In this episode, Middle East expert Peter Lintl (German Institute for International and Security Affairs - SWP) analyzes the upcoming high-stakes elections in Israel. Between Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and his primary challenger Gadi Eisenkot, the political contest is driven less by policy differences and more by a deep ideological divide.
The episode examines the complex coalition arithmetic in the Knesset, post-October 7 political polarization, the role of Arab Israeli parties, and Israel's growing diplomatic isolation in the West. The analysis also explores regional dynamics—from economic ties with Arab nations to strategic balances with Turkey and Iran—closing with post-election scenarios of West Bank violence and political deadlock.
