Overview

Israel's longest-serving prime minister, Benjamin Netanyahu, is back in office - but at what cost to himself and the country that he helped to create? This issue of The Jewish Quarterly explores the spectacular political comeback of Israel's Benjamin Netanyahu, who clawed his way back to the leadership but risks destroying the legacy that he spent a lifetime building. In this captivating essay, Israeli journalist Anshel Pfeffer, author of the definitive biography of Netanyahu, explores the personal, psychological and political motivations that led Israel's longest-serving and scandal-prone prime minister to steer a new, dangerous course after returning to office on 29 December 2022. His essay looks at whether this latest incarnation of Netanyahu is the 'real Bibi', and at whether Netanyahu has changed the country - or used the country's changes to his political advantage.
