REPORT: Obama's criticism of Netanyahu affects election polls

Following the Speech of US President Barack Obama in which he described Israel’s PM Benjamin Netanyahu as “a threat to the Israeli state more dangerous than Iran”, the polls ahead of Israel's parliamentary elections next week showed that Netanyahu's bloc’s victory won’t be as easy as it seemed.

Meanwhile, the Israeli opposition is working on gaining ground in the parliament to replace Netanyahu.

The opposition is urging the Israeli Arabs to vote by promoting that "boycotting the elections serves Netanyahu and its bloc."
