Can someone please explain to me why the MSM is so blase about the results of the Israeli election? While they came in less than the optimistic projections, Kadima has enough seats to form a strong coalition with Labor, and Netanyahu’s militaristic Likud is soundly defeated. This is an explicit affirmation of Olmert’s plan to remove up to 90,000 Jewish settlers from the West Bank, forcibly if needed. The people of Israel have finally, emphatically, said “enough.” How is this anything but a resounding win for peace? Or maybe that’s the problem?
