21st Century Israeli politics is always fun to read about for its Through the Looking Glass aspect. If Trump were an Israeli politician, he’d belong to the Pathetic Liberal Squish Party, along with the Israeli equivalent of Ken Burns. From The Guardian:

Benjamin Netanyahu strikes deal with hardline parties ahead of Israel elections

Prime minister reaches preliminary agreement with Jewish Home and Jewish Power parties

Associated Press, Thu 21 Feb 2019 01.44 EST

The Israeli prime minister, Benjamin Netanyahu, on Wednesday reached a preliminary election deal with two fringe religious-nationalist parties in a bid to unify his hardline bloc before elections in April.

Netanyahu’s Likud party announced it would reserve the 28th spot on its parliamentary list for the Jewish Home party and grant it two cabinet ministries in a future government if it merges with the Jewish Power party.

Jewish Power is comprised of hardline religious nationalists who have cast themselves as successors to the banned Kahanist movement, which dreamed of turning Israel into a Jewish theocracy and advocated the forced removal of its Palestinians. …

Among the prominent figures in the joint Jewish Home-Jewish Power list are Bezalel Smotrich, a self-avowed “proud homophobe”, Itamar Ben Gvir, an attorney who has made a career defending radical Israeli settlers implicated in West Bank violence, and Benzi Gopstein, the leader of an extremist anti-assimilation group whose Twitter handle translates as “Kahane was right”.

The late American-born Rabbi Meir Kahane’s Jewish Defense League is considered a terrorist organisation by the FBI.

    At least less bloody than this:

    Since 1968, JDL operations have killed 7 persons and wounded at least 22. Thirty-nine percent of the targets were connected with the Soviet Union; 9 percent were Palestinian; 8 percent were Lebanese; 6 percent, Egyptian; 4 percent, French, Iranian, and Iraqi; 1 percent, Polish and German; and 23 percent were not connected with any states. Sixty-two percent of all JDL actions are directed against property; 30 percent against businesses; 4 percent against academics and academic institutions; and 2 percent against religious targets.

    If members of the KKK went overseas and asked Jerusalem synagogue members for donations.

    If Israel responded to African migrant crime by conducting ultra-bloody air strikes against Harlem, Watts, and Detroit.

    If Netanyahu got burned by )))Israeli((( media for being insufficiently ecstatic about White Apartheid South Africa.

    If Steve Sailer was an Israeli news columnist who became rich by denouncing Jewish privilege and railing against anti-gentilism. He constantly bitched about how his grandpa had never been a member of a super elite Israeli country club.

    If Israeli taxpayers subsidized thuggish White American welfare bums who had evicted tax-paying
    black homeowners.

    If CIA officers committed a massive terrorist attack in Jerusalem. Then Netanyahu blamed the attack on the Black Panthers, so he began a massive ground war against inner city African-Americans.

    If there was a gentile version of "Whiskey" and he passed himself off as a rural Jewish settler. He constantly showed up to Jewish internet forums and implored the members to hate racial enemies of White gentiles.

  2. Reports about this have been somewhat misleading. This is an alliance of three far-right parties – Rafi Peretz’s Jewish Home, Smotrich’s National Union, and Ben-Gvir’s Jewish Power. Think of them as the equivalent of hardcore GOP evangelicals, the alt-light and the alt-right, respectively (except all three are devoutly religious).

    It’s expected that after the election, the Jewish Power faction would split off. They would not benefit from the deal with Bibi, they would not become part of the coalition. But this way Bibi’s coalition gets to benefit from their votes.

    This is not reality, but a function of the extremely stupid media coverage about Israel.

    In reality, Israel is highly, highly liberal (although the reason is a little complicated, and partly due to their lack of parliamentary sovereignty and that all decisions are finally by the Supreme Court).

    Most politicians in Israel, are in actual actions, behaving very liberal, although they use right-wing rhetoric to appease the local voters - Netanyahu's real politics and attitude, are more comparable with Mitt Romney. Not necessarily by his own choice, but with the limitations of power when all policy is passed through the Supreme Court.

    Similar also is how Western media says Russian politics is some kind of fascism - when Russian politics is actually some kind of moderate, multinationalist centrism, with unpopular (to masses) liberalism and cosmopolitanism of the elites generally disguised by some "right wing rhetoric" of the government.

If Bibi is out, Israel will choose another prime minister from the right, either from within Likud or one of the other right wing parties - Bennett and Lieberman are even further to the right than Netanyahu.

    Labor gets the Israeli equivalent of the Upper West Side/Malibu vote but Israel doesn't have the demographics of Westwood. The Sephardic Jews hate Labor for the way its Ashkenazi leaders treated them as subhuman when they immigrated. The Russian Jews hate anything that smells like Leftism. The Orthodox hate Globohomos.

    You've confused the Labor Party with Meretz. That aside, the Labor Party has been gradually withering away, and the pollsters figure it might win only 9 (of 120) seats. IOW, it's being replaced by the social-liberal parties as the principal opposition to Likud in Israel.

    The Guardian smear of Jewish Home as “fringe” and “successor” to Kehane is really absurd. That party was most successfully led by Naftali Bennett, a software tycoon and son of a Jim Bennett from California.

    The other party mentioned the Guardian calls “Jewish Power” is normally translated as “Jewish Strength” but the Guardian couldn’t miss the opportunity to evoke “White Power.” JS doesn’t even have 1 MK right now, but is being thrown a bone so they don’t splinter 1.5% or so from the other nationalist parties.

    The Jewish Home has a number of parties in its pedigree, foremost among them the old National Religious Party. IIRC, they also absorbed the National Union, which had Moledet in its pedigree. Moledet and Tsomet were a generation back Israeli parties that advocated schemes to induce or force Arabs to emigrate, but they were conventional parties and lacked the paraphenalia of the KACH Movement and the Jewish Defense League. I think Naftali Bennet has left the Jewish Home and set up a new party, taking about half their electoral base with him.

    The Irgun and the Stern Gang were partisan organizations which disbanded in 1948. The number of 'terrorist' attacks they engaged in between 1940 and 1948 can be readily enumerated. Menachem Begin assembled his first coalition government in 1977 and Yitzhak Shamir assembled his first in 1986.

    The Jewish Home has a number of parties in its pedigree, foremost among them the old National Religious Party. IIRC, they also absorbed the National Union, which had Moledet in its pedigree. Moledet and Tsomet were a generation back Israeli parties that advocated schemes to induce or force Arabs to emigrate, but they were conventional parties and lacked the paraphenalia of the KACH Movement and the Jewish Defense League. I think Naftali Bennet has left the Jewish Home and set up a new party, taking about half their electoral base with him.

    On December 12, 2001, Irv Rubin, JDL Chairman, and Earl Krugel, a member of the organization, were charged with conspiracy to bomb private and government property. The two allegedly were caught in the act of planning bomb attacks against the King Fahd Mosque in Culver City, California, and on the office of U.S. Representative Darrell Issa, who is of Lebanese and Czech descent. The two were arrested as part of a sting operation after an FBI informant named Danny Gillis delivered explosives to Krugel’s home in L.A.[12]

    1.) WTF, there was a jewish guy named “Earl”? Was his rabbi named “Wayne”?

    Israel seeks to become only the fourth country to successfully land on the moon, after Russia, the U.S. and China. The spacecraft – called Beresheet, Hebrew for Genesis or “In The Beginning” – will take nearly two months to reach the moon.

    “We thought it’s about time for a change, and we want to get little Israel all the way to the moon,” said Yonatan Winetraub, co-founder of Israel’s SpaceIL , a non-profit organization behind the effort.

    It's not an economic leftism, but rather Israel follows an extremist liberalism and tolerance, to an almost suicidal position.

    For example, Islamic Israeli politicians say in the parliament they want Israel to be destroyed, while they receive $110,000 salaries as employees of the Israeli government.

    The universities and large companies, which have affirmative action and endless scholarships for Arab students, but not for non-Arab Israelis (this is something people complain a lot about).

    The appointed Deputy Mayor of Israel's third largest city (Haifa), is a supporter of Hezbollah.

    Or when they put in the best boarding schools, Bedouin students, and try to close the best school of Tel Aviv to replace it with a school for illegal immigrants.

    It's a kind of hyperliberalism and "virtue signalling".

    Economic policy in Israel is not leftist since the 1990s, and there is now a majority support for free-market capitalism (although the economy still has large socialist elements, and Israel will require a lot of deregulation if it will ever become a competitive economy in the future).

    I would think the Anglo-Saxon's real problem is that there are not enough Jews in the Levant. How about a few million more, guys?

    I found the "proud homophobe" comment rather intriguing.

    Googled him:
    "Yet with “brains, humour and courage”, the 37-year-old is “a far greater danger than your average rightwing clown”, Haaretz interviewer Ravit Hecht concluded after weeks shadowing him at meetings and events."

    Brains, humour and courage - why those are 3 wonderful qualities that you never find in your run-of-the-mill politician. Even more intriguing........

    More google"
    "For many years I asked myself, 'how could it be that suddenly everyone...' What, has everyone gotten lost? After all, I'm convinced that 95 percent of Israeli citizens would very much want their children to start wonderful families and give them grandchildren. A healthy person, a normal person, this is what he wants," he said.

    He went on to claim that the members of the gay community were using the media to advance their own agenda and to silence others.


    Well gosh. A guy with brains, humour and courage promoting normal family life and questioning the fact that the gay community has used the media to "big themselves up" and promote their "lifestyle".

    This is not reality, but a function of the extremely stupid media coverage about Israel.

    In reality, Israel is highly, highly liberal (although the reason is a little complicated, and partly due to their lack of parliamentary sovereignty and that all decisions are finally by the Supreme Court).

    Most politicians in Israel, are in actual actions, behaving very liberal, although they use right-wing rhetoric to appease the local voters - Netanyahu's real politics and attitude, are more comparable with Mitt Romney. Not necessarily by his own choice, but with the limitations of power when all policy is passed through the Supreme Court.

    Similar also is how Western media says Russian politics is some kind of fascism - when Russian politics is actually some kind of moderate, multinationalist centrism, with unpopular (to masses) liberalism and cosmopolitanism of the elites generally disguised by some "right wing rhetoric" of the government.

    It seems that successful nationalist leaders have competent opposition from the right. Netanyahu has these fanatics. Orban has Jobbik. Putin has (perhaps less than competent?) Zhirinovsky. This allows them to position themselves as moderates. You’re not actually supposed to give them real power though – perhaps his days are numbered?
    you do know that Jobbik was started by someone 1/2 jewish - Csanad Szegedi and
    zhirinovsky is 1/2 jewish, but he didnt resign when exposed as jewish, kept his position and even traveled to israel multiple times to cavort with right wing russian-jewish parties and visit his father's grave.

    Reports about this have been somewhat misleading. This is an alliance of three far-right parties - Rafi Peretz's Jewish Home, Smotrich's National Union, and Ben-Gvir's Jewish Power. Think of them as the equivalent of hardcore GOP evangelicals, the alt-light and the alt-right, respectively (except all three are devoutly religious).

    It's expected that after the election, the Jewish Power faction would split off. They would not benefit from the deal with Bibi, they would not become part of the coalition. But this way Bibi's coalition gets to benefit from their votes.

    Pretty amusing people's affection for malicious fiction in this joint. There are 1.9 million Arabs living in Israel as we speak, about 85% of whom have Israeli citizenship (the rest having residency permits). The numbers are considered padded by some, but there are supposedly 1.7 million living in Gaza and 2.8 million living on the West Bank. About 10% of the West Bank's Arab population lives under Israeli civil administration, and 0% of Gaza's population. There were about 1.1 million Arabs living in these territories in 1939, so if 'ethnic cleansing' is the name of the game, they're doing a shoddy job of it. Israel's made six separate attempts since 1967 to off-load the West Bank and Gaza or devolve responsibility for them to the local Arabs. All efforts came a-cropper, maybe because self-government isn't what the Arab political class or the Arab publics want. They want what you want: dead Jews.

    "if ‘ethnic cleansing’ is the name of the game, they’re doing a shoddy job of it."

    Not shoddy at all, sweet one. Israel has gone about the business of ethnic cleansing in a highly effective and creative way. After all, the Judeosupremacists have to maintain their victim image for the credulous goyim, so it can't be like the good old biblical days at Jericho and Ai.

    When Eastern European Jews first began working in earnest to seize Palestine at the end of WW I, the area was 93% Arab. The transformation into a Jewish state with Jews in control of the most land and ALL the levers of power and a subjugated Arab minority population tolerated as long as it succumbs to the power of the Judenreich is quite an accomplishment. Not quite as rapid as the genocidal einsatzgruppen rolling through Canaan but just as effective over time. And let's give dear, sweet Israel credit for the huge numbers of Arabs chased into Jordan, Lebanon and elsewhere, and the building of apartheid, Jews-only infrastructure in the West Bank, which have also contributed to a very successful and ongoing program of ethnic cleansing.

    Now, the use of embargoes, economic warfare, lawfare, incessant settlement-building, the driving down of Arab birthrates and simultaneous promotion of high Jew birth rates in the West Bank, forced emigration and a host of other tactics are pushing the ethnic cleansing project full speed ahead preparatory to annexing it one day.

    Also interesting that former Egyptian president Mubarak has very plausibly claimed Bibi's goons advanced the idea of herding the population of Gaza into Egypt in exchange for some kind of compensation. Even Mubarak rejected that out of hand.
