NOURNEWS - Benjamin Netanyahu has been assigned to form a cabinet in the occupied territories, and many analysts believe that he has a very difficult task ahead of him due to the composition of his coalition.
This difficulty is due to the fact that the approach of religious extreme right parties as coalition parties with Likud is so extreme that even an extreme person like Netanyahu has worried and forced him to plan a coalition with left and middle parties.
The conditions created for Netanyahu due to the preconditions that the religious extremists had for him to participate in the cabinet have gone so far that even the domestic media have reached the point in them analyzes that they do not evaluate the life of this government for more than a few months.
In this regard; The Zionist publication "Yediot Aharanot" in a note entitled "Negotiations for the formation of the government are still continuing" recalled the political developments of 2003 and the birth of Kadima from Likud and wrote:
The coalition negotiation sessions were held on Thursday with the reluctance of the parties, and the unwillingness of those involved to have a real discussion about the basic lines of the next government brought the negotiations to a dead end. Since Likud announced immediately after the election that it intended to make good concessions to coalition partners in coalition talks, it led to speculation that not only would a right-wing government be formed quickly, but in the coming years. It will also have good stability.
This note continues: However, this generosity of Likud was soon met with the growing appetite of allies, and as a result, caused fear in Netanyahu's party and tied up negotiations, as at the height of tensions between Netanyahu and party leader Bezalel Smotrich. Religious Zionism over the division of the treasury and the defense portfolio revived the debates of the 2003 elections.
The note taker Aharanoot wrote; Like these days, at that time in 2003, the days of Likud's euphoria and victory, and similarly, the Knesset was surrounded by an oppressed opposition, however, internal struggles and debates in Likud gradually increased and criticism of Ariel Sharon's policies "Palestinian resistance [against terrorism] increased at the height of the second intifada, until a little later, the secession plan of the rebel faction led to the departure of Sharon and a group of Knesset members from Likud and the establishment of the Kadima party.
This note emphasized; While the existing differences do not necessarily mean a split in Likud is imminent, there are commonalities that are hard to ignore, as even a decisive victory can be painful when you have partners looking for more.
Narrating what happened after the announcement of the election results, Aharanot added: Although Netanyahu did not insist on his election promise to maintain the security, financial and foreign portfolio in Likud, instead of the negotiations ending in a few days, due to the strictness of the parties, the stubbornness Negative atmosphere, exchange of accusations and useless briefings have lasted until now.
This note has finally emphasized that the coalition parties with Likud are trying to extort money from the new government and naturally they will not bring good things to the government in the future. There is no election and they should be given points.
Aharanot wrote at the end; A government will be formed eventually, but this exchange of accusations suggests that the next term may be a lot more interesting than we thought!!
