Yet another way in which Netanyahu and his minions are working to undermine democracy.
Nazareth, January 18 – The morons who run Israel’s current ruling party apparently believe they can garner votes from the non-Jewish population of the country by appealing to their hope for a peaceful shared presence, mutual prosperity, and other constructive visions, like a bunch of fools who have no clue how to campaign, observers say.
Incumbent Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu visited this Arab town in the north of Israel this week and received what amounts to an endorsement from the mayor, signaling his and the Likud Party’s intention to pull voters from a demographic that has historically voted in percentages significantly below the numbers their population suggests, an idea that any fool knows will fail, commentators noted today.
“Oh, come on,” sneered Meretz Party stalwart Michal Rozin. “Everyone knows the Likud doesn’t care about Arabs. All the prosperity and government funding that increased in the Arab sector under Bibi means nothing. We’re the ones who care about Arabs; we’ve just never been able to convince Arabs to vote for us in large numbers, but at least we treat them with the enlightened racism of the White Savior complex, encouraging them to wallow in the agency-less politics of grievance, and not with some brainless attitude of trusting them to let them decide what’s good for them.” Recent polls show Likud might pick up two seats from Arab voters in the 120-seat Knesset; the party currently holds 36, but is expected to fall to the high twenties in elections this March, partly as a result of breakaway factions.
“At least assume Arabs vote for one of the parties of the Joint List,” insisted Haaretz commentator Gidon Levi. “What kind of idiotic presumption is this, that Arabs might vote for non-Arab representatives? If they don’t stay in their assigned ethnic lane, that disrupts all of my, which is to say all thinking people’s, view of the world, and we cannot have that. This is yet another way in which Netanyahu and his minions are working to undermine democracy. He must be stopped.”
Surveys project that the Joint List, comprising four mostly-Arab parties, will drop from their current thirteen seats to ten in March, the outcome of factors such as disillusionment with the alliance’s leadership and greater openness to alternatives outside the rigid traditional framework of “Arab” parties. Netanyahu and the Likud expressed their intention to continue pursuing the imbecilic idea of expanding the party’s base to include Arabs who seek a shared prosperous, secure future, and preliminary poll data show thousands of ignorant Arabs accepting that doltish premise.
