As we’ve seen in Israel, Japan’s future may be shaped by unstable coalition politics dominated by multiple small parties. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/commentary/2025/10/17/japan/japan-parliament-begins-its-knessetization/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=mastodon #commentary #japan #sanaetakaichi #liberaldemocraticparty #ldp #komeito #israel #benjaminnetanyahu #knesset #likud

Has Japan’s Diet finally begun its ‘Knessetization’?

My focus is entirely on whether Japan's parliament will finally begin to “Knessetize” (referring to Israel's parliament, and by extension, unstable coalition politics.)
