ציר ביטן נגד נתניהו: כינוס הליכוד החל באיחור, הפריימריז עשוי להידחות

הערכה

The Likud's internal power struggle is playing out in real time as the party's constitution committee delays its meeting for Prime Minister Netanyahu's arrival. The core dispute is whether to hold full primaries or a different selection method for the Knesset list, with MK David Bitan working behind the scenes to secure a majority for regular primaries plus three reserved slots for Netanyahu. The delay itself signals that Netanyahu's personal schedule still dictates party mechanics, and the possibility of another postponement suggests the leadership is not eager for a quick resolution. The quiet support Bitan is gathering from fellow MKs and ministers indicates a faction is testing its strength against the prime minister's control.
