If Netanyahu ousted, what next for US-Israeli relations?

If longtime Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu gets ousted, what could it mean for US-Israeli relations?

For over a decade, the face of Israel on the world stage has been Benjamin Netanyahu. For American presidents Bill Clinton, Barack Obama and Donald Trump, Netanyahu was their partner as Israel's longest-serving prime minister. But for President Joe Biden, that likely won't be the case. After 12 consecutive years in power, and 15 years in total, Netanyahu is on the brink of being ousted by a governing coalition of right-wing, centrist and left-wing parties, including for the first time an Arab party. The diverse group of opponents was brought together primarily by a desire to replace Netanyahu, who is on trial for corruption, and to end a destabilizing cycle of repeat Israeli elections after four inconclusive ones in just two years. "Two thousand years ago, there was a Jewish state which fell here because of internal quarrels. This will not happen again -- not on my watch," said Naftali Bennett, the far-right ultranationalist who has the most to gain from the new government. At 49, he is set to become Israel's prime minister for the next two years, taking the job from his one-time mentor Netanyahu, whom he served under most recently as defense minister. Bennett will pass the baton of the premiership to centrist Yair Lapid for the last two years.
