PoliticsOct 24Israel's elections and not so great expectations for peaceIsraelis head to the polls on October 27 in a vote that will cast Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and his right-wing and religious allies against a motley crew of opposition parties.

Netanyahu and his leading opponent are only projected to win some 20 seats each, but the biggest party doesn’t necessarily get the right to form the government. Instead, the Israeli president hands that job to whichever Knesset member has the best shot at winning the Knesset’sResponsible Statecraft
