Change bloc

With those two parties together, they could get a majority, but there is a really big problem, which is that an alliance with the Arab parties has been so demonised and most of the change block leaders committed not to have any kind of alliance, either directly or indirectly, with the Arab parties.

So I am not jealous of the leaders of the change bloc and of the dilemmas that they have on their table right now.

And let's just describe what happened with the leaders of the change bloc.

Now, they ran this election on the promise that them being voices that emerged from the right and the center, Naftali Bennett with his right-wing history, Avigdor Lieberman with his right-wing history, Gadi Eisenkot with the fact that he's a Moroccan Jew and he came from the periphery, they ran on this promise that they would be able to turn Netanyahu voters to their camp.

And they failed to do that.

And I have to admit, a lot of us were living in that echo chamber with them, right? A lot of us thought, how, after October 7th, could someone even think to vote Netanyahu again? How, after Catalgate, called the biggest treason in the history of the country, within Netanyahu's most inner circle, But how could possibly someone vote for Likud knowing that these things happen? And here they did.

They voted for Likud by the masses.

Likud cities, unchanged, unchanged by all these promises by the change bloc.
