Netanyahu rules out coalition with Arab parties, calls them 'terror supporters'

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said a government cannot be formed with 'terror supporters' from the United Arab List and the Joint List parties.

Netanyahu's office also stated that a letter from Gadi Eisenkot, who is expected to form the new government, was an irresponsible move and amounted to politicizing national security.

Hebrew media reports indicated that Netanyahu is considering a possible rotation of the premiership with Gadi Eisenkot as part of ongoing political negotiations.
