This happened even before the announcement of the agreement between Benny Gantz, former chief of staff at the head of the new Resilience Party, and Yair Lapid, leader of the Yesh Atid centrist party (11 seats out of 120 in the outgoing Parliament).\nOn Wednesday the 6th,\u00a0he signed an agreement pushing several groups to the far right of the political spectrum to unite for the legislative elections, at the risk of being accused of having brought a “racist” extreme right-wing group into the Knesset.\nNetanyahu\u2019s rivals team up\nThe objective is not to let right-wing voices scatter over small lists that would ultimately not get enough votes to be represented in Parliament. Mr. Gantz and Mr. Lapid invoked Mr. Netanyahu’s manoeuvre and investigations to justify their alliance, as well as “their deep sense of national responsibility”.\nIn a speech on Thursday evening with Mr. Lapid, Mr. Gantz denounced Mr. Netanyahu’s power, accusing him of being responsible for the “bad wind blowing in our streets”.\nBenny Gantz : the most serious challenger to Netanyahu\nThe Kahol Lavan movement, born from the alliance of Benny Gantz with Yair Lapid, on 21stFebruary, has finally released, on Wednesday 6th of March, a 45-page document listingproposals for the legislative elections on the 9th of April.\nThis formation, which questions the victory announced so far by Prime Minister Benyamin Netanyahu, focuses on its triple indictment procedure. With one month to go before the election, Kahol Lavan surpasses Netanyahu’s Likud in the polls.\nSince founding the “Resilience for Israel” party, Benny Gantzhas emerged as the most serious challenger to the unsinkable Netanyahu, who has spent thirteen years in power, including ten consecutive years since March 2009 after a first term from 1996 to 1999.\n","author":42,"featured_media":5664,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","template":"","tags":[5761,5750,5759],"location":[1021],"class_list":["post-28470","news","type-news","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","tag-decision-makers","tag-news","tag-politics","location-israel"],"short_url":"","have_related_news":null,"chapo":"Benjamin Netanyahu's two main rivals have formed an alliance, a month and a half before the legislative elections, which should enable them to slightly threaten the long reign of the Prime Minister who is already facing the risk of charges of alleged corruption.","media":{"src":"https:\/\/www.ecomnewsmed.com\/app\/uploads\/2020\/03\/capture-d\u2019e\u0301cran-2019-03-11-a\u0300-17.29.38-1.png","srcset":"https:\/\/www.ecomnewsmed.com\/app\/uploads\/2020\/03\/capture-d\u2019e\u0301cran-2019-03-11-a\u0300-17.29.38-1.png 550w","sizes":"550px","alt":"Israel: who are Netanyahu\u2019s competitors in the legislative elections? 1","width":550,"height":360,"ratio":0.68,"credit_photo":""},"media-news-header":{"src":"https:\/\/www.ecomnewsmed.com\/app\/uploads\/2020\/03\/capture-d\u2019e\u0301cran-2019-03-11-a\u0300-17.29.38-1.png","srcset":"https:\/\/www.ecomnewsmed.com\/app\/uploads\/2020\/03\/capture-d\u2019e\u0301cran-2019-03-11-a\u0300-17.29.38-1.png 1170w","sizes":"1170px","alt":"Israel: who are Netanyahu\u2019s competitors in the legislative elections? 1","width":1170,"height":658,"ratio":0.68,"credit_photo":""},"acf":[],"yoast_head":"\nIsrael: who are Netanyahu\u2019s competitors in the legislative elections? - Ecomnews Med<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Launching\u00a0his campaign,\u00a0Benjamin Netanyahu, who has been in office for a decade, headed a little further to the right.
