Jewish Home leader Naftali Bennett responded to the words of Prime Minister Netanyahu at the Makor Rishon Conference, claiming that "I am a strong right-wing, I don't need reinforcement."
Bennett said "I really respect the Prime Minister but the truth is that when the Jewish Home is strong the Likud is a strong right, but when the Jewish Home is weak, the Likud makes disengagements , announces a Palestinian state and releases a thousand terrorists. When the Jewish Home is strong, the Likud backtracks on a Palestinian state.
