How high is the tension between Netanyahu and Amsalem? One picture or one video is worth a thousand words:
after Aslam was absent from the Halkod faction meeting that took place today (Monday), Netanyahu passed by Aslam after talking to various members of the Knesset, but as you can see the two do not even exchange a glance.

Assalam attacked Netanyahu harshly last Friday when dozens of Likud activists were gathered around him and said: "The one who decided not to give me the position of Knesset Speaker is the Prime Minister.
I asked him, explain to me why I can't be in the position?
He told me stories of Ali Baba, who is afraid that I will settle accounts with the opposition."

"Of course I will come to an account," the Knesset member fumed.
"What does he want? That we send them bouquets of flowers? There was humiliation aimed at me, I said to the Prime Minister - 'You were chosen in first place and I respect that, but don't forget that I was chosen in fourth place'. The same audience that chose you - chose me. I am not asking for any Something that I don't deserve according to the order. I deserve it. You gave Rival Levin Achla, you gave Galant security, Eli Cohen and where is David Amsalam? You skip over me? We Sephards will never humiliate us, no one, ever. No one will humiliate the people of the Mizrah Not even a Prime Minister from Likud."
From a confrontation with the Prime Minister to a confrontation with the head of the opposition
In the meantime, Lapid spoke in the plenary and said: "There is one question that the new government is not ready to answer: Who will pay? Who will pay the price of everything they are doing to the State of Israel? When an intifada breaks out here because Ben Gabir is chasing irresponsible publicity, who will pay? Which Businesses will burn, which cities will burn, which images will be broadcast all over the world? Who will pay with their lives? When Levin's rival completes his coup d'état and Israel ceases to be a democracy - because if he implements even a part of his plans, we are no longer a democracy - who will pay? Who will pay for it? Shouldn't there be a court in Israel?"
In response, Amsalam called out to him: "Serve like a man in the IDF."
Do a reserve week.
Put on a vest for fifteen minutes."
