A mixed reaction in the polls, and possibly heading for another election for Knesset.
Key party results (approximate, based on ~85.6% counted) as of now:
• Likud (Netanyahu): 26
• Yashar! (Eisenkot): 21
• Beyachad (Bennett/Lapid): 12
• Joint List: 12
• Democrats (Golan): 8
• Yisrael Beytenu, Otzma Yehudit, Ra’am, Shas, United Torah Judaism: ~7 each
• Religious Zionism–Zehut: 6
It’s going to another hung parliament.
When it comes to coalition, Israeli parties are not willing to hold hands with Arab Parties to form the Government.
This is against David Ben Gurion’s dream about Israel. He has issued the Declaration of Independence.
Ben Kurien will be rolling on his grave. He specifically included the statement in “The Declaration of Independence”:
The Declaration (proclaimed by David Ben-Gurion) contains the closest statements to secular or liberal principles on religion:
- It guarantees complete equality of social and political rights to all inhabitants irrespective of religion, race or sex.
- It guarantees freedom of religion, conscience, language, education and culture.
-It pledges to safeguard the Holy Places of all religions.
-It describes the state as based on freedom, justice and peace as envisaged by the prophets of Israel.
-It closes with the compromise phrase “Placing our trust in the Rock of Israel” (Tzur Yisrael), which avoided an explicit reference to God so both religious and secular leaders could sign.
Israeli courts have long treated them as guiding principles.
But current genre of leaders are appearing to be completely hating Arabs and Palestinians. How will they be in the same country.
This justifies the two-state solution as the permanent solution for peace.

Prepping Iran in advance, leaving no surprises.
Do you really think Trump will resume the war after Midterms?
What’s the objective?
Bibi is lost, SPR is low. Why would any sane POTUS start a war on Iran for no reasons.
In two years, there were 4 parliaments in Israeli History. So this is nothing new. It was designed like that to confuse the world to execute Genocide.
Coalition meeting venues that meant for forming the Government should be protected well. Possibilities exist if Iran preemptively targets.
Persia might watch them closely, looking for coalition meetings where all leaders are present. A golden chance to avenge.

As Israel votes, the results will again highlight how its parliamentary system, based on proportional representation, tends to produce complex coalition politics in which minor parties can wield significant influence over government formation. It is telling that no single party in Israel’s history has ever won an outright parliamentary majority on its own.
The most likely outcome, as recent polling suggests, is that neither the pro-Netanyahu coalition nor the opposition bloc will reach the 61 seats needed to form a government on its own. The deadlock is likely to be broken only through coalition poaching, involving concessions to defecting parties or lawmakers from the opposing camp (which will once again highlight the transactional nature of Israeli coalition politics); or the formation of a broad-based emergency coalition; or a slide back into the cycle of snap elections seen between 2019 and 2022.
Qatar doesn’t want to join the camp where UAE and Saudi Arabia are in. They have different priorities. Oman is another hard nut to crack, still they are figuring out which side to lean on. Kuwait and Bahrain are lackeys. As of today, Kuwait is leaning towards Qatar and Iran, whereas Bahrain is in a dilemma whether to follow Saudi Arabia or Israel.
Good to know that big boys are sitting in table, Nuclear Pakistan, NATO Turkey, Biggest Arab KSA, and Powerful Iran. They shape up and set the new path forward.
Hope the Middle East finally comes out free from the clutches of US and Israel.
