Opposition leader and chairman of Yesh Atid, Yair Lapid, today (Saturday) called on Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to confront him tonight: “Come to the Bibi confrontation. I’m not going to sit in the studios as your warm-up band. You said I was your opponent, facing the opponent. You asked ‘Where is the torch?’. here I am. “Come and stand in front of me for tonight’s confrontation,” Lapid said.
The Israeli public deserves a confrontation. He deserves answers. A confrontation will put on the table what is really at stake. The public deserves to know which government Netanyahu is trying to form here. Litzman and Smutrich, Deri and Ben Gvir, a dark, racist, extortionate and chauvinistic government.
Bibi, came to the confrontation tonight.

According to Lapid, “the Israeli public deserves a confrontation. It deserves answers. It needs to know which government you are trying to form here.” He noted that “the studios are ready, the interviewers are ready, there are two podiums waiting. For many months you put me on billboards, gave speeches, made videos against me. Let’s see if you meant it seriously. Let’s see if you really want a confrontation, or you run away. Let’s see if Bibi escapes. “
“A confrontation will put on the table what is really on the table,” the Knesset member said, adding: “The public deserves to know what a frightening government Netanyahu is trying to form here. And bury Israeli democracy. With this composition, Israel will be a much more religious, much poorer, democracy-minus state. It will no longer be the state of people who work, serve in the army, pay taxes. They will have a government that hates them and in that their values. The results will be terrible. “.
