Ultra-Orthodox parties accuse Netanyahu of failing to deliver on his promise to pass a law that would permanently exempt young men from their community studying in yeshivas, or religious seminaries, from compulsory military service.

Bibi hasn’t had the votes for years, that’s why he keeps cancelling elections.

The far right are the ones pushing for genocide, because they don’t have to fight and they’re usually the “settlers” stealing land.

They want their exception permanent because there was talk of it going away

But Bibi can’t win an election with them, he def can’t without them. If they’re dumb enough to actually call an election and it happens …

That’s the end of Bibi, as soon as he’s out of office his corruption trial starts and he is obviously and blatantly guilty.

This is the clearest path to ending the Iran war too, without Bibi wars can actually end again.

I sometimes get the feeling Israeli politics are pretty fucked up. A bit like in America, but with ten parties instead of two.
