If we know how to change direction, the Democrats' victory may be a positive opportunity for Israel's future | Nadav Tamari

Nadav Tamari argues that the Democratic victory in Congress is an opportunity for Israel to change direction. According to him, Congress will be pro-Israel but not pro-Netanyahu, and a government led by Eisenkot could advance political arrangements, while Netanyahu will face opposition.

Nadav Tamari writes in Ma'ariv that the Democratic victory in both houses of Congress in the US midterm elections is a positive opportunity for Israel's future, if it knows how to change direction. According to him, the new Congress will be pro-Israel but not pro-Netanyahu, and will limit Trump. Tamari argues that the mainstream of the Democratic Party supports Israel's security but believes that continued occupation endangers its future. He notes that a government led by Gadi Eisenkot could find partners in Congress to advance political arrangements, including the 20-point plan for Gaza, while Netanyahu will not receive unconditional support. The article emphasizes the need for a policy shift toward regional partnership and exiting the cycle of wars.
