Hebrew · Sole source

The Israeli opposition has been presented with numerous opportunities to attack the ruling party following a series of government failures. These include issues of accountability, Haredi disturbances, and voting rights for Israelis abroad. The article suggests that the recent string of catastrophic events should have been enough to significantly damage the ruling party's electoral prospects.

The Israeli opposition is presented with a series of significant opportunities to challenge the ruling party, stemming from recent catastrophic events. These include accountability for a massacre and a "plane failure," disturbances involving Haredim (ultra-Orthodox Jews), and issues related to individuals like Shikli and Gal. Despite coalition attempts to obstruct, a plan to facilitate voting for Israelis abroad is moving forward. The article suggests that the ruling party's recent crises should have been enough to decisively end an election campaign and alienate its voters, given the string of disastrous events that have occurred in rapid succession.
