Opposition figures Naftali Bennett and Avigdor Liberman have publicly outlined a legislative agenda aimed at restructuring the Israeli premiership should their coalition succeed in the upcoming election. The proposed measures include the implementation of term limits for the Prime Minister and a legal prohibition preventing any member of the Knesset under criminal indictment from serving as Prime Minister.

Beyond these specific restrictions, the opposition leaders have signaled their intent to replace the current Knesset speaker as a primary step to facilitate the passage of these laws. The strategy appears designed to prevent Benjamin Netanyahu from returning to power, given his ongoing legal challenges. In response to these announcements, Benjamin Netanyahu has characterized the opposition's efforts as a direct challenge to his leadership, urging his supporters to ensure a high voter turnout to counter these legislative goals.

The report from the Times of Israel notes that these plans are part of a broader effort by the opposition to consolidate power and enact structural changes to the office of the Prime Minister. While the opposition frames these moves as necessary for political integrity, supporters of the current administration view them as targeted political maneuvers intended to disqualify a sitting leader through legislative means rather than at the ballot box.
