NETANYAHU’S OPPONENTS MOVE TO REVERSE HIS KEY POLICIES IN ISRAEL’S PARLIAMENT Newly elected opposition lawmakers in Israel, led by Gadi Eisenkot, have introduced a series of legislative proposals aimed at reversing Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s key policies. Their agenda includes establishing a state commission of inquiry into the political and security failures surrounding the October 7 Hamas attacks, imposing term limits on prime ministers, and reversing the government’s judicial overhaul. The opposition also plans to repeal laws that would weaken the attorney general’s authority and increase political influence over police oversight. However, Eisenkot faces challenges in forming a governing coalition despite securing the support of 67 members of the 120-seat Knesset. The proposed bills will require parliamentary approval, while Netanyahu has criticized the opposition’s reliance on Israeli Arab parties to form a new government.

Netanyahu reportedly calls Trump every day, pushing him to restart the war on Iran. Leaders across the region, from Qatar, Saudi Arabia and the UAE to Turkey, are urging Trump to give diplomacy more time, and Netanyahu stands alone in demanding more war.
