Welcomed Bennett-Lapid merger; party remains separate
Naftali Bennett and Yair Lapid—the two former Israeli prime ministers who briefly removed Benjamin Netanyahu from power in 2021—announced on April 26 the merger of their parties into a single slate called 'Together, Led by Bennett.' Netanyahu responded within hours with an inflammatory video on social media showing the pair's 2021 coalition-signing ceremony alongside Arab party leader Mansour Abbas, captioned 'They did it once, they will do it again'—framing a future government dependent on Arab parties as an inevitable consequence of any Bennett-Lapid win.
