  48. Nope... No one thinks he will bring peace. And his foreign affairs ideology doesn't matter because he can't do anything without 100% of the coalition supporting him, and at least one party is centre left, one is extream left and one is representing Arab Israeli's He can't do anything. What he can do is improve internal affairs which are important to the citizens of Israel despite not being taken in to account by people that only see Israel as an entity on the news while ignoring the fact it is a country with people to look after and not only pops in to existence while discussing the Palestinian Israeli war. Netanyaho had wrecked the country in many ways that do not matter to outsiders but matter to insiders, there is a lot to fix. Please remember, if you can dismiss an entire country, an entire people, in one word or one sentence, than that just points towards shallow judgemental xenophobic attitude which I doubt is what you meant. The Israeli voted for more reasons than any relationship with any other country, Israeli''s all tried to vote for whoever they thought will keep them safe, improve the infrastructure (the Israeli Arab villages and the ultra orthodox infrastructure is in need of immediate repair) strengthening the police (under Bibi the police went without a head for two years which contributed to the miron disaster) strengthening and empowering the education system access the sectors, and many other issues. As to peace, sadly it is not close yet, one day (hopefully not too far away) leaders will be elected on both sides that will reach a peace agreement, peace can never be one sided, both sides must have leaders wanting peace. Now I doubt any of them do. The Palestinian leaders the Hammas refuse to acknowledge Israel's right to exist, and that for some reason gets zero bad press, and now, we have an Israeli leader (who is blocked on doing anything about his ideology) that refuses to recognise the Palestinians. We are no closer to peace. But no further. Hating and attacking Jews is not helping Hating and attacking Muslims or other religion Arabs is not helping. Too much hate is out there. The more Jews are attacked out side of Israel, the more radical Jews join Israel. Because when Jews move to Israel out of fear of antisemitic attacks abroad, they feel they must fight for their lives in order to not march to the camps again. So... In summary. Israeli leaders are elected exactly like every other country, for what the people think they can do for their people, in many aspects that anti Israeli/ antisemitic people will not think about since it requires understand that Jews are just people. And attacking Israel by default and attacking Jews as a hobby, is delaying peace, and strengthening the extreme right in Israel, who believe that Jews must be strong or the world will happily be silent while they are marched to the camps again. Want to help Palestinians? Do so. Want to spread hate towards Israeli's and Jews just because they are Israelis and Jews, go ahead but that makes you antisemitic and anti Palestinian.
