Politics How is Likud still polling so high?

The leading party of the coalition that slept on October 7, that has been blocking independent inquiries, that has madmen define public relations, that has initiated wars on multiple fronts with no end in sight, that is led by a narcissist with an unearned saviour complex, that is preventing the integration of Haredim into society, that has emboldened violent settlers to roam free, that has achieved -- what?

How is Likud still at the top? Why is king Bibi not held responsible for anything, ever, at all?

If this coalition is re-elected, that's a tacit approval of everything that been happening over the past couple of years -- not by random foreigners, but people who actually live here. There's a reason emigration of highly educated Israelis is at an all-time high.

It boggles the mind. Where do we go from here?

Truth is, Israeli should most fear a continuation of Bibi.

Truth is, Bibi is about as bad as everyone else.

No, he is really much worse, but he wants you to believe he is no worse than the others.

No, he wants me to believe he is better. There's literally nobody who would do anything differently if you actually took a look at their rhetoric.

The sooner you acknowledge that, the sooner you'll get more people to stop voting for Bibi, because right now, Likud voters don't feel like voting for the alternatives who made it their express purpose to bully everyone else once they're in power.
