After “Israeli” Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu failed to form a majority government for the fourth time in two years, the apartheid entity’s President Reuven Rivlin decided to give another contender a chance. 

The head of the opposition, Yair Lapid, will now have 28 days to forge alliances and collect the 61 signatures needed to become PM.

His mandate is set to expire on 2 June, after which he can ask for a two-weeks extension. However, if he fails to forge alliances by the end of this term, the mandate will go back to the Knesset, which will have 21 days to find another candidate, who would be entrusted with the same task. The failure to produce such a contender will mean that “Israel” will be heading to yet another round of general polls.

In the past, critics accused Lapid of being absent too often from the Knesset, not putting forward laws and legislation, travelling abroad far too much, and promoting "undemocratic" values within his own ‘Yesh Atid’ party.

Recently, during the four rounds of pre-election campaigns, he was slammed for not having any specific agenda rather than that of removing Netanyahu from office and for shouting too loud, while doing too little.
