Summary

Many Palestinians in Gaza and the West Bank are desperate to avoid more years of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's right-wing government, which they say has made life close to unbearable, and their hopes are tied to the Israeli election. A Straits Times analysis asks how a Netanyahu election loss would change Israel's policies toward the Palestinians, noting that Netanyahu and his main opponent, Gadi Eisenkot, both oppose an independent Palestinian state.
