Israeli President Isaac Herzog tasked Gadi Eisenkot with forming a government on Sunday, dealing a setback to Benjamin Netanyahu after Eisenkot received the recommendations of 67 lawmakers, compared with 46 for Netanyahu. Eisenkot is seeking to form a “national emergency government” with the support of opposition parties. Arab parties may lend it support from outside the government, but he faces several obstacles, chief among them Avigdor Lieberman’s opposition to a government that relies on Arab parties and disagreement over exempting the Haredim from military service. Eisenkot has 28 days to negotiate, with the possibility of a 14-day extension. If he fails, the mandate passes to Netanyahu. But Netanyahu’s paper majority in parliament does not guarantee that he will be able to form a government.
