Why does Ra'am support hardcore religious fundamentalist settler jews like Yamina? They're one of the main drivers of the settler projects in East Jerusalem and beyond, right?

Not to mention the ideological(in as much as ideology could differ in a colonial settler fascist state) shitshow that is the coalition made up of 7 different parties(!), this shit is going to fall apart in like 5 weeks.

    Someone on :reddit-logo: said that this coalition was put in place to pass two laws, one of them to limit PMs to a certain number of terms and the other to bar anyone under indictment (or whatever Bibi's situation is) from serving as PM. After that the government will disband and they'll have like their 5th election in a year, but without the evil orange man regular zionist man. I do not know if this is actually true but it sounded more reasonable than conservatives and liberals sharing the post :shrug-outta-hecks:

    Israel's Parliament only has 120 seats so some of these people are in parties of like 4 people lol. Comrade fed is right, this purely to get rid of Netanyahu.

    I'm normally a huge nerd for digesting election results and following coalition negotiations, but with Israel it's just so exhausting. Every single year there seems to be a completely new set of inscrutable niche parties with like 2 seats each and zero internal party discipline, and usually things are so finely balanced that all of them are crucial to the parliamentary arithmetic.
