Even before a new government is formed, the majority expected in the upcoming Knesset, with the support of Arab parties, can begin to dismantle the current one. This bloc can replace the Knesset speaker, repeal "coup laws," and initiate the establishment of a state commission of inquiry into the "massacre," according to an analysis. While speculation about the next government's composition dominates pre-election discourse, less attention is given to the next Knesset, whose first session is scheduled for November 10, two weeks after the elections. This opening ceremony, featuring the expected unity speech by the president and "I pledge" declarations from lawmakers, will be brief. The following day, parliament is predicted to become a tumultuous arena of bitter struggles between the executive and legislative branches, as the parliamentary majority is expected to shift sides according to all polls.
