Really odd, especially considering his grandfather despised Christian values, Joffrey here is essentially a far-right catholic

It's classic neo nazi rhetoric. He's no different than these people at this point, his grandfather would probably be ashamed (the probably is "if he wasn't as morally bankrupt as his son")

To a degree Yair is the fault of the American Right. The last 15 years so massive numbers of the Jewish far right in America immigrate to Israel and especially Jerusalem. Yair interacted with them at the university while participating in all the programmes financed by the "hope foundation" a right wing paleo-conservative Jewish NGO.

Like his father in the 80's importing the foolish antics of the shallow American republican politics, his son is importing the new bad trends of the alt-right.

Our relationship with America is toxic politically, and adverse strategically.

I have similar objections to the trends in the left importing the safe space identity politics shenanigans.

So he'd be willing to help out Netanyahu for the sake of f**king Gantz over?? Don't get me wrong, Gantz is a piece of sh*t and seeing him humiliated like that would be fun, but if the end result is Netanyahu getting what he wants, that's far far worse.
If I’m understanding this correctly, Gantz going into the election as Prime Minister could seriously damage Lapid. He can’t afford that, and it’s not like he has any desire to see Gantz pretend to not be a Likud PM for two years.

Well, if the end result is allowing Bibi to return with a mandate, I really don't see how that serves Lapid's interests either.

It's ironic given history. But in a modern context a Christian Europe would be more pro-Israeli and anti-Arabic/anti-Islamic, secularism makes Europeans (and Americans) less likely to support Israel. So it makes sense.

I'm sure his Polish and Hungarians best buds would be thrilled to have junior the notorious closet gay (the worst kept secret in Israeli politics) preaching them on Christian values.

As Lenin might have said, your typical far-right Christian nationalist supports Israel and Jewish interests as the rope supports a hanged man. I would know; I am a professor Catholic of patrilineal Jewish descent who likes Ecclesiastical Latin.

I mean, even many Likudists must be aware that some of the US Christian Right only "support" Israel because they actually believe in the Rapture? Doesn't it bother them just a weeny bit??

Why would it? Both sides get what they want from this arrangement after all.

Would it bother you if it meant you had an army of useful idiots to block vote for a useful idiot every 4 years?

So after day 1 of the SC hearings on the new government it seems quite clear the majority of justices will allow Bibi to be PM. tomorrow will be more interesting and we'll see whether the coalition agreement of parts of will be struck down

Haha, I love it. I’m between the Zehutnik and the Arab Worker.

There were definitely a few missed opportunities though (Ale Yarok supporters, Ayelet Shaked fanboys, old Russians, Haneen Zoabi etc.)

I'm probably the Mapai nostalgist or the Rabin nostalgist, but the Arab worker is obviously the most valid.

These internal political squabbles that look like a third world country right now are not indicative at all of the broader reality. Israel is not even 1% weaker or less united than it was before this mess, not to be underestimated, they are the same if fit were to hit the shan right now, the IDF continues to stand more formidable than their foes regardless.

https://www.ynetnews.com/article/HyV1LHeqI

According to the poll, only a quarter of the respondents (26%) said they support the potential annexation, while 40% prefer a permanent two-state solution, 22% favor unilateral disengagement from the Palestinians, while only 13% are content with the current situation.

Although the pledge to annex the strategic parts of the West Bank was one of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's major election campaign points, only a third (36%) of his Likud party's supporters said they back the initiative.

The survey also shows that most Jewish citizens, including most Likud voters, do not support the annexation of the Jordan Valley if the move would put a strain on relations with Jordan.

Amazing. I'm definitely the Yarok, it's literally me. Also anti-Bibist.

In other interesting news, MK Gadeer Mreeh gave a wonderful, wonderful speech in the Knesset. She was articulate, funny, made the point effectively and without inciting hostility. A rising star. She tore the hypocritical treatment of the Druze as a nice and docile population while they're not given the funds they're promised. And she said this sentence that I found really powerful: "I resent the militaristic discourse, what's that phrase 'blood alliance'? I come to live with you, not to die with you."

SC rejected all appeals against the formation of the government by Bibi and the coalition agreements by a unanimous verdict of 11 justices (unheard of). I could have made nice chunks of money if I placed bets on it...

They did warn though they would probably not accept pushing the opposition representative from the judicial appointment committee. But this actually is quite on shaky ground in law compared to other items. Strange.

Bibi now has 14 days to present the government for a confidence vote

Just out of curiosity, on a scale of 1 to 10, how close is Avigdor Lieberman to the old Russian organised crime networks? Is there any political backlash/ethnic stereotyping the other way from religious types who view him and his community as ''not real Jews''?
