Gadi Eisenkot, a former Israeli military chief, is attempting a low-profile campaign to remove Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu from power, according to Al-Monitor. Eisenkot typically dresses in plain black, speaks halting English, and responds in interviews using bullet-point lists—habits shaped by his military background.
The effort represents a potential challenge to Netanyahu's political dominance, though details of Eisenkot's specific strategy and political base remain limited in available reporting.
