"This discourse may be interpreted among certain groups or individuals, as one that permits violent and illegal activity that may even cause physical harm," he said. Lapid and Bennett have said they hope their"unity government" will heal deep political divides among Israelis and end hate. A poll by Israel's N12 Television's Meet the Press on Saturday showed that 46per cent of Israelis support the Bennett-Lapid government, 38per cent would prefer another election - the fifth in about two years - and 15per cent did not state a preference.
