Israel's longest-serving PM Benjamin Netanyahu has won only because he hasn’t been defeated. He’s also changed Israel fundamentally. Any ruling alliance now will have to be a coalition to the exclusion of Israel’s Arab citizens. Two points need exploration. One, when and why did the power of the once-formidable Left vapourise in Israel? And second, how come the formidable vote of its Arabs doesn’t matter? Watch this week's #NationalInterest

#NationalInterest Indira Gandhi had two spells in power, yet she was not one prime minister, but three. Each tenure, it was the same personality in office but a different Prime Minister. She changed and evolved, sometimes for the better, sometimes not quite so. Her first tenure reflected some under-preparedness and diffidence. Her second tenure was so forgettable, yet she redeemed herself to some extent towards the end. History will take an unkind view of the third, but it marked the return of the Iron Lady. Watch ThePrint Editor-In-Chief Shekhar Gupta decode Indira Gandhi in this #NationalInterest, originally published in November 2017, ahead of her 42nd death anniversary.

In episode 1927 of #CutTheClutter, ThePrint Editor-in-Chief Shekhar Gupta examines the results, the coalition arithmetic and what the outcome could mean for Israel’s wars and future.
