Desperate Netanyahu Goes Nuclear in Bid to Stay in Power. Next Step Could Be War with Iran

The post comes as polls show Netanyahu’s bloc near 50 seats, far short of the 61 needed to form a government, analysts said.

  • Benjamin Netanyahu posted an AI-generated image of a nuclear bomb dropped on Tel Aviv just before the October 27 Israeli elections, accompanied by a statement from conservative commentator Yuval Blumberg warning that 'The State of Israel is in real and tangible existential danger.'
  • Most final election polls show Netanyahu's bloc hovering around 50 seats, far short of the 61 required to form a government, while he faces a long-standing bribery trial with no resolution after over six years.
  • Gadi Eisenkot, Netanyahu's former military chief and top rival, responded by saying 'Like in every election campaign, the same old method of lies and scare tactics again.' Political commentator Tal Schneider called the campaign's fear tactics an 'intolerable extreme.'
  • Over 100 economists, including two Nobel laureates, expressed 'deep anxiety and concern' over Netanyahu's 'baffling' comments, while The Bank of Israel warned that cryptocurrency 'cannot be used as a route for bypassing sanctions.'
  • Trump told a campaign rally in Florida last week that the United States may launch another 'Epic Fury' against Iran. While military strikes will come too late to affect election results, early November operations could upend negotiations over forming a government.
