[Netanyahu was exposed and Eisenkot warned him not to use force against Iraq] November 12, according to Israeli media reports on the 11th, the leader of the Integrity Party, Gadi Eisenkot, who is seeking to form a new government, and the Chief of Staff of the Israel Defense Forces Zamir, both opposed the caretaker Prime Minister Netanyahu’s recent plan to take military action against Iran. The Times of Israel reported on the 11th that Eisenkot sent a letter to Netanyahu that day, urging the latter not to deploy troops without a direct threat. Eisenkot warned that doing so during the current government transition could have "devastating consequences" for Israeli democracy and asked Netanyahu to exercise restraint and caution. Although Eisenkot did not mention Iran directly in his letter, Israeli media said Netanyahu was seeking military action against Iran. (Xinhua News Agency)
