As Israel approaches its latest general election, Benjamin Netanyahu continues to exert a profound influence over the national political landscape. Despite his long tenure, which spans nearly two decades of the last thirty years, the veteran leader remains the primary focus for his political opponents. At a recent rally in Modi’in for opposition candidate Gadi Eisenkot, the former general’s campaign was overshadowed by the persistent presence of Netanyahu’s political legacy. While supporters of the opposition highlight the background and achievements of challengers like Eisenkot, the narrative of the current election cycle remains inextricably linked to the prime minister's enduring dominance. Netanyahu’s ability to dictate the terms of the political debate continues to put his rivals on the defensive as the country prepares for Tuesday's vote.
