Summary

Right-wing Israeli leader who, in Walid Habbas’s account, championed Shrinking the conflict alongside Yair Lapid; the brief prints his given name as “Neftali Bennett” (Shrinking the Conflict: Debunking Israel’s New Strategy, line 173).

Details

  • The approach was championed by right-wing “Neftali Bennett” (as printed) and so-called centrist Yair Lapid alike, and appears explicitly in the New Hope party’s electoral program (line 173).
  • Netanyahu’s extremist coalition, which replaced the Bennett and Lapid governments, is not likely to follow Bennett and Lapid’s proposals for supposedly “shrinking the conflict” (line 205).
