The prime minister said he won’t allow the Palestinian Authority to take over Gaza, his sharpest comments yet against the White House plan for after the war.
He seems to support a two-state solution and a completely sovereign Palestinian state. He also seems serious enough about it that he’s trying to find language to thread the needle of domestic politics to make it more popular with Israelis (and not give Netanyahu any room to attack him). If the language of a two-state solution isn’t viable, the easiest thing for a politician to do would be to just steer clear of it. That he’s taken the time to recognize that the concept is viable with different language suggests that he’s pretty committed to it.
It’s almost certain he’ll win the next election. Latest polling puts trust in Netanyahu at 4%. If the election were held today, Gantz would win in a landslide. The worst attack in the history of the country happened on Netanyahu’s watch, there’s no way he’s not done when the conflict is over. Gantz is basically seen as the one who stepped in to save the country from Netanyahu’s failures.
