Just watched a film called Oslo. I enjoyed it, in all honesty I know absolutely nothing about this entire situation but it sounds like lots of people have been shooting guns at each other for far too long. 

 

Hopefully they'll sort things out soon.

Hopefully lacking that little bit of being a racist murdering prick. Could

be momentous especially for the innocents in the region. 

They're even further to the right than Netanyahu. I think your hope is a little misplaced.

Really? Aah for fuck sake. I read this on the BBC:

 

Israel's Benjamin Netanyahu has lashed out at a newly agreed coalition which looks set to remove him from power after 12 years as prime minister.

Mr Netanyahu called on right-wing members of parliament to block the coalition from taking office.

Eight parties reached an agreement to work together to form a new government late on Wednesday.

But the group, from across Israel's political spectrum, still needs parliamentary backing to take office.

No date has so far been set for such a vote in the Knesset (parliament). But it is expected to take place next week at the latest, and there is still a chance this newly formed coalition could be upended by defections.

In his first comments since the coalition was announced, Mr Netanyahu urged members of the Knesset "elected by votes from the right" to oppose the coalition.

In a post on Twitter, he criticised them as "left-wing" and "dangerous". He has previously called the proposed new government the "fraud of the century", saying it endangered the state and people of Israel.

Observers have already noted that Mr Netanyahu - who failed to form his own coalition despite his Likud party winning the most seats in the March vote - is likely to try to prevent the group getting the support it needs.

I wouldn't listen to a word Bibi says on the beeb. 

 

If you want a well balanced analysis of middle east politics I'd suggest following Peter Oborne..
