Among the 120 lawmakers in the new Israeli Knesset, 11 of them have a PhD or MD. Nine of these eleven are Palestinians.

• 2e scénario: Netanyahu sème le chaos, bloque la Knesset et provoque de nouvelles élections. Tant qu'une coalition n'est pas formée et confirmée par la Knesset, Netanyahu reste en place.

Liberman's "plan" seems to be that once the Knesset is sworn in, he'd convince several Likud MPs to defect. Not going to happen. But also, he won't have the guts/will to support another elections once the Knesset is in session. So, I'm cautiously optimistic.

Inconvenient fact: Palestinian Knesset members are more educated.

This is what collapsed the 2021-22 government, right? Bennett dissolved the Knesset and called for new elections because he didn't have the votes to extend the Israeli laws regarding the settlements and all policy changes are frozen in the status quo when the Knesset is dissolved.

May the Knesset create a government for peace and unity rather than hatefulness

The new Knesset will have a 67 vs 53 majority against Netanyahu.
That's a 56% majority. In most parliamentary democracies, the opposition would die for such results.
Coalition making is difficult? Sure.
But don't normalise Israel's systemic racism. It's a defeat for Netanyahu.

Arab parties have nearly doubled their representation in the Knesset, jumping from 10 seats to 19.

✊ Yesterday in Tel Aviv, Haifa, and Jerusalem, hundreds of people, mostly young, spontaneously took to the streets calling for Jewish-Arab partnership in the Knesset for a new future in Israel.

It’s time for change. Let’s make sure it happens. 🧵

Assuming that all of the other opposition parties do the same, that would mean parties with at least 67 seats in the 120 member Knesset recommending Eisenkot, and at most 53 (depending on what Shas [6] and UTJ [7] do) recommending Bibi.

Herzog will be giving the mandate to Eisenkot.

The opposition won 67 seats in the Knesset, & 19 of them belong to the Palestinian parties. The people’s demand: sit down with the Palestinian parties, form a Jewish-Palestinian✡️🇵🇸 government & kick the fascists out. @news.sky.com @euronewsturkce.bsky.social @apnews.com @nbcnews.com @france24.com

Israel is still there, doing military occupation... and in Lebanon... and Syria, etc...

You can be a west bank settler and be in the Knesset, you can't be a west bank Palestinian and vote... Or a lot of things..

... and the Knesset is still deadlocked because no one will work with the Arab parties

Faced with the imminent prospect of being thrown out as 65 new members of the Knesset (a majority) have now embraced Eisenkot as caretaker prime minister, Netanyahu pulls a Trump and seeks to have the election returns thrown out. The results perfectly matched the final round of polls.

In Israel's new Knesset, a clash between the highly educated and the semiliterate. Out of the 120 members of the new Knesset, only 11 hold doctoral degrees in various fields. 9 out of the 11 belong to the Arab parties, and one of them, Yosef Jabarin, also holds a professorial title.

Like obviously you just cannot have a legislature in India with the same linear ratios as the Knesset
