Don't worry. I'm sure it'll turn out the Hamas negotiators were the unreasonable ones the whole time.

So uh, sounds like it's not just Netanyahu holding up the deal but the entire right-wing coalition. Getting rid of Bibi won't fix this, their government is just like this.

*Their people is just like this. You could remove the government and hold new elections and nothing would change.

Well, maybe if they had their government forcibly removed they'd get the message.

Rule of Israel: all decisions and situations end with the outcome that keeps Bibi in power.

It makes them really easy to predict.

Postponing a controversial act until after an election is the trait of a corrupt politician - which we all know he is.
