Suspicions of foreign funding do not undermine Israel's election results as a whole, Justice Noam Sohlberg says in footage opening a morning television interview. Tally Gotliv challenges how he can reach that conclusion before the extent of the suspected activity is known.

The exchange leads an interview with Dana Varon on Israel's Channel 14 (C14). Sohlberg, a Supreme Court justice who chairs the Central Elections Committee, says the suspicions are being examined. Gotliv argues that his reassurance goes beyond what can yet be established.

She calls his statement empty formal language and says the matter should have gone before a district court, with evidence presented and the possible disqualification of polling stations examined. The broadcaster's description places the dispute around suspected election bribery in Arab communities. Those suspicions, and Gotliv's argument about their possible consequences, are not findings that the overall result was affected.

Gotliv then turns to David Zini, head of the Shin Bet, Israel's domestic security service. She calls on him to resign if he cannot carry out his duties or remove officials whom she says obstruct his work. Her demand is conditional, not a report that Zini has decided to leave.

Later, the interview shifts from investigating the election to forming a government. An on-screen statement quotes Benjamin Netanyahu expressing a desire for a broad coalition and openness to talks with other parties. Gotliv argues instead for an explicitly right-wing government, attributing Likud's loss of seats to an insufficient emphasis on right-wing positions.

She appeals to Gadi Eisenkot and Avigdor Lieberman to join such a coalition. Addressing Lieberman, she proposes that he take the defense portfolio rather than remain outside the government.
