Let me guess what's next: it's a Deep State plot to make him lose the election.

During the last election Bibi said he was against a Palestinian state, and then said after the election that he was for it. It's hard to know when he is sincere, but even in his best moments his idea of a Palestinian state is kind of a bantustan.

He's never sincere. Hope that clarifies.

He will sincerely say or do anything to stay in power, and out of jail.
Like organized crime syndicate bigshots, and Republicans.

He sincerely wants power and to stay out of jail. Any actions or words are likely insincere.

In Israel Election, the Future of the West Bank Is Now on the Ballot
Ahead of Tuesday’s vote, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu backed extending sovereignty over the West Bank, putting a contentious issue front and center.
Mr. Netanyahu’s surprise promise appeared to be a last-ditch effort to rally his right-wing base as he faced a career-threatening challenge.
Also they have this op-ed by Roger Cohen:
Will the Israeli ‘King’ Be Recrowned? April 7
Prolonging the Netanyahu era would undermine Israeli democracy and bury any last hope of a two-state peace. It's time for Benny Gantz.
