Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is expected to call for an election after the conclusion of Operation Swords of Iron in Gaza, according to Netanyahu confidant Yaakov Amidror. Labor Minister Yoav Ben Tzur also stated that Netanyahu will be forced to go to elections within 90 days after the war. The leader of Israel's Labor Party called for the dismissal of an army rabbi who made controversial remarks about the country's territory. Likud MK Tally Gotliv criticized Ben Tzur's statement, accusing him of having no loyalty to the government. However, an Israeli minister later retracted the statement that Netanyahu would have to call for an election after the war. The public is expected to have a say in the election after such a terrible event.
