'King Bibi': perennial survivor Netanyahu comes out ahead
Despite corruption allegations and stiff opposition from a new centre party, Israeli premier Benjamin Netanyahu has managed to boost his party's share of the vote and looks set to keep power.
While his right-wing Likud party and a centrist coalition appear set to have around the same number of parliamentary seats after Tuesday's general elections, the man called 'King Bibi' by admirers has a clear path to forming a coalition.
The 69-year-old is now likely to form another right-wing government and become the longest-serving Israeli prime minister later this year.
Good news - Israel is our strongest ally in that part of the world. She needs to stay strong.
