Netanyahu's rival, Eisenkot, stated that the State Security Directorate (Shin Bet) must conduct a fair, comprehensive, and immediate investigation into the allegations. Anyone found to have undermined or attempted to undermine the integrity of the elections must be dealt with with an iron fist. Netanyahu, accustomed to dealing with reality through lies, psychological manipulation, and spreading confusion, is leading a campaign with his associates to exert undue influence on the Israeli public, aiming to delay the timely release of election results and create a false illegitimacy of the 26th Knesset. Attempts to challenge official election results using information are unacceptable and must be rejected immediately. The Israeli public voted against a failed government in these elections.
