Even so, did any one Netanyahu opponent get an outright majority of the popular vote?
Maybe Israel should switch to the political rocket science that is ranked-choice voting?
Generally, one is inclined to say "Your [sic] an idiot" when someone says something with which (s)he does not agree.
But in this instance, "You're (too much of) a genius" would be more appropriate.
Israel has a parlementarian system with too many parties and too much obcession with the Ultra-Orthodox. Add to that, the huge number of whacknut Russians and Americans who think they own the Holy Land, and no political system has a chance. Eventually, they will have to choose one nation or two, and under the one-nation system, they can only choose democracy or apartheid. The US won't tolerate apartheid for long.
Under one-nation democracy, the Jewish state will disappear. I'm betting on sanity in the long run and insantiy for the immediate future.
Intelligence is not knowledge and knowledge is not wisdom, but they all play well together.
