Netanyahu won over the Arabic community, and the Israeli left can't stand it
The Center-Left has been having a field day recently over Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's "discovery" of the Arab Israeli electorate. Their excitement was, of course, immediately channeled into hateful statements and social media posts – look at Netanyahu, using Arab Israelis to further his political agenda.And in this followup article, they continue to note the increase in Arab support for Netanyahu:
Truth be told, the dialogue and political integration with the Arabs sector is the good news we have been waiting for.
In Judea and Samaria, it happened a long time ago. Those who live here know that the Arabs are part of us. We're not going anywhere and they have no specific plans to disappear, either. Anyone who talks to Palestinians on the ground knows that the Palestinian Authority is irrelevant and that both sides still suffer from its inception.
For the most part, the average Palestinian in the West Bank actually hoped that Israel's plan to extend sovereignty to parts of Judea and Samaria and the Jordan Valley would be implemented and that they would be given the option to extract themselves from the PA's clutches.
Peace with the Emirates and Islamic states around the world dwarfs the PA in comparison with Israel. This is not new but the Left has failed to understand that. First, the Left didn't like it when settlers and Palestinian became friends without promising to evict their homes; the Left blistered at the peace deals with Dubai and Morocco because they excluded the Palestinian issue, and now the Left is a heartbeat away from railing against Arab Israelis who acknowledge Netanyahu as Israel's leader.
Recent polls delving into potential trends among Arab Israeli voters ahead of the March elections are showing a surprising increase in support for Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.It's excellent news. Something the leftists can't bear, as they continue their steady collapse. But there you have it, there's signs of a change for the better in this region.
Yousef Makladeh, CEO of the Statnet Polling Institute, which surveys trends patterns in the Arab sector says the data shoes support for Likud and Netanyahu among Arab constituents has increased sixfold: if over the past election year some 10,000 Arab Israelis voted for the ruling party, the next elections are likely to see at least 60,000 of them vote for Likud.
