If you accept the victory of Kahanism, the Likud and the Haredim, as is likely, this will open the way for the formation of a government of madness that will adopt a salvation agenda that will burn everything.

Commenting on this matter, journalist Mona Hawa said that the preliminary results say that Netanyahu wins a majority in the Knesset, which will enable him to form a completely right-wing government, and the Ben Gvir movement - which vows to expel Arabs and demands the Judaization of Al-Aqsa and the application of the Torah in the Jewish state - will be the second largest The party in the ruling coalition and the strongest in influencing the decisions of the Netanyahu government.

The Kahanite movement headed by Ben Gvir has announced that any government that will participate in it after the upcoming Israeli elections will enact a law that legalizes the execution of the death penalty against Palestinian resistance elements and the expulsion of "anyone who works against Israel."

Experience and repercussions

Under the hashtag (the Israeli elections), Shakib Metwally's account said that there is no difference between the current Prime Minister Yair Lapid and Netanyahu, and that the ball is now in our court, as Arabs and Muslims, and our position on supporting steadfast parents and their uprising, this extremist society knows only the language of force.

In a reading of the relationship of the Israeli election results with the Palestinian Authority, Palestinian writer and researcher Osama Abu Rashid said that one of the catastrophes of the Oslo “Agreement” is that the Palestinian Authority thinks that it is a hostage to whoever leads the Jewish state, while it is hostage to and at the service of the occupation institution, and a “moderate” Zionist party does not differentiate. He leads the government from an "extremist" party, all of whom are occupied terrorists.

He added that Mahmoud Abbas and his ilk will mourn the misfortune of "peace" over Lapid and Netanyahu's arrival.

One of the disasters of Oslo is that the Palestinian Authority thinks that it is a hostage to whoever leads the Hebrew state, while it is a hostage and at the service of the occupation establishment. A "moderate" Zionist party that leads the government does not differentiate from an "extremist" party.

They are all terrorists.

#Mahmoud_Abbas and his people will mourn the misfortune of "peace" that made a difference to #Labid and the coming of #Netanyahu!

In this context, the Palestinian writer Yasser Al-Zaatara said that the Zionists have nothing regarding our people but “economic peace,” whether Netanyahu or Lapid wins. To restrain the people, and thus to make the temporary permanent, Netanyahu is distinguished by useful rudeness.

The Zionists have nothing to do with our people, except for “economic peace”;

Whether Netanyahu wins or Lapid.


The latter's talk about the two-state solution is an illusion that the security and military establishment adopts as anesthetic needles to accelerate Arab normalization and improve the status of the authority in order to restrain the people, and then make the temporary permanent.


Netanyahu is distinguished by useful brazenness.
