Israel has voted, but the coalition deadlock is just beginning - analysis

Assessment
The election delivered no clear winner, and the real work starts now. Every party leader faces the same uncomfortable choice: soften their red lines, accept an unlikely ally, or break a public commitment. Coalition talks will expose which promises were genuine and which were bargaining chips. Watch which politicians move first, because the one who blinks sets the tone for the entire government.
