Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu “warned supporters at a rally here Sunday that he and his Likud party may not win Tuesday’s election, a potentially dramatic fall for a consummate political survivor whose nine years in office transformed him into the public face of contemporary Israel,” the Washington Post reports.
“A loss by Netanyahu — or a razor-thin win and the prospect that he would be forced to enter into an unwieldy ‘government of national unity’ with his rivals — would mark a sobering reversal for Israel’s security hawks, in a country where the electorate has been moving steadily rightward for the past 15 years.”
