A Way to Solve the Government Impasse in Israel

October 5, 2019 --

Israel President Reuven Rivlin should call in Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and challenger Benny Gantz and say to them something like this: "As I am convinced the people of Israel oppose yet another election and want the current stalemate ended, here is my solution: First, Bibi, you must step down, consider it like taking a sabbatical.

Second, Gantz, your Blue and White party will form the government with Likud. Third, the Knesset will grant Bibi immunity from prosecution on the rumored current charges. Now get it done. Shalom."
