Amit Segal: At 77, Netanyahu Is in a Difficult Position

In depth

Amit Segal and Dan Senor spoke at the Israel Hayom conference in New York about the political tangle in Israel and the challenges beyond the sea. At the event, Segal addressed the political situation and presented the options for forming a government.

Segal explained why Netanyahu erred in his speech in the Knesset, and estimated that the decision on an attack on Iran will be made between Netanyahu and Trump. According to him, Netanyahu's only hope is to wait or to act so that his rivals collapse.

Segal estimated that Netanyahu will be forced to wait, and explained why Bennett is silent on one of his important promises, not to pass an exemption law from conscription. Senor warned against an anti-Israel politician who may run for the U.S. presidency in 2028, and explained that Israelis attribute excessive weight to anti-Israel podcasters on the American right, who do not represent most Republican voters.
