New Bill Would Allow Netanyahu To RunJERUSALEM (AP) -- Parliament gave preliminary approval today to a bill allowing former leader Benjamin Netanyahu to run again for Israel's prime minister in February. The bill passed 67-35 on first reading, but must go through several more votes before it could become law and allow Netanyahu to challenge Prime Minister Ehud Barak, who is seeking re-election. Netanyahu holds a double-digit lead in opinion polls over Barak, whose popularity has dwindled after months of Israeli-Palestinian violence.
