The Labor party in Israel decided yesterday to join the Likud-led government. Not without opposition, of course, and there's good questions to be asked. For example, will it help or hinder the Labor party? On the one hand, if they go in, they might alienate their voters even more, but on the other hand, if they stayed in the opposition, they'd be overshadowed by Kadima, as Tzipi Livni would get more attention than they.
Then, will this lead to a split in Labor's ranks? That too is another question still to be answered. I honestly don't care if it does. Though Kadima is surprisingly worse, Labor has been asking for it.
Ehud Barak will have to be watched closely and kept in check if he tries to do anything in bad taste, as is likely. No, I'm not forgetting that he too caused a lot of problems himself.
YnetNews is declaring Netanyahu the winner in this.

Livni miscalculated once again, I think Kadima will split over her decision, as she was even offered an uneven rotation and declined it....
ReplyDeleteYeah, that's possible that they could split up. Mainly because they really don't have any solid standings.
