An official tally of votes in Israel's parliamentary elections confirmed former prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu's triumphant return to power at the head of a right-wing alliance

Netanyahu's victory is set to end an unprecedented stalemate in Israel after five elections in less than four years.

With the conflict with the Palestinians surging anew and touching off Jewish-Arab tensions within Israel, Netanyahu's rightist Likud and kindred parties took 64 of the Knesset's 120 seats. He was responding to a stabbing reported by Jerusalem police. In the West Bank, troops killed an Islamic Jihad militant and a 45-year-old man in a separate incident, medics said. Queried on the latter death, the army said it opened fire when Palestinians attacked them with rocks and petrol bombs.

Israeli media, citing political sources, said the new government may be clinched by mid-month. Previous coalitions in recent years have had narrower parliamentary majorities that made them vulnerable to no-confidence motions. While Washington has publicly reserved judgment pending the new Israeli coalition's formation, a U.S. State Department spokesman on Wednesday emphasised the countries' "shared values".

RIP meaningful progress towards peace and dignity for Palestinians and Israelis.

So all the lefties on here are suddenly breaking towards antisemitism just because Israeli Trump won. Hypochristians. Lol.

Hopefully trump will do the same so that he can clean up all the trash from the government and the fake news media!!!
