Former Israeli Prime Minister Naftali Bennett is actively preparing for a return to the political arena, according to a report by Chadashot Sof Shavua. Bennett has reportedly reached out to over 100 activists as part of a broader strategy to reestablish his political presence. One key figure in this effort is a woman described as the “head of the field headquarters,” who has begun sending out text messages to rally support.
Bennett�s resurgence comes amid recent polls showing him as a strong contender for the prime ministerial position. A poll conducted by Ulpan Shishi revealed that 40% of respondents viewed Bennett as the best candidate for the role, compared to 29% who favored current Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. Meanwhile, a quarter of respondents did not support either candidate, and 6% remained undecided.
When posed against opposition leader MK Yair Lapid, Netanyahu held a slight edge, garnering 31% support compared to 29% for Lapid. However, a significant 34% of respondents indicated that they believe neither is a suitable candidate for prime minister.
These results suggest that Bennett�s potential return could significantly shift the Israeli political landscape, as many voters appear disillusioned with both the current leadership and the primary opposition?.

may he rot in hades and may what ever he attempts to do be downsized…..Shame on the evil basket of horror,
pure schmutz
Bennett, like any non-Likud right-center party in Israel has the inherent problem in that regardless of their views keeping the West Bank or fighting terrorists, they can never be part of a majority without working with Likud and the Hareidim, as well as the nationalist parties. The Israeli right-center-Hareidi “camp” has roughly 2/3 of the Kenesset seats, but has trouble squeezing a 61 seat majority. If someone like Bennett gives up his hatred of Netanyahu and the Hareidim, he can form a coalition with a commanding majority.
Bennett put the Left in power last time when he took office with the Left, after having lied during the election promising to be part of a right wing coalition.
We need him back
Like Covid or pneumonia. A leftest Laborite that nearly destroyed Isreal with his cowardly give away mentality
I met his cousin here in Sonoma County. She supports like him a terrorist country. The family (per her words) have never supported Israel. Bennett proved it as PM!
If I could, I would write in Moshe Feiglin for PM!
Last time, he sold chareidim down the river letting lapid and Lieberman impose their terrible cuts on Kollel learners without even a intro period
