Under law the Knesset will sit for four years unless it is dissolved on a vote of no confidence.  This is often the case as the coalitions ultimately fall apart due to differences between the parties.  In those cases an attempt may be made to create a new coalition; if not successful the Knesset dissolves and early elections are called.
