Netanyahu
VS
Ben-Gvir
Benjamin Netanyahu is the Prime Minister of Israel, a veteran politician who has led the country for multiple terms and represents the right-wing Likud party.
Itamar Ben-Gvir is an Israeli politician and lawyer who has served as the minister of national security since 2022, known for his far-right and extremist views, including advocating for aggressive military actions in Gaza.
Both are key figures in the current Israeli government, with Ben-Gvir serving in Netanyahu's cabinet.
The two have conflicting interests over the direction of Israeli policy and political strategy.
Netanyahu, while occasionally rebuking Ben-Gvir under international pressure, remains politically dependent on him, as Ben-Gvir's support is crucial for the coalition's stability.
Ben-Gvir, on the other hand, pushes for more extreme measures and has clashed with Palestinians in the occupied territories, while also facing backlash for taunting detained activists.
Their rivalry is further fueled by Ben-Gvir's threats to leave the government, which could destabilize Netanyahu's rule.
The stakes are high, as the tension between the two reflects broader polarisation in Israeli politics, with Ben-Gvir representing a more radical faction that challenges Netanyahu's more pragmatic approach.
The discovery of the sunken Altalena ship has added a historical dimension to their rivalry, with both claiming to be the true heir of the Irgun militia's legacy, symbolizing their contest over the future of right-wing politics in Israel.
