    A consistent majority of Israeli polls show prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s current coalition bloc with the ultra-Orthodox and the far right will fall well below the threshold of 61 seats needed to form a government.

    The opposition has a clear path to power through an alliance with parties representing Palestinian citizens of Israel, known as Arab parties inside the country.

    Hopefully Netanyahu loses. I wonder how the hatemongers will react to a coalition that includes Arab parties governing Israel? Likely y’all will just start hating Arab Israelis too, hatred is just too addicting for anyone to kick the habit.

      Why do Democrats like Pete Buttigieg keep calling Israel our ally? Do mainstream Democrats really want to be associated with segregation, racism, apartheid and genocide? Why do they continue to defend Nazi Israel’s actions?

      Liberal just means “it’s okay to be gay, atheist and smoke weed”, it’s never meant “righteous”, “humane” or “anti-imperialist”.
