JERUSALEM (AP) — After nearly four years of political deadlock and five elections, Israel swore in the most right-wing parliament in its history on Tuesday.
Prime Minister-designate Benjamin Netanyahu is working to cobble together a far-right and religious governing coalition in the 120-seat parliament, or Knesset. The surging popularity of a right-wing alliance once on the fringes of Israeli society helped propel Netanyahu’s political comeback even as he stands trial on corruption charges.
The 25th Knesset was sworn into office with trumpets and choral music just hours after a Palestinian assailant went on a deadly rampage in an Israeli-controlled industrial zone in the occupied West Bank, killing three Israelis and wounding three more before being shot dead. Netanyahu’s likely right-wing coalition partners have vowed to act more aggressively against Palestinian attackers to protect Israelis.

They see that traitors have taken hold of the US government and they realize they need to circle the wagons if they want to survive until some sanity returns to Washington.
Yea!
One advantage of parliamentary system is you can fire losers like Biden quickly.
It’s also a weakness because losers can fire good people.
A further bad side effect is our entrenched deep state views the elected officials as temp workers, especially our judiciary that has been in Leftist hands for 50 years.
It’s not a sure thing by any means that Israel will have a ‘right wing’ government. There’s tremendous pressure for a ‘national unity’ government with Leftists.
“far right”
“corruption charges”
Yawn.
I’m sure every leftist will continue to believe it is ok to ‘charge’ a conservative just to stop them from getting into office. As the end justifies the means by any means necessary.
Far-right = law and order, controlled borders, sexual morality, keep ‘trans education’ away from kids
If you want Israel to be safe and prosperous, right wing is a good thing.
For the Ass Press, Adolf Hitler was a middle of the road moderate who stood up to the “right wing” Zionist movement.
Has there ever been a headline stating that a government is the MOST LEFT WING in history?
We'll, we'll have to wait and see how far "Right Wing" that actually is.
You go Bibi.
The AP is just itching to throw the word “Nazi” in there with “right-wing”, but that would be going too far even for them.
“Israel swore in the most right-wing parliament in its history on Tuesday.”

Does anyone here recall the AP, or any other Lamestream media outfit for that matter, having a similar headline with “left-wing” in it?
[crickets]
Yeah, thought so.
Yes, great minds think alike (my #13). Didn’t see yours, just wrote the first thing that came to mind when I saw their biased headline.
Uh, 12.
In this context, “right wing” == Orthodox religious.
The reporter could not have written a move biased story.
Associated Press jihadist maggots.
They were saying similar things about Shamir because he had Haredi parties in his coalition. Anyone to the right of Abbie Hoffman is an “extremist”. Any right-wing dominated coalition is “the most right-wing in history”. If you have no respect for history, you have even less for posterity, per Burke.
Well put.
