Netanyahu Announces Being Forced into Elections

Lesson Brief NRG
On December 1, NRG reported on the rising tensions between the two leading political parties in Israel. Headed by Prime Minister Netanyahu (Likud) and the Treasury Minister Lapid (Yesh Atid), both parties have not been able to agree regarding issues such as the budget, and the "Jewish-state bill". Recently, Netanyahu has called for certain conditions to be met by Yesh Atid that he knows will not be accepted, and therefore has called for elections in the second half of March 2015.
