Joint List offers support to any coalition seeking to oust Netanyahu
The mainly Arab Joint List says it is willing to provide an electoral safety net for any coalition seeking to remove Benjamin Netanyahu from power.
The offer could be aimed at Gadi Eisenkot, an opposition front-runner.
Eisenkot has said he does not seek support from Arab parties.
But he may need backing from the Joint List and Mansour Abbas’s Ra’am party to unseat Netanyahu.

Separately, Ofer Winter’s party criticizes Netanyahu’s government but says it will serve only in a right-wing government led by Netanyahu.
The political alignments described leave open whether an anti-Netanyahu coalition can form and who would support it.
