One must admit that even the most talented script writer couldn't have come up with the script for the Israeli circus.

These big government machines made up for political systems that fall into a routine end up giving undue influence to a few crazies, it’s happening in America nowadays too.

Would either party make it to the knesset with independent runs? They are polling around 6-7 together. You need 4 seats minimum to get in, which means they would somehow get to 8 separately. Would they join a coalition together? I feel like this is handing Liberman and the left wing a huge win.

i wouldnt worry about some of them. as soon as the polls go to print giving them around 1/2 a seat, most of them will back out.

It's only because he is a capable leader and the only alternative against those that want to turn the country into even more Bolshevik and devoid of Yiddishkeit than it is now.

He is a fake, he's a narcissist, he'll throw everyone and anyone under the bus when it serves his purpose, and most people tend to hate such a person. He did that to the charedim too but as soon as he needed them he smiled to them again and got them all running to lick his boots again. It could be that the rest have their own and even worse problems but that would make him the בוחר הרע במיעוטו candidate. Saying that the only reason for the hate he gets is because he's literally a כליל המעלות is the epitome of idolism.

That is true about all politicians. It is part of the job description.

How does this have anything to do with "Charedim"? (FTR, this is the person who wrote it: https://www.srugim.co.il/721131-%D7%94%D7%A8%D7%91-%D7%97%D7%99%D7%99%D7%9D-%D7%A0%D7%91%D7%95%D7%9F-%D7%96%D7%95-%D7%94%D7%A1%D7%99%D7%91%D7%94-%D7%A9%D7%A0%D7%AA%D7%A0%D7%99%D7%94%D7%95-%D7%9B%D7%9C-%D7%9B%D7%9A-%D7%A9%D7%A0)

He is definitely not כליל המעלות, however, he is highly intelligent and extremely capable (and has very thick skin). I am not aware of anyone in the Israeli political scene that comes close to his abilities. On many economic and national security questions, there is little ideological or practical divide in Israel. Despite all the talk, there's a reality to deal with (which has been imposed by past moves and decisions, and by political balancing needs), and that reality forces certain decisions.

FWIW the defining characteristic of the "left" is hubris and arrogance. They would have loved to have someone like him as a leader. Instead, they are stuck with Lapid, who seems to have thick skin, managed to get himself to his position despite lack of credentials, but at the bottom line is a real embarrassment. (think about it, one of the things that gets a person most angry about others, is when they realize that it is themselves that are essentially at fault).
