The data indicate that Israel is moving further to the right, but not through a direct or inevitable electoral shift: the right won 64 seats in 1996 and 60 in 2026, after peaking at 70 in 2022, while the left fell from 43 seats in 1996 to 8 in 2026, and the center rose from 4 to 33. The article attributes the entrenchment of this shift to the impact of security shocks, rising religiosity, military socialization, and the left’s inability to offer a security alternative. Among young people aged 18 to 22, 56% identify as right-wing, and 57% said their religious faith had grown stronger since October 7. Even so, the figures do not establish that the shift is irreversible: the right is made up of diverse currents, and the next elections may redraw the balance of power.
