If giving carte blanche to the militant gaystapo LGBTQ crowd and enacting taxpayer funded abortion-on-demand (both happened on Bibi's watch and he didn't lift a finger to oppose it) are considered "far right" over there, I'd hate to see what left looks like.
In actually, I would say there are numerous parties in the Knesseet clearly to the right of Likud, including most of Bibi's "coalition partners" like Shas, National Union–Tkuma, United Torah Judiasm, and ironically, Yamina. Contrary to what Bibi claims, Naftali Bennett and Ayelet Shaked have a track record much better than Bibi's and are not "fake right-wingers"
And pathetically, even the Islamofacist wackos in Ra'am are much better on social issues than "conservative" Likud.
I would say that under Bibi, Likud has been about as "conservative" as Mitt Romney, right down to immediately accepting Biden's big "win" and bashing Trump for the capitol "riot".
The Mossad told Bibi that the “fix was in” so I don’t blame Bibi for congratulating Joe Biden. The only alternative Trump had was to start a civil war and he was not going to do that.
I’m not defending Bibi but I understand that liberal Jews in NYC are farther left than any of the Squad members and they are very influential when it comes to politics in Israel.
So it goes that Netanyahu had to dance to their tune or at least appear to, It would be great to have an Israeli PM that can flip off the NYC Jewish libs but I’m not sure that’s possible because Israel is still dependent on certain interests in the US.
Your Mitt Romney analogy is on the mark. That’s the best way to describe what’s going on to American conservatives that can’t fathom Israeli politics.
