The Knesset

Sources in the Likud said that the chances of their recommending Bennett were low.

The relatives of victims of terrorism stated that they would fight a government that would receive outside support from Ra'am or the Joint Arab List.

Meanwhile, Netanyahu's pick for his albeit temporary successor is his sworn rival, Naftali Bennett.

"A government of that sort will not promote settlement, construction, and sovereignty, will not battle terrorism, domestic marauders, and external enemies."

Bezalel Smotrich might as well be considered the leader of Religious Zionism, the concept.

"The court or the attorney general should not place themselves as a super-government," Netanyahu said in his response to the court.

Netanyahu simply informed Gantz: "You can oppose it as much as you want, we're voting – let's go ahead."

"We haven't finished dealing with violence, but we have to deal with the deep roots of the problem."

Odeh declared: "This wonderful and honorable victory belongs to the youth of Jerusalem.

Tibi turned to the committee members from Yesh Atid and told them, "Do you think it's raining? They are spitting in your face, you at Yesh Atid."

*This is becoming a trend of violence and incitement bordering on terrorism.”

Everyone in Israel's political system other than Netanyahu only stands to lose from a fifth round.

Israel is heading to the only positive, dare I say inevitable outcome.

The Arrangements Committee is the first Knesset panel to be formed after an election and is given control over the entire legislative agenda.

The bill doesn't create a coalition, but does give legitimacy and a mandate to the winner that might convince the nay-sayers to join the coalition of the winner.

In Facebook post marking Palestinian Prisoners Day, Ofer Cassif, who was injured by police at an eastern Jerusalem protest last week, calls for an end to the “occupation.”

"It's in your hands," Smotrich concluded, "Save the State of Israel, and don't miss the moment."

"This is the moment I have been waiting for; the moment that I get up to speak and they, the supporters of terror . . . exit."

Rabbi Meir Kahane probably would have enjoyed this turn of events.

Israeli attorney general Avichai Mandelblit decides not to put her Balad Party on trial despite evidence indicating its guilt, citing potential harm to a “wider circle.”

Shouldn't Speaker Levin start proceedings to expel the Joint Arab List from the Knesset?

"With malice toward none; with charity for all; with firmness in the right, …let us strive on to finish the work we are in; to bind up the nation’s wounds."

The resignation is further proof of the reports that Yesh Atid chairman Yair Lapid has struck a deal with Bennett for a coalition government.

Yair Lapid said in a meeting behind-closed-doors that there was progress in his talks with Yemina chairman Naftali Bennett.

Matan Peleg, CEO of Im Tirtzu that initiated the move, said that the letter was a wake-up call to the heads of the Zionist parties.

United Torah Judaism chairman Moshe Gafni on Sunday attacked the chairman of Religious Zionism Bezalel Smotrich in the Haredi newspaper Yated Ne'eman.

Say what you will about Bezalel Smotrich, the man is a great dreamer. And this time around, the math is in his favor.

The very party that received artificial respiration from the prime minister refuses to return the favor because he relies on an Islamic party.

The radical change in Netanyahu's strategy happened after President Rivlin said he would give the mandate to form a government to the candidate most likely to succeed.

According to some media outlets in Israel, the Lapid camp is ready to offer Bennett a rotation deal, according to which he would serve as prime minister for the first year.
