Internally it's the same right vs left conflict that you see in many other westernized countries, only magnified by the conflict. But in a very strange and un-hawkish move, after 500 rockets have been fired on Israel in 24 hours, Bibi didn't order any serious retaliation and deescalated instead. Coalition broke down, so now we're up for election on our hands, and Liberman, who resigned in protest against this decision, have seemingly got a lot of points. However, I'm very curious about Bibi, because his main focus for the last few years have been international relations. His frequent visits, and building a lot of ties with muslim and muslim-friendly countries didn't win him a lot support domestically, but it may just be the key to solving the conflict. Especially in this recent situation, there are strong rumours that the main reason he decided not to allow escalation was his desire to demonstrate his reliableness to other middle eastern powers that got tired of Hamas and Muslim Brotherhood in general. There's a lot of talk about how corrupt Bibi and his family is; but you have to take it in context, compared to western countries. All Israeli PMs (except for Gold Meir) have always been highly decorated combat military veterans, who have gone into harm's way again and again to serve their country and protect their countrymen. So while it's conceivable that they would give favourable government contracts to their friends and get a couple of millions reached from shady dealings, I don't think that a person with such history wouldn't care for his people.
