Why is Benjamin Netanyahu back in power?

New Delhi: Benjamin Netanyahu announced that he had formed a new Israeli government on Tuesday, returning to power as the head of the most right-wing coalition in Israel's history.Netanyahu, who is fighting corruption allegations in court, has already served as premier longer than anyone in Israeli history, including a 1996 to 1999 stint a record 12-year tenure from 2009 to 2021.'They are joining me. I'm not joining them,': NetanyahuNetanyahu is defending his effort to assemble a government with far-right ultranationalists.Facing criticism in Israel and abroad, Netanyahu previously had not spoken in detail about Itamar Ben-Gvir, Israel's most polarizing far-right politician, now in line to be Netanyahu's minister of national security overseeing the police. Ben-Gvir was convicted in 2007 of supporting an anti-Arab group that Israel and the U.S. classify as a terrorist organization.Defending Ben-Gvir, Netanyahu said, "He has modified a lot of his views since then.

I'm not joining them," said Netanyahu.Netanyahu faces corruption chargesLast year a broad Israeli coalition ousted him from power.
