Third time's a charm for Bibi?

Is a fourth election possible? Certainly looks like significant instability remains.

[Zionist Nationalist]

We need to change the electoral system in which the biggest party will make the coalition without requiring 61
as I said and I was right that Gantz have no chance and all he is doing is try to tease netanyahu and try to block his way

I enjoyed watching leftist tears last night I hate the Israeli media they are like CNN

[Beren]

So what now? Knesset elections each quarter until Bibi's convicted?

.... Israel is clearly facing the very real prospect of a fourth election in less than a year and a half.

What a joke.

It does seem to be a real crazy system the way it has played out.

the fake left really is a godsend for the hard right. I just hope the fake left sputters out before we're all goose-stepping by torchlight.

Well the good news is, you're probably getting Gantz now regardless of Netanyahu's "win"(read "same result as the first election"). Lol.

Willing to form government with the Arab parties to "break the deadlock" now. Lol.

Not gonna happen.
2 members of Gantz party said they wont support this move
also orly levy from avoda gesher said she will not support that means Gantz now have 59 votes no majority and he is losing alot of popularity thanks to his flirting with the Joint list

Gantz and the center left are a toast

Everyone appears to be toast at the moment.... Lol.

Liberman is still supporting Gantz. So Netanyahu is also toast(can't form government either) since he currently only has 58 seats, is still fighting the charges and clearly doesn't want a Unity Government (since that means he's essentially out, even if his party isn't).

Clearly Gantz is banking on his two rebel ministers falling in line with the party. Which they probably will.

Israel is definitely going to a fourth election otherwise.

I can't believe after three elections you've ended up with essentially the same results all three times. Three Draws in a row. The voters clearly "want a Unity Government", no one is willing to budge. Lol.

According to recent polls only 30% of the public support Gantz forming a government under JL support

Gantz is going against against the will of his voters he will lose alot of mandates next elections

there is also a chance that a unity government will be formed because of the coronavirus spreading

Looks increasingly like Gantz is going to form a minority government. His two "rebellious" ministers will be told to pull their heads in. And regardless Netanyahu will most likely agree to a Unity Government headed by Gantz now anyway.

Gantz is definitely becoming the Israeli Prime Minister now. You need a unified approach to the Coronavirus outbreak, not a fourth election.

Gantz wont for a government he have 61 recommendations but that does not mean he will be able to convince everyone to sit with the Arabs

Gantz is a toast the fact that he choose to ignore his voters and side with the Arabs will make sure he wont get much support from the general public

You are conveniently forgetting you country is in the same International crisis as everyone else!

This is an unprecedented emergency situation.

If Netanyahu doesn't agree to a Unity Government, Gantz will go with the current minority government plan. Bank on the Israeli public caring more about the Coronavirus response than the fact he's in bed with the Arabs.

Emergency government with likud and kahol lavan is fine and there is no need for anyone else

I wouldn't be surprised if Gantz's negotiation tactic with Bibi for a Unity Government is "Agree to a Unity Government with me in charge now or Im going to form an emergency Minority Government with the Arabs!".

In some sense Likud and the Chinese Communist Party are of similar level in competence and morality.

Netanyahu is one of the few Western leaders whom I think better dead.

It is a mystery why a decent country like Israel has repeatedly elected this scum as prime minister.
