    Although the results that emerged after the elections in “Israel” are not an exceptional event, unprecedented in the regional and global scene, especially those policies that rely on identification, such as the victory of the right in the elections in Italy, and the rise of the right in the French elections, racism (Israeli) is distinguished from others by its reliance on total genocide, and the intersection with everything talked about in human rights literature.

    Repeating the Election Scenario: Failure, Collision, and Inability to Formulate a Way for Stable Government Work

    The elections for the twenty-fifth Knesset were held on (Tuesday) 1/11/2022, and these elections are the fifth in almost four years, as no government coalition could continue until the end of its supposed four-year term according to the Basic Laws in “Israel”, and the Knesset elections were scheduled to be held in 2025, but the inability of the government coalition to continue as a result of ideological and political differences between the parties  Synergists made it very difficult to continue joint political action.
