Netanyahu Might Step Down but Policies Persist
The article discusses the possibility that Benjamin Netanyahu and the current ruling coalition may be unable to form a government with a sufficient majority after the upcoming elections, and the potential implications this could have on Israeli policies towards Palestine and the region. It highlights that opinion polls indicate a lead for Gadi Eizenkot’s camp, but forming a coalition of 61 seats remains difficult unless an alliance is formed with Arab parties, which remains unlikely. The article also emphasizes that Israeli policies towards the Palestinians—particularly the refusal to establish a Palestinian state or to withdraw from Gaza—are rooted in the will of the Israeli people, who tend to elect far-right parties. It suggests that a change in government is unlikely to alter these core policies, which revolve around maintaining Israel’s strength in the region—either through direct military power or soft power approaches.
