Yesh Atid chairman Gadi Eisenkot responded to comments by Yisrael Beiteinu chairman Avigdor Liberman, who said that "Eisenkot is Gantz 2. He is working to form a government with Benjamin Netanyahu, Yitzhak Goldknopf and Aryeh Deri." Eisenkot, who did not mention Liberman at all in his response, wrote that he "asks Israelis who yearn for change to ignore the spinners and raise their heads toward the great victory we will bring for the benefit of the State of Israel. After the heavy prices we have paid, the people of Israel will not forgive politicians who will not rise to the magnitude of the hour, because of a seat and personal interests, and will prevent the replacement of the October 7 government. Don't be pressured by background noise. Change is on the way!"
