Yonatan Urich, the opposition leader's media and social media advisor for 7 years, said in an interview he gave to Nadav Perry's new podcast 'Houn Shelton' that he believes Netanyahu will win back the premiership.

In the interview, he spoke about the former prime minister's mindset: "He's been on a mission for several years now, I think he'll come back.".
Urich told about the morning when 12 consecutive years of rule ended: "We were in the Prime Minister's office, overlapping with Bennett, and then we left the office, and suddenly the convoy was only two vehicles. As prime minister, they would block the corridor when he arrived at the Knesset, the corridor was empty. When we got to the corridor, there were people there. A man came up to him and said, 'Bibi, can I shake your hand? To say thank you?', and no one pushed him.".
Urich, a partner in Srulik Einhorn's Perception consulting firm, believes that the dissolution of the previous government due to the failure to pass the budget was a mistake by his boss and the former alternate prime minister, Defense Minister Benny Gantz.
He estimates that Netanyahu himself regrets this mistake today. "I think that breaking up the unity was a mistake, and I think they see it as a mistake too. I feel that it is a mistake, I can also admit that it is a mistake, but it is a mistake that takes two to tango. I think we would all have felt better in the previous government we were in.".
Even with the latest polls indicating the strengthening of the Likud, Netanyahu's bloc still has no chance of forming a government. Urich himself also wonders how Netanyahu hasn't had enough yet, and why he's still in the political arena. "I can't understand, and I'm glad I can't understand. He's older, he can do more. He might think about the situation, but will he get tired of it? No.
""I think he's been on a mission like this for years. I think he'll come back, he's willing to invest in it. His family also supports him in doing it.".
