| NIRO (OP) User ID: 1157900 Israel01/23/2013 06:34 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I thought that 'jewish home' or somebody fairly right leaning was the big winner, gaining the most new seats. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 14322762 Could you post a breakdown, seats taken and political position? It was anticipated that the "Jewish Home" party will be a big winner, but their momentum fell significantly. Here's the breakdown: Total Mandates: 120 Likud-Beiteinu: 31 A joint list of Benjamin Netanyahu and Avigdor Liberman Right wing Yesh Atid: 19 Headed by Yair Lapid Anti-orthodox platform Center wing Israeli Labor Party: 15 Headed by Shelly Yehimovitz Social-democratic party Left wing Shas: 11 Sephardi religious Jews party Right wing security-wise and left wing socially-wise The Jewish Home: 11 Headed by Naphtali Benet Religious Zionism party Ultra right wing United Torah Judaism: 7 Ultra Orthodox party Ultra right wing Hatnuah (the movement): 6 Headed by Tzipi Livni Center Meretz: 6 Headed by Zehava Gal-On Social-democratic party Ultra left wing Raam-Taal: 5 Arab party Anti-Israel-as-a-jewish-state party Hadash: 4 Joint Arab-Jews party Ultra left wing Balad: 3 Arab party Yet another anti-Israel-as-a-jewish-state party Kadima: 2 Headed by Shaul Mofaz Center If you sum it all up, it comes down to this: Right wing, including all religious parties: 60 mandates. Left wing, including the Arab parties, and all central parties: 60 mandates. Netanyahu will have a very tough time forming a coalition in this political ecosystem... |

If BiBi can't form a government and the left comes to power, Israel is going to be in some deep shit, especially with the muslim-in-chief at the WH ! |

Jewish Home were the ones all for annexing the Palestinian territories ye? Will this new coalition get anywhere trying to build peace or is that not really an option with Netanyahu about? |

BS First sign of hope for Israel in the last decade I got the feeling you supported the left, but now you've confirmed it ! I bet you supported Obama as well ? Why don't you move to Hollywood along with or other brothers who voted for the communist at the White House right now ! BiBi is the only one with enough guts to stand up to Obama and protect Israel's interests, if the left comes to power they will serve Israel to Obozo on a platter ! |
