Will the people vote differently? I bet not.

Coalition governments are totally different than a two party system in the USA. There are over a dozen parties with in Israel, Netenyahu needed to form a coalition with ultra-nationalist to win. Each of these parties have to be kept happy else the coalition falls apart.

The Knesset has 120 seats. Likud has 32. Most Israelis did not vote for Netanyahu.
