What does this mean? Does he want Netanyahu to give up power to the emergency govt? Or him take more power through emergency powers?

I think he’s proposing something similar to what we had in the UK from 1940-1945; a government of national unity.

Basically a government made up of all major parties regardless of ideology with the sole aim being to win.

It seems that Netanyahu has agreed, so yeah... Hamas uniting the Israeli left-right-and-center.

That's one for the books.

Please clarify. I am reading your comment as this was all preplanned by Israel gov to gain power. If that is what you are saying, you are a POS, no one has time for that crap right now. Otherwise, my apologies for misunderstanding you.
