I love these outliers!
P.S. Why “right” and “center-left”? Shouldn’t it either be “left” and “right” or “center-left” and “center-right”? There’s really only one right-wing party, and that’s Ichud, which in the elections is half a party. Can you honestly call the Chareidi parties – or even Likud – right-wing? In the current Knesset I would include BY in that question. (I’m not going to try to characterize the left-wing parties.)
(LATMA has been running some nice clips on this, such as a soldier being asked to march, “right, center, right” and then being told had two “center feet”.)
You’re completely right mzk1, about these 2 categories “Right” and “Center-Left”.
It’s completely illogical to separate Likud from Livni’s party.
Put together arab parties (especially Ra’am-Ta’al islamists) with Livni and Lapid in each poll result is just a running joke.
Bibi would prefer to govern with Lapid and Livni, but if Shas and BY have enough seats that will be impossible. Hence Bibi’s anger against Bennett. That’s my point of view.
That is not fair, oh no! 😉
the parties are categorized into three streams Right, Left and Center but i dont believe that in Israel there is idealogy or stream called the center, because all the parties claimed to be center parties adopted zigzag polices and were without idealogies and dissolved like the Kadima, Shinui, the Center party and the Third Way parties, so it is either Right or Left
My point of view :
Avoda, Meretz and Hatnua can be classified as left (secular, pro-disengagement, pro-state…) . Yesh Atid seems a true centrist party but still closer to Livni than Bibi so it is classified with the left.
Likud Beitenu is clearly on the right (secular but socially conservative, pro-settlement, pro-market…).
I agree that the haredim parties should not be classified as right, just like the arab parties should not be in the center-left bloc. But its better than the other way around ! 🙂
Another classification could be left, right, arabs and “swing/other” made up of Shas, Yahadut haTorah, Am Shalem, Kadima and Yesh Atid.
Center-left and Center-right or center-right-religious. It’s not hard. We don’t have to let the MSM define thigns for us.
I’m surprised by the low numbers of Labor and Livni. Is Cartography reliable generally ?
What a weird poll. While I love the idea of Green Leaf with 3 seats, I’d be more than a little surprised.
