Kadima quits the coalition!
 |
| But mom... he said that I could be the choo-choo driver! |
Kadima Chairman Shaul Mofaz announced this afternoon that his party will be resigning from Israel's governing coalition. The move comes after the failure of efforts to write a new law including ultra-Orthodox Jews in military service for all Israelis.
Kadima's resignation from the coalition will not immediately bring down PM Netanyahu's government, but difficulties in negotiating the next budget amidst an economic slowdown are likely to prompt the prime minister to call for elections in early 2013.(bicom)
Jez...if you just pop out for a piss, your coalition partner has shafted you. Israeli politicians need their collective heads banged very hard with a rams horn. It seems that if you use your eating utensils in the wrong order at some posh state banquet, this would be sufficient to ruffle their bloody sensibilities and have one Mr Ego or the other marching off into the wilderness. Don't any of them understand this simple fact? Unity before and above all else, is the prerequisite for a nation threatened with extinction; and it doesn't really matter one flying fuck if you can't get some guys with twirly hair bits into the army this side of Armageddon. Oh do grow up the friggin' lot of you!
