Polling day in "Israel"
.
Nutty yahoo is about to face the music of his domestic
popularity (or lack thereof) as elections are being held today.
It is difficult to get a read on the odds of replacement, but my
guess is he will not fare well. The failures of OCT 7 are still in
the minds of the voters left. Trying to shut down Palestinian
polling stations is one of the dirty tricks he is using.
According to the International Court of Justice, about two million Palestinians reside in
Gaza who are under Israeli military occupation and also do not have any voting rights.
In the occupied West Bank territory, nearly 3.1 million Palestinians reside who are under
military rule and don’t have the right to vote.
Jail time awaits should he lose. Any thoughts?
In local news -

"Supporters hope Providence's binding divestment measure will become a national model."

Zionism is a social disease

You are welcome

Voter turnout at 44.9%, highest in decades as Netanyahu claims election stealing.
Gotta blame someone. Preventing 5 million voters using military law doesn't count?
The voter turnout among the eligible prisoners in the ongoing 2026 Israeli elections
stands at 68.1 pr cent as of 2 pm, according to the Israel Prison Service.
How are prisoners counted? Sounds kinda kinky.
Zionism is a social disease
This is one of those elections
.
...where it really does not matter whether Netanyahu wins or loses.
Israel is a pariah nation; a dead man walking.
Sadly, voters are not held accountable for the monsters they elect.
The only semblance of justice would be for Netanyahu to win, and for that nation to hang him around their necks like an albatross. A lesson, and a deterrent, and an enduring shame that exposes the voters who unleashed him upon the world..
The US will soon be facing another shameful Presidential election of its own. Many voters now have some grasp of how the US political system has betrayed them and has heaped adversity on their futures. Will they show show up and vote for more of the same disrespect and depravity? The older generations will definitely show up to vote-their-fears. It's their usual going-away gift of reactionary laws and delusional politicians — and the ensuing consequences and fallout that they will never have to live with.
The future belongs to the youth
.
I can only hope they are learning by the present, as to
what the consequences are for ignoring the evil enacted
in 'our name' during these times.
Zionism is a social disease
I just saw a headline somewhere
that says N'Yahoo is asking to extend voting hours. Is that the new "thing"?
No matter who Israelis vote for, they will get John McCain.

If at first you don't succeed
lie, lie again. Until you get the results you want?
