Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu today spoke to the CFL about two of the leaders of Blue and White - Benny Gantz and Gabi Ashkenazi.
About Gantz, Netanyahu said: "I am ready for a confrontation with Gantz now live on all channels. I do not enter the personal life of one or the other candidate. That is not the question. The main thing is this - Israeli Prime Minister must face great pressure. Gantz cannot stand the pressure "In the face of a confrontation. It can't be that the Israeli prime minister is being squeezed in front of Iran, and he can't be in a position to press anyone. I think Gantz should ask what was on his mobile."
On Ashkenazi, Prime Minister Olmert said: "Gabi Ashkenazi has tried to join the Likud several times and refused. I believe that if Gabi Ashkenazi's recordings are published, he will be forced to retire from politics. He is a frustrated person.
In response to Bernie Sanders' statement last night that "Netanyahu is a reactionary and a racist," the prime minister said: "I have not hesitated in the past to act with the president of the United States who has different positions."
