Polling stations opened at 7 a.m. on Tuesday as Israeli citizens headed for the ballots to vote for Israels 20th Knesset, bringing a heated campaign season to a close. Polls from the end of last week left options open for a tight race. TV exit polls were published at 10 p.m., as polling stations closed, after which official results began to roll in. The official final results wont be publicized until Thursday.

Latest update: According to the major exit polls, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is within easy reach of a right-wing coalition.
Likud, Jewish Home, Yisrael Beytenu, Shas all of whom are essentially committed to backing Netanyahu for premier come to 48 seats.
If Netanyahu entices Kulanu and United Torah Judaism, likely an easy bargain to make, they will help him over the top with 63 seats according to Channel 2s poll.
The same coalition reaches 64 seats in both Channel 10s and Channel 1s exit polls.

I hope so, just to see the sour look on Obama’s face.

If the Israelis boot Bibi, they deserve what they get...much as was the case here recently.

Overall, Likud picked up 9-10 seats.

With 100% of Palestinians having been ginned up for the Left by 0bama, that’s another miracle to chalk up for Hashem.

If Netanyahu’s coalition reaches 63-64 seats, won’t that be a slight pickup? Currently these same parties number 61, just barely giving him the premiership.

St. Patrick’s day, and now this. I don’t know about anyone else, but it appears that the gods are practically insisting that we drink today.

Palestinians = Israeli Arabs.
My bad.
As opposed to the rejectionist Arabs who used to live in the area who fled in hopes of the immediate initial destruction of the U.N. and British mandated, and G-d Given, Israel.

If this is true, if this bears out, this will show that God is more powerful than Satan. Our country, America, has been under Satan's control for a while now. (I believe 1973 was a crucial turning point).
A win by Netanyahu will show that God still favors Israel.
