Three days before the national elections, Likud candidate for Knesset and former IDF chief of staff Lt.-Gen. (res.) Moshe Ya'alon warned voters that after the elections, Israel Beiteinu Avigdor Lieberman could recommend to the president that Tzipi Livni build the coalition, Army Radio reported.
Ya'alon therefore urged supporters of Likud chairman Binyamin Netanyahu to vote for Likud.
"If you want Netanyahu as prime minister, you must vote for Likud, and not for other right-wing parties," he reportedly said at a meeting in Shoham Saturday.
