TL;DR Summary

Former Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Olmert has called on current Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to either reform his coalition or resign. Olmert, who is an outspoken opponent of Netanyahu, believes that the current government is "doomed to fall" due to its makeup and controversial policies.
