Veteran journalist and commentator Amit Segal said tonight (Monday) that he believes the government will pass a ceasefire deal by a large and even "crushing" majority, despite increasingly vocal opposition from local leaders and the coalition's voters.
Segal said that support for the deal is as deep within the government as opposition is within the coalition's voter base, as a recent poll by Channel 14 demonstrated. Segal says that all heads of the coalition parties support it, and that even Itamar Ben Gvir has not threatened to bring the government down over the deal.
According to Segal, the deal, while being marketed as a temporary truce for two months until Trump becomes President, is unlikely to be unraveled so quickly, and that in the event of real Hezbollah rearmament, the IDF will likely be forced to launch a much more forceful and devastating invasion of Lebanon.
