The fall of the coalition led by Benjamin Netanyahu forces the country to return to the polls for the fourth time in two years.

Israel is experiencing a new episode of a repeated political crisis.

For the fourth time in two years, legislative elections will take place next March.

The coalition government led by Benyamin Netanyahu, allied with centrist Benny Gantz, imploded in flight.

As one commentator points out, Israel is the only country, whose Parliament has been unable to adopt the 2020 budget despite the emergency caused by the Covid-19 epidemic.

The deadline for the adoption of the finance law was set at midnight Tuesday.

The defection of members of the majority screwed up everything.

Benyamin Netanyahu, at the helm without interruption for eleven years, intends to succeed himself.

But this time the challenge may be more difficult to meet.

The danger will not come from the left, because the Labor Party of Yitzhak Rabin and Shimon Peres is threatened with disappearing body and soul.

On the other hand, the overflow threatens the nationalist right.
