Hey @bachophile, how do you see his odds of getting reelected?
@jon-nyc was away out of town for a bit so i havent been caught up
as to your question,
there is no question that the current coalition will not have a majority to form a new government and there is speculation that if bibi realizes he has no chance for reelection, he may resign after cutting a deal in his ongoing corruption trial. because if he does lose, he will have no bargaining power in making a plea deal.
on the other hand, a bad possible scenario is the current opposition also not getting the needed 61 seat majority (of 120) and it that case, bibi stays on in a cartaker governement for another 6 months.
many people think we are due for what Hungary just had, a de-Orabanization, and return to liberal democracy, but its still in the air.
polls are shaky, opposition getting between 59-61 seats. and it needs 61 or more.
elections are in october. -

It's time that Israel gets a new government--even if the new government has the same policies as the old one, just time for a change.

A Hebrew University survey (published around June 21, 2026, via Times of Israel reporting) of thousands of Israelis found: 
• 92.1% believe Iran emerged as the winner (or gained more) from the war and subsequent U.S. deal.
• This view held strongly even among right-wing/Netanyahu supporters (~93%).
• 82.9% say it weakened Israel’s long-term security.
• 86% have a negative view of the outcome.
• Many don’t buy claims of major achievements in removing existential threats.
