The Israeli government has been in office for ten months and the next election is scheduled three and a half years from now, but it is teetering on the brink of political abyss with the defection of its own majority whip, a member of Prime Minister Naftali Bennett’s Knesset faction. Because Israel’s legislators are on recess for the next several weeks, moves to unseat Bennett are in suspended animation, but his future seems bleak, though not downright doomed. So how will the political drama unfold when the Knesset is back in session after its holiday break?
Joining us from central Israel is Former Knesset member Dov Lipman, Secretary General of the Confederation of United Zionists, Yoni Ben Menachem, Middle East Expert and Political Analyst, and Col. (Res.) Reuven Ben-Shalom, TV7 Powers-in-Play Panelist, Cross-Cultural Strategist and Associate at ICT, Reichman University.
