Too inclusive a union might actually cost the bloc some votes, because the purists in each section of the public to the right of Likud might opt to stay home if they're turned off by this or that partner.

There's nothing quite like featuring the photo of exactly the wrong Rabbi in your hate campaign.

The only way out of this stalemate might be a solution that includes a Likud prime minister, but not necessarily Benjamin Netanyahu.

Itamar Ben-Gvir: "Rabbi Peretz should not use us as a bargaining chip against Bennett and Shaked."

Ehud Barak, whose term as prime minister was one of the shortest in Israel's history, owes an apology to a long list of his victims.

Shaked has been quoting a lot of traditional Jewish terms these days – much the way Hillary Clinton used to drop the hard G's at the end of her sentences the further she got below the Mason-Dixon line.
