Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu opened Monday's meeting of the Likud Knesset faction with an invitation to listen to his speech at this afternoon's opening of the Knesset's winter session.
Netanyahu publicly shook off Member of Knesset David Bitan's attack this morning on Israel Defense Forces Chief of Staff Gadi Eizenkot, saying, "We are active on several fronts and we are working all the time, and I want to tell you and my friend David, the chief of staff is doing an excellent job and we are working together. That's the truth."
