Candidates from 34 secular and religious parties will contest. Polls suggest Netanyahu/Lieberman's Likud/Yisrael Beiteinu (Israel Our Home) looks likely to win. 

Once dominant Kadima is a spent force. Polls suggest it'll gain two of 120 Knesset seats. 

They predict Labor to get 16, Habayit Hayehud/National Union 14, Shas 11, former Kadima leader Tzipi Livni's Hatnuah 10, Yesh Atid 9, and Meretz 4. 

Candidates from four Arab parties are contesting. They include United Arab List, Ta'al, Balad, and Hadash. They're each predicted to win four seats. Effectively they're powerless.

Hardline Jews run Israel. Arabs have no say whatever.

Yair Lapid heads Yesh Atid. Haaretz calls him an Israeli Chuck Norris. He'll join Netanyahu's right-wing government if elected. Doing so will violate campaign pledges.

All Israeli politicians do it. Their promises belie their agenda. They say one thing and do another. They support the worst of hardline policies. 

They turned Israel into a rogue state. They prioritize regional dominance. They want Israel running a "New Middle East." They want non-Jews deprived of all rights. They support policies no one should accept.
