Eisenkot hits Netanyahu
Yashar party leader Gadi Eisenkot described Donald Trump’s announcement that US financial aid to Israel would be gradually halted as further evidence that Benjamin Netanyahu must leave office. He criticized the security establishment’s failure to be informed of the decision and accused the prime minister of acting unilaterally and leading a government backed by only 46 members of the Knesset. Trump said the annual funding of $4 billion would stop by the end of the year. However, a memorandum of understanding provides for $3.8 billion in annual military aid through 2028, without clarifying how it could be ended before then. This comes amid declining US support for Israel: 48% of Americans believe that support has gone beyond reasonable limits, rising to 66% among Democrats. Meanwhile, the change camp is seeking to prevent another election and bring Netanyahu’s rule to an end.
