Eisenkot faces a test of whether elections can be decoupled from final status politics. Backing Palestinian voting without endorsing statehood could reset the diplomatic conversation while avoiding commitments Israel rejects. The real question is whether Palestinian leadership accepts such a distinction, or treats it as a nonstarter. Watch for reactions from both sides.
