Israeli elections: Netanyahu set to win. Will he now bomb Iran? | David Hearst | UNAPOLOGETIC

On this episode of UNAPOLOGETIC, we sat down with Middle East Eye editor-in-chief David Hearst the day after Israel’s elections, with Netanyahu’s bloc on course to be the largest and no side close to a majority. David explains why a strike on Iran is now more likely than before the vote, how Ben-Gvir’s armed settler base shapes Netanyahu’s options, what a record Palestinian turnout means for citizens of Israel, and why so many observers got this election wrong. UNAPOLOGETIC is hosted by Ashfaaq Carim.
