Former Shin Bet chief MK Avi Dichter of the Likud participated in the Ma'ariv conference on security.
Dichter was asked about Benny Gantz and replied, "This is a completely different movie than what he knows, it's a different style and has other requirements. He has some chutzpah to jump from the ground to the position of prime minister. There's no precedent. No one dared to jump like that. The public isn't a sucker. They know what a prime minister is, so I'm optimistic about this issue."
