Saar: "We will not enter the Netanyahu government" (Photo: Niv Aharonson)

Most of the party leaders asked last night (Tuesday) to wait for the official results of the 24th Knesset elections, most of them imposed a temporary silence but one of them already understood that the next round for him ended in a loss.

New Tikva chairman Gideon Saar stood on the stage at party headquarters last night, admitting that he had hoped for a better result. The party, which initially received more than 20 seats in the polls, won only five to six, according to the samples, which is a rather disappointing result. .



If you remember the early days of new hope, Saar had another dream: to add to the list under the Gadi Eizenkot number 2 and pull votes from the center and along the right-wing voters are fed up with Benjamin Netanyahu to take the premiership. eisenkot left out, and the end was already known in closing notes: Saar remains With a very right-wing list. The



political logic was that Saar and Bennett should have run together, in one list that would unite the right that wants Netanyahu outside Balfour. Compete with each other, lose momentum, bleed in polls and find themselves wasting their time trying to persuade people not to vote for the party that most closely resembles them.

The ascent stopped, and the bleeding began.

The assumption was that whichever of the two candidates would get more seats could still swear in a government, but according to the apparent results - both were left with almost no political choice.

It is not clear to Bennett that it will be possible at all to enter a government headed by Netanyahu if the end result does not provide 61 seats, and Saar will not really be able to sit in the government together with Labor and Meretz.

The latter may at least be able to take solace in the achievement that two to four seats he managed to achieve on the right probably blocked Netanyahu's path to forming a government.

The law that puts Netanyahu out of the game: the scenario that threatens the prime minister

Had to run together according to political logic.

Bennett said during the campaign that "Netanyahu can only be replaced by the right," but the lukewarm result he received, along with the crash of Saar, mainly shows that as long as Netanyahu is in office, it is a difficult to impossible move.

The elections to the 24th Knesset show that anyone who wants to be Netanyahu's "heir" will find it difficult to do so if on the way he thinks of preventing a government headed by him.

The heir will be from home.

It has long been no struggle for a way or an ideology.

Israel's next leader, if he comes from the right, will be a "babysitter" who supports uncompromising support for his moves and positions, even if these are done for his personal benefit.

It is Netanyahu who will mark him an "heir" and mark him as such.

Those who tried otherwise, failed.



Still, there is one way Saar and Bennett can find themselves back on track.

If a bloc of Netanyahu's opponents succeeds in obtaining 61 seats, it will be possible to advance a law in the Knesset against Netanyahu who is serving indictments.

In such a situation, the two will face a key dilemma that may also be cruel: Should Netanyahu mark the expiration date?
