PELONI: This would be the best option for both Netanyahu and the nation. Any govt which formed as a consequence of the current election will always be tainted by the implication of voter fraud effected by Israel’s enemies to swell its anti Zionist parties. Even if these parties were not included in the govt, the effect of their absurd turnout would nonetheless hold a bearing on the disproportionate trimming of the Jewish vote in forming a govt to rule the Jewish state. More than this, the preference of the Left to even consider including the Arab parties in their govt, particularly after the implications of foreign hostile influences, will be considered and judged by their support in the next election. Additionally, all those who saw fit to sit on their hands or to vote for political parties which were clearly never going to pass the threshold would see the real world consequences of making such poor choices, as well as having the opportunity to approach the election with a greater sense of responsibility in their voting choices. But of course, we are many weeks from such a possibility taking shape, but it will require the Haredi parties remaining with the Right, and Liberman not coming to ultimately save the Left. Notably, Trump is likely to push very hard to have Bibi ultimately join the Left in forming a party, but this would deal a crushing blow to both Bibi’s reputation, legacy and potential electoral chances if such a govt quickly fell, as has happened before. So we will see.
