Israeli policymakers across the political spectrum share consensus on core national security priorities, Al-Monitor reported, with Iran set to remain the country's chief adversary regardless of which candidate wins next week's election. Military force will continue as the preferred policy instrument, while Palestinian statehood remains unlikely to advance significantly under any new government.
The broad agreement on these strategic questions suggests continuity in Israel's foreign policy despite potential leadership change. Domestic political shifts have not historically produced major shifts in approach to Iran or the Palestinian question.
