You have to laugh at the mugs who think Izrael is a democracy- let alone the ONLY democracy in the Middle East.
Bibi is committing electioneering breaches at every opportunity- and jail awaits if he loses.

First indications are that Bibi lost. Jail time looms.
Sharon died a vegetable with a voltmeter up his ass. Bibi deserves similar.

After Gantz was too quick to claim victory in the April election, this time around Blue and White's reticent. "Good night, everyone," Lapid told journalists. "We won't be responding until there are final results."

In Israeli elections, it is all about coalitions with smaller parties. Nobody is expecting Netanyahu or Gantz to win a majority in parliament. The thing to focus on instead is alliances with other parties.
The candidate with enough political allies to get 61 out of 120 seats is considered the winner. However, the exit polls that just came out – which can be very unreliable, I should say – suggest neither Netanyahu nor Gantz have enough seats to form even a coalition government.
Even with smaller parties that have already agreed to run with them, they will not have the numbers. It looks, from those exit polls, as if Israel is set for days or weeks of political deal-making.
Of course, by tomorrow morning, we’ll have results from actual counting that could be completely different.

Benjamin Netanyahu’s re-election plans in limbo
From CNN's Andrew Carey in Jerusalem
As counting gets underway in Israel’s unprecedented repeat general election, exit poll projections show the country’s longest-serving Prime Minister, Benjamin Netanyahu, and former military chief, Benny Gantz, locked in a tight race.
Just after polling stations closed across Israel, the country’s three main TV stations flashed the result of their individual exit polls -- showing Netanyahu’s right-wing Likud party neck and neck with Gantz’s centrist Blue and White Party.
These polls have a reputation for unreliability -- both Netanyahu and Gantz claimed victory on election night five months ago, amid confusion over varying projections showing each ahead. In the end, Netanyahu failed to form a coalition government, and Gantz wasn’t given a chance.
But politicians and voters alike still take them seriously, and watch them closely.
The poll for Kan Channel 11, Israel’s public broadcast network, projects Likud winning 32 seats and his main challenger, former army boss Benny Gantz’s Blue and White Party winning 32 seats.
Israeli Channel 12’s projection shows Likud taking 33 seats and Blue and White with 34, while Channel 13 forecasts 31 seats for Netanyahu’s party and 33 seats for his main challenger.
These elections are being contested by 29 parties. It is expected that either nine or 10 should make it over the 3.25% threshold, and win representation in the 120-seat Parliament.
Several smaller parties are fighting to clear that threshold, and their performance could be make or break for Netanyahu or Gantz’s ability to form a coalition.

Abortion rights dogma can obscure human reason & harden the human heart so much that the same person who feels
empathy for animal suffering can lack compassion for unborn children who experience lethal violence and excruciating
pain in abortion.
Unborn animals are protected in their nesting places, humans are not. To abort something is to end something
which has begun. To abort life is to end it.
The very fact that a party proscribed as Jewish terrorists by the US State Department was allowed to run should cause a great deal of consternation among American political commentators.Kahanist party wiped off political map
It won't though. Izraeli terrorism has long since been acceptable to mainstream America.

Netanyahu has had his bloodbaths and imperialist booty- time for him to go to jail
What of the other parties in this election ?
The Kahanists - proscribed Jewish terrorists by the US State Department- have faded into obscurity.
The likely ' winner ' is Gantz- an alleged war criminal himself.
A coalition ' kingmaker ' is Avigdor Lieberman, another out-and-out racist and fascist warmonger .
Wtf is the US doing supporting this criminal country ?
Americans should be aware that both Netanyahu and Gantz have been addressing the Izraeli public with the mantra of ' Get out and vote because the Arabs are voting in large numbers '. How racist is that ?
Can you imagine Trump doing his rounds shouting ' Get out and vote because blacks are voting in large numbers ' ? It's overt racism- and the US pays them billions of dollars annually to be successful racists and thieves.

Netanyahu campaigned frenetically and acted a little unbalanced during this election season, striking militarily as far afield as Iraq and attempting to suppress the internal Palestinian-Israeli vote by proposing putting cameras at voting booths, knowing that discriminated-against Palestinian-Israelis would therefore avoid coming out to vote. The proposal was struck down. But Netanyahu relentlessly demonized the Palestinian-Israelis as wanting to kill all of the Jewish Israelis (this is not true) and warning that his rival, Benny Gantz, would put Palestinian-Israelis, or “Aravim” as Netanyahu calls them with a sneer– horror of horrors– in the Israeli cabinet (this is also not true).
Holding a value that 20% of the population must be excluded from high political office is called Jim Crow or Apartheid or just racism. Netanyahu is always going on about how anyone who opposes his colonization of the Palestinian West Bank is a racist bigot, but there really is no greater racist bigot than he. The problem is that his rivals in the Blue and White coalition at least so far agree with him about this exclusion.

Attacking Saudi Arabia to frame Iran is Bibi's sort of plan.Israel Election Results: Netanyahu Will Pull Out All the Stops - Including Military Action - to Hold on to Power
Israelis voted to save their democracy. But the country may soon face a severe constitutional crisis if Netanyahu, facing political failure and criminal prosecution, adopts Nixon-style desperate measures
