Israel/Palestine

Good riddance

Because I noted my unhappiness when Avigdor Lieberman’s Yisrael Beiteinu party joined Israel’s coalition government, I should note my satisfaction and relief that the party has now withdrawn from the government.

At the time I observed:

I expect this coalition will be about as stable as most of Israel’s previous government permutations– that is, not very.

A safe prediction when it comes to Israeli politics.
