The only message I took from the elections was that the Israelis were fed up with all the politicians. Between the record low turnout and the big win for the pension party it seems that the Israelis don't believe anyone has the answer for their military and diplomatic problems. By the way, it looks like they will get a heavy dose of socialism with Kadima, Labor, and Shas. Labor and Shas just want money for different constituencies. On balance it does not look too good.

A terrible event is scheduled to take place on April 17th every MK that will be sworn into the new Israeli Knesset all have agreed to the platform of dividing the Land of Israel, giving the enemies of God and the enemies of Israel rewards for killing so many of us over the years, not to mention going against the Word of God. Many of which were originally known to be Zionist until they came under the influence of George Bush and Ariel Sharon. Another event that has missed the eyes of the general public, Shimon Peres who brought us the death and destruction of Oslo, who armed the “Palestinians” is once again in a position of great power in an Israeli government without having to be voted in, a man who has held every high office in Israel without ever being voted in, either by appointment or murder.



We have watched Gaza quickly turn into a Terrorist Base, even while the election was taking place here in Israel we saw an escalation in attacks on Israel from Gaza. For the first time a Katyusha rocket was fired into Israel from Gaza Tuesday while the election was taking place. The home made Kassam rockets has a short range, but the Katyusha has a 20 kilometer range and they have 20 kilograms of explosives in their warheads putting the power plants and the general population of Ashkelon in range. What is almost impossible to understand or even believe is that the same MK’s who ripped Jews from their home in Gaza and gave the land to these Terrorists have now won a general election in Israel while under fire. It’s almost as if the right wing parties have all but disappeared. At the same time the Jews of Israel have lost any resemblance of sanity.



Now we have a Party in control of the Government who wants to create an even larger Terrorist State by giving Hamas all of the hill country of Israel, Judea and Samaria. Meaning they will control the high places and a large percentage of the water supply. This is of course called the George Bush Road Map to hell.



Much of Kadima’s victory of can be contributed to Netanyahu, as most Israelis will tell you that they cannot trust BiBi. Many of the Likud members simply would not come back to a party with Netanyahu at the helm. And Likud was the only real hope we had here in Israel of stopping these MK’s who have somehow been brainwashed by the Bush/Sharon propaganda machine. But even that possibility now seems to have diminished. There is no hope now for Israel other than a powerful move by the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob and many of us are expecting that to happen soon.



There are 120 MK’s and it takes a majority to form a Government, that means that Olmert will have to ask at least two other Parties to join in his coalition. Kadima got 28 seats, Labor 20, Shas 13 seats, Israel Beiteinu 12 (big surprise), and Likud dropped to 5th place with only 11 seats. Olmert will most likely ask Labor (far left wing), and Meretz 4 seats to join him. That would give the new Government 65 seats. (A very narrow coalition) What is surprising to me is they are still calling this a centralist government, if you look at the above coalition it is as far left as you can get with the exception of Shas a Haredim party. Shas made a statement in the Jerusalem Post the other day they said anyone who votes for Kadima would be walking backward into hell. But then in a later statement they said they would join Kadima if they were given the right money. So these Hasidic Kabbalist don’t mind going to hell if they can get enough money.



As for the new surprise Israel Beiteinu who came in ahead of Likud with 12 seats are not likely to join the coalition but be the new head of the opposition replacing Likud and their chairman Netanyahu.



One thing is certain the next few months will prove to be most interesting here in Israel. Olmert will have to give up a lot of MK ministerial positions to satisfy Labor who has 20 seats and without Labor Olmert could never form a coalition, and Shimon Peres will have a choke hold on Olmert from the very start. Then you have Shas who will blackmail Olmert from the very first day for more money.



In my most unqualified opinion this government doesn’t have much of a chance to last more than 1 or 2 years and it will be a bumpy road from the start. Hamas who has come to power because of Bush/Sharon and Olmert may have other plans as well. One thing is certain Islamic Jihad and others are still firing their rockets at us every day. And today at a check point in the Jordan valley a “Palestinian” terrorist was stopped who had a 10-kilogram suicide belt on heading for Jerusalem. When the first Katyusha rocket hits the power plant in Askhelon everything will change, and that could happen any day now.
