What’s happening in Israel is very interesting though- what happens when a unified extremist slight-minority votes at 100% while the majority votes at 70%? Democracy fails when democracy votes for fascism.
Interesting, thanks for sharing. But the angst is pretty easy to understand: Likud and its supporters are glumly realising that they’re not calling the shots anymore. It’s the far-right that’s on the ascendant and setting the agenda. But what are Likud and Netanyahu gonna do? Once they’ve gotten on the tiger, they’re obliged to ride wherever the tiger wants to go.
It’s not clear what the lesson is supposed to be, because right now it looks like Netanyahu’s government will pocket a win.
