Speaking with The Times of Israel on June 11 at the campaign headquarters of Together, the new, merged party he leads with former prime minister Yair Lapid, Bennett said Israel is facing “an existential moment,” and warned that another term under the current government would leave the country without a functioning economy, society or international position.
“Another four years with this government, we won’t have an economy, we won’t have a society,” he warned. “The Haredi issue will just crash us all. We won’t have an international standing anywhere. We have to act now.”
And so, this week, we ask Naftali Bennett, what matters now?
