In Israel’s Election, It’s Nationalism vs. Founding Ideals

This story is from the archive. It was covered between 27 October 2026 and 27 October 2026, and nothing below has been updated since. See what is happening now.

As Israel votes, ever more strident hard-right views compete with hopes for a diverse land. The outcome could shape the country’s identity for years.

What the coverage shows

The two outlets diverge sharply in framing: the New York Times uses the election headline “Two Candidates, Two Israels, One Nation in the Balance” and foregrounds a contest between hard-right nationalism and founding ideals, while The Guardian US does not cover that topic in its headline or extract at all. The Guardian US instead leads on a Queensland floods death, identifying James Hansen as a former councillor and One Nation candidate, so the only overlap is the One Nation name in a completely different context.
