Israel's vote tally is now complete, and both Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and the opposition, led by Gadi Eisenkot are short of a parliamentary majority. The record 19 seats won by Arab parties prevent either side from forming a Zionist government, but anti-Netanyahu protesters are calling for Eisenkot to join with the Arabs to oust the prime minister. Meanwhile, President Trump received a rare in-person briefing from top military leaders, suggesting that an action against Iran is possible after the U.S. midterm elections on Tuesday.

🇮🇱 #ShabbatShalom from #Haifa overlooking Israel's beautiful northern coastline. As Israel enters Shabbat, uncertainty remains over the nation's political future while growing concerns surround Iran and the possibility of renewed regional conflict. Please continue to pray for the peace, wisdom, and protection of Israel and all those serving to defend the nation. "He who watches over Israel will neither slumber nor sleep." — Psalm 121:4

Israel's Next Government: The Waiting Game Begins With nearly 85 percent of the votes counted on Wednesday morning from Israel's election, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and his Likud Party again confounded the pollsters and gained more votes than any other party, making him the leading candidate to form the next government. Addressing his supporters early on Wednesday, Netanyahu declared, "The right-wing bloc has a clear, decisive majority among the Zionist public. And among the Jewish public and all those who support the Jewish state, this is what has become clear – a decisive majority."

With more than 70 percent of the vote counted in Israel, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's coalition bloc leads the opposition with 54 seats projected in the new Knesset. That leaves the prime minister seven seats short of a majority needed to head the next government. It increases the chances of a national unity government with the Eisenkot opposition bloc as the U.S. and Israel consider a possible upcoming strike against Iran.
