Former Prime Minister Naftali Bennett is considered a likely successor to Israel's longest-serving prime minister, according to polls. Bennett has a successful record in politics and hi-tech, and unlike his predecessor, he is not facing corruption charges. However, there are concerns about his judgment in choosing political partners. The major question for Bennett is whether he has a realistic solution to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict and a viable plan for the territories Israel has controlled since the Six Day War. Bennett's proposal includes annexing Area C and offering Israeli citizenship to Palestinians living there, while proposing autonomy for Areas A and B. The writer questions whether Bennett's plan would be acceptable to anyone outside of Israel's right-wing and how he plans to handle potential boycotts and isolation.
