If the Knesset had been presenting a Christian morality play, we would revel in divine justice. Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu wanted a Likud purified of "social" sentiments? He got it, distilled in the form of Yesh Atid’s Yair Lapid and friends. He wanted Likud as a party of settlers? He has it, in the purified form of Naftali Bennett of Habayit Hayehudi.
