PM Olmert is expected to attend the event on the 45th anniversary of the settlement • The visit: Against the background of the assessments that Bennett is trying to "break to the right" ahead of possible elections


Smells like an election?

For the first time since he began serving as prime minister, Naftali Bennett will arrive this coming Tuesday to visit an Israeli settlement across the Green Line.

This is what Israel Today has learned.

Bennett was invited to the celebrations of the 45th anniversary of the founding of the settlement of Elkana in western Samaria, and his office confirmed that he intends to attend.

Bennett, who previously served as director general of the Yesha Council and was identified with the settlement project in Judea and Samaria, has refrained from visiting the area in the past year.

The visit comes against the background of the assessment that the government's days are numbered and elections will be held soon.

Various factors estimated when as a result Bennett began to "break right".

In addition, last weekend, Bennett's political adviser, Shimrit Meir, announced that she was leaving her post.

She has been singled out as being responsible for Bennett's "concentration" in the eyes of some sources.
