The Israeli people spoke and Netanyahu won, that's the way it works. No objection here.
What I hope is that Netanyahu heard the opposition voices and doesn't ignore them -- there were more of them and they spoke louder than I believe he imagined when he called the general election.
Personally, I do not believe he's listening to anyone but those who agree with him, domestically and internationally. But, there are more left wing and centralist party seats in the Knesset as a result of the election than there were before, I believe. So, he might at least give a little when it comes to domestic and social issues, even though fear will probably always be his predominate motivating factor and top priority.
