Israel’s new government is facing a crisis of legitimacy as a prime minister whose party won only 6% of the vote is set to take the reins of government, while the party that won the most votes is being pushed out of office and into opposition.
The crisis is exacerbated by the fact that incoming Prime Minister Naftali Bennett of the Yamina party betrayed most of his promises to his voters, including a pledge not to govern with Yair Lapid of the Yesh Atid party, or with Arab parties.
There are parallel to the 2020 election in the U.S. Though few claim that the Israeli election was “stolen,” as the country has in-person, hand-counted voting, there is a sense on the Israeli political right that the result was manipulated unfairly.
Moreover, incumbent Prime Minister Netanyahu has been under investigation for years, and faces trial on rather flimsy charges. And Israelis are perplexed that Bennett, a politician with a small constituency, could have emerged the winner.

Well, Bibi didn’t hesitate to congratulate Joseph Stolen. So there’s that.
Why Israel chose a parliamentary form of government, I'll never know.I dunno, the Representative Republic version didn't work so well last time.
It’s a parliamentary system. Bibi could be back in within a year.
Did they use Dominion, too?
Yes, and President Trump immediately unfollowed him on Twitter.
garbage bags full of votes for Netanyahu have been found in ditches?
Israel started out as an extremely communist country. The kibbutzim were basically just communes. Israel's break with ant hill economics and movement towards a market economy somehow strangely coincides with the western left flipping their support from Israel to the Palestinians.
We win the prize for the most horrific scam by a long shot. At least they didn’t get poopy pants and the hackling whore. Also, it didn’t involve the court system and China. I could go on but you get the idea. You can’t even dream this up in mad max.
As much as I’m disheartened this wasn’t a scam or cheat - it’s how parliamentary systems work.
It’s also obvious that Obama is up to his old shenanigans and probably throwing massive amounts of Soros’ money at them to forge a fake alliance and to further ingratiate the communist takeover there
President Trump should congratulate the new government. Touché.
Election fortification is what it’s now called. That’s when the power of bureaucrats, media propagandists, and progressive Marxists, coordinate to counter the voting habits of citizens to achieve an outcome of their choice over the traditional vote. It’s “quality control” of elections.
Get in line Benny
Bibi was willing to overlook Joseph Stolen’s theft of the US election.
No sympathy here.
“Moreover, incumbent Prime Minister Netanyahu has been under investigation for years, and faces trial on rather flimsy charges.”
Sounds like the folks than were behind the Trump Russian collusion are at work in Israel.

No kidding.
Bibi knows darn well where the ‘biggest election scam, in history’ happened.
It happened to the ONE guy who has offered Israel the greatest support, in decades.
Biggest? Bibi, hey! C’mon, man!
