Chairman Benny Gantz of the Blue and White Party has responded to the emerging union between the New Right and the Jewish Home by saying, "Today is the first step in [Prime Minister Binyamin] Netanyahu's overall campaign to form a government of immunity [from corruption indictments]."
Gantz continued, "The next step in the alliance of extremists established under the auspices of Netanyahu is the joining of the Kahanists who seek to create a monarchy for him." He concluded, "Today the choice is clear - it is either a unity government and a broad national democratic consensus headed by Blue and White or a government of extremists and immunity."
