Israeli polls are showing a groundswell of support for opposition parties, led by former Prime Minister Naftali Bennett and a popular centrist former military chief. <\/p>\n<p>Over the past week, the Knesset passed several controversial laws in marathon sessions as Netanyahu attempted to ram through several of his pet projects. <\/p>\n<p>Earlier this week, the Knesset passed two bills that effectively halt the enlistment of ultra-Orthodox men in the military in an attempt to ensure ultra-Orthodox parties join Netanyahu\u2019s coalition in the next government. <\/p>\n<p>The Knesset also recently passed several bills connected with Netanyahu\u2019s attempts to overhaul the judiciary, including increasing government control over broadcast media and weakening the role of the attorney general. Attorney General Gali Baharav-Miara has opposed the overhaul, and been a frequent target of Netanyahu and the Israeli right. <\/p>\n<p>Read more <a href=\"https:\/\/raleighmovingnews.com\/?p=6217\">US strikes bridges and collapses a tower at a key port as its Iran campaign expands<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe are completing a four-year term, we passed nine budgets and hundreds of bills, I thank you for the trust you placed in me, through which together we succeeded in maintaining a four-year term,\u201d Knesset Speaker Amir Ohana said as he announced the dissolution.<\/p>\n<p>Completing a full, four-year term is a rare occurrence throughout Israeli history.<\/p>\n<p>The last time Israel\u2019s government fulfilled a full term without breaking for early elections was in 1988. Israel has no term limits, and Netanyahu has served more terms than any other prime minister in Israel\u2019s history, but it is rare even for him to finish a full, four-year term.<\/p>\n<p>Between 2019 and 2022, Israelis went to the polls five times. Israel holds elections on average every 2.4 years, making it second-lowest ranked country in the OECD for periods between elections, a marker of political instability, according to the Israel Democracy Institute.<\/p>\n<p>Read more <a href=\"https:\/\/raleighmovingnews.com\/?p=6215\">Mensah\u2019s departure from Duke leaves Devils with hole at quarterback<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>TEL AVIV, Israel (AP) \u2014 Israel\u2019s parliament dissolved early Friday after passing a marathon of&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":6220,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-6221","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-news"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.6 -
