benjamin netanyahu needed to expand the cabinet. administers.ecause of what happened in the run-up to the coalition negotiations. to form his government. netanyahu needed to give away important positions including the justice ministry. that left him with very little to give his own party. that's why he need to expand the government. he need to expand the cabinet to make his own party happy to stabilize his government. right now, john, this government off to a troubled, very rocky start, we'll see how it goes from here. >> one last question, oren, while we have you. if the strategy of calling this election which we didn't have to call was increase stability of his coalition. and left with fewer members. is this, equivalent of loading the shotgun. aiming at your foot and firing? >> we have to find that out over the next few weeks. especially after speaking with him, a small government, right-wing government could be a strong government. the parties are leaned up. doesn't look like that right now. we look at the government. we see tremendous pressu

all of this being said, as i mentioned, he was a critical part of benjamin netanyahu's plans. he now has to rely on yet another religious party and the predominantly movement jewish home to be able to get that at 61 seats at least within his government, going to be a very difficult few days for netanyahu. >> any of the successor foreign minister-wise, is there anyone else around who would take that possibly and would they be as hawkish, do you think? >> well, there is no clear success at this particular point, certainly in the coalition talks that knelt net has been holding. the only person who threw his hat into the ring as foreign minister was lieberman himself. now that he's stepped out of the race now that he's made clear he will not be part of the coalition government, we're going to be getting some names hats thrown into the ring in the days ahead. very unlikely that he would have a foreign minister again of lieberman's ilk. that being said, the kind of government netanyahu is envisions is a right wing one with its pillars in the religious parties. it would not be surpri

the concessions made will only be apparent in the coming days as benjamin netanyahu has his cabinet. but this will be a government of extreme right wing sensibility. hope in the settlement movement. calling for more settlements and not less, and calling for the expulsion of palestinians in the occupied west bank. two orthodox religious parties which have been granted the pledge of renewed state we have benefits for the ultra religious, and ex solution from military service for religious students. the inevitable increase in state expenditure would in turn put pressure on the finance depth. he brought the party back into the fold. it could take the withdrawal of support by just a single member of one of the coalition's parties to bring the government down. so at the end of weeks of negotiations, benjamin netanyahu is left with a slim, one seat majority in parliament that will be a weak government that's essentially at the mercy of the settler movements and two small religious parties. ♪ and coincidently on this evening, it's an annual religious festival. but with these dances as they c
