As you mentioned, like the country is lurched to the right.
You've got like violent extremists, like literal terrorist sympathizers like this guy, Itamar Ben-Gavir, who are now in government.
And by the way, his support for his party in polls is going up and up and up.
Even the moderate candidates though, they're not that liberal on the Palestinian issue.
