Well here's a positive note on how things are going so far in this election:
Bayit Yehudi and National Union plan to run as one list in the upcoming election, signing the agreement overnight Thursday after a long negotiating period.
The parties will alternate seats on the list, with Bayit Yehudi getting the odd numbers and National Union the even. If the list has an odd number of seats, then there will be a rotation for the last seat.
National Union will get first choice of cabinet posts – meaning that if the party is in the government, National Union leader Bezalel Smotrich will likely become a minister - but if there is only one ministry given to the party in coalition negotiations, then that, too, will be rotated between Smotrich and Bayit Yehudi chairman Rabbi Rafi Peretz.
In addition, all decisions for the faction will be made by the leaders of both parties.
This is good, but they should still bring in more like the Yachad party of Eli Yishai, if only for the sake of even better unity. Will they be willing to do that by the end of next week? We'll see.

Harvard Law Professor Alan M. Dershowitz said:
“But more always seems to be demanded of
the Jewish nation and of the Jewish people
than of others. Jews, unlike other groups,
are expected to be in the forefront of
defending the rights of their sworn enemies.”

Harvard Law Professor Alan M. Dershowitz said:
“I refuse to bend over backward to single out
Israel – or other things Jewish – for super-scrutiny.
I refuse to gloat, as so many in academia and
the media seem to, over Israel’s shortcomings.”

Winston Churchill said this in 1937 CE:
“When the Mohammedan upset occurred in world
history, and the great hordes of Islam swept
over these places, they broke it [Palestine]
all up, smashed it all up. You have seen the
terraces on the hills which used to be cultivated,
which under Arab rule have remained a desert.”
