Israel is getting a new government led by an old friend. A year and a half after losing power, Benjamin Netanyahu has completed his comeback by forming a coalition. He is 73 years old and has ruled the country for 15 years, longer than any other Israeli prime minister. But nobody should interpret this return as the continuation or even the completion of an era. Something completely new is beginning in Israel – and that harbors plenty of dangers.
