Netanyahu has been a good leader for Israel and a great friend and ally to the U.S.
I pray the new leadership stays true to the path he set, and that Israel's enemies don't try to take advantage of the transition of power.
Bennett will immediately be the most right-wing leader of any major economic/technological power in the world. He's an ardent nationalist, a practicing Jew (as opposed to Netanyahu) and ha supported policies towards the Palestinians that Netanyahu thought were too extreme.
I'm terms of standing up to the regional Islamic powers I don't think you have anything to worry about. If anything he's more likely to ignite a major conflict than his predecessor was.
After so many decades, it would be nice to see something like that happen, if for nothing more than for there to be some kind of end to the back and forth that for years now has seemed more for political theater than to actually going all the way.
I say that with the caveat that the U.S. is not involved in any way, shape, or form. We've got better things to do with our resources.
