Knesset Speaker Amir Ohana was asked at Ynet and Yedioth Ahronoth's 'The People of the State' conference about the Ynet report on the team established by Likud in hopes of bringing defectors from Eisenkot's party, and responded: "I want to believe that there are people on Eisenkot's list who don't think Israel kills babies as a hobby, who don't think the Islamic Movement should dictate the tone. There are no defectors in Likud. Eisenkot should stay with one eye open. The likelihood is low in our context."
