Title Binyamin 'Bibi' Netanyahu swept the Likud leadership election.
Scope and content He received 52% of the vote with His arch rival David Levy only managing 26%, Benny Begin received 15% and Moshe Katsav 6%. Such was Netanyahu victory that there will be no need for a run off election next week as he received far more than the 40% minimum vote required to win. Netanyahu is, at 46 the youngest leader ever of a major Israeli political party. Almost 70% of the 214,000 eligible voters turned out to vote. Even the last minute accusations that Netanyahu had an extra-marital affair together with a blackmail threat had no effect on the voters who have given him a strong mandate to led the opposition to what will be, they hope, victory in the next election. Netanyahu's supporters look to him to gain support from uncommitted voters and disenchanted members of the present coalition. There is much concern over Yitzhak Rabin's handling of the rapid increase in Arab violence as well as his apparant acceptance of giving back such areas such as the Golan, which many experts feel would be national suicide. Photo shows: Benjamin Nethanyahu with wife after his victory.
