In only a matter of days it has become clear that Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s far-right government is the closest it has come to collapse.It is not because of the catastrophic security failure of the October 7 attacks;

Netanyahu’s current coalition, despite the colossal failure of October 7, has already outlasted about 75% of its predecessors.

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s government survived an attempt to dissolve Israel's parliament early Thursday morning, with most of his ultra-Orthodox coalition partners joining him in voting against a bill that would have forced them to register for military service while the country is at war.
