Israeli Opposition Leaders Push Term Limits for Prime Minister to Challenge Netanyahu

Two former Israeli prime ministers are working to unite opposition forces against Benjamin Netanyahu by proposing constitutional changes that would limit the prime minister's role to two terms. Naftali Bennett and Yair Lapid are attempting to attract additional opposition politicians to their campaign, which appears designed to prevent Netanyahu from continuing his long tenure in office. Netanyahu has served as Israel's prime minister for over 15 years across multiple terms, making him the country's longest-serving leader. The proposed term limits would represent a significant constitutional reform in Israel's parliamentary system, where the prime minister traditionally serves as long as they can maintain a governing coalition in the Knesset.
