Former Labor Party Knesset member Eitan Cabel said on Thursday "It is possible that Barak's entry [into the September Knesset elections] will bring an end to Labor's life."
The former party secretary-general said, "I do not think of him well. I have a long memory. Unfortunately Labor Party supporters don't. Barak convinced me twice to go with him [and] said he came to lead Israel and in the end decided to go with Netanyahu. It will happen again."
