66% of Israelis Want Netanyahu to Quit Politics

Sixty-six percent of Israelis want Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to retire from politics.

The poll conducted by Israel’s Channel 12, Friday, shows two-thirds of Israelis believe the 74-year-old prime minister should not run for a seventh-term in office.

However, 27 percent of respondents in the poll, said that he should continue to run and thy would support him.

Another poll by the Maariv newspaper show Benny Gantz, leader of the National Unity Party and who recently quit the war cabinet, is beating Netanyahu for the post of prime minister.

However, Netanyahu is against the holding of early elections and means such polls have no prospect of seeing the light of day.

More than 37,700 Palestinians have since been killed in Gaza, most of them women and children, and over 86,500 injured, according to local health authorities.
