Exit polls show Israeli PM Netanyahu short of securing majority

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has fallen short of securing a parliamentary majority with his religious and nationalist allies in national elections, initial exit polls showed, setting the stage for a period of coalition negotiations that could threaten his political future and clear the way for him to be tried on corruption charges.

Addressing his supporters late on Tuesday , a jubilant Lieberman said he saw only "one option:" a broad, secular coalition with both Blue and White and Likud. After that, the prime minister designate would have up to six weeks to form a coalition. If that fails, Rivlin could give another candidate for prime minister 28 days to form a coalition. And if that doesn't work, new elections would be triggered yet again. Rivlin has said he will do everything possible to avoid such a scenario. Tuesday's election was an attempt at clarity after the April election failed to produce a coalition.

Netanyahu had sought an outright majority with his allies in hopes of passing legislation to give him immunity from the expected indictment.Israel's Attorney-General has recommended charging Netanyahu with bribery, fraud and breach of trust in three scandals, pending a hearing scheduled next month. A formal indictment would increase the pressure on Netanyahu to step aside if he does not have immunity.

He tried, and failed, to pass legislation that would allow cameras in polling stations, a step he said was needed to crack down on alleged fraud in Arab towns. Facebook suspended his account for 24 hours last week after it published a post saying that "Arabs want to annihilate all of us."His proposal, which could extinguish any remaining hopes for a Palestinian state

Brilliant news

Wouln’t be such a bad thing would it?

Well, that writing was on the wall. Netanyahu is closely connected to both the extremely corrupt Donald Trump & the Triad money launderer James Packer of Crown Casino. Organised crime only flourishes when in the shadows, come out into the light and they burn, burn, burn

Good

Trump can’t pardon him 😂
