Livni calls on Center-Left to form bloc to take down Netanyahu
(Worthy News) – Opposition leader Tzipi Livni begged her fellow leaders of the Center-Left on Tuesday to act unselfishly in order to defeat Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu in the April 9 general election, as two new parties were announced earlier in the day.
Speaking at an event of the Israel Democracy Institute and Interdisciplinary Center, Livni said Attorney-General Avichai Mandelblit’s forthcoming ruling on Netanyahu’s criminal cases could help decide the election and create an opportunity for her camp to win if it handles the race smartly.
“All those who are partners in our path and who declare that they are putting the good of the state first, must also be a partner to unifying us,” Livni said. “We can form a larger, winning team, but all of us must set our egos aside for our joint goal of a political upheaval. We must say first state, then party, then ourselves.” [ Source: Jerusalem Post (Read More…) ]
