JERUSALEM, June 13 (Reuters) - Benjamin Netanyahu’s record 12-year run as Israel’s prime minister ended on Sunday with parliament approving a new “government of change” led by nationalist Naftali Bennett, an improbable scenario few Israelis once could have imagined.
But the razor-thin 60-59 vote of confidence in a coalition of left-wing, centrist, right-wing and Arab parties with little in common except a desire to unseat Netanyahu, only underscored its likely fragility. -snip
Israel followed in America's footsteps and booted out its Far-Right leader, so good on them for that. Now they need to work with the Palestinians and find a solution that works for both parties.
Your Lord knows very well what is in your heart. Your soul suffices this day as a reckoner against you. I need no witnesses. You do not listen to your soul, but listen instead to your anger and your rage.
He's not done. I'm sure he'll be back as the prime minister at some point.

One gets the boot and another, possibly worse one, gets in. Not sure that's a great development for the people suffering under Israel's authoritarianism.
Not really. I mean Israel is deeply dependent on the US, so the US has immense influence no matter the administration. It's not wrong when Netanyahu describes Israel as a giant US aircraft carrier.
Nah, he was a strong and sensible leader for his country; certainly better than the disappointment that Boris Johnson has turned out to be... and like I said before, he'll be back.... you can count on it.
