Tras la disolución de la Knesset en octubre de 2012 como consecuencia a un estancamiento en el presupuesto estatal, se llevaron a cabo elecciones anticipadas. El primer ministro Benjamin Netanyahu creía que organizar las elecciones anticipadas en un momento en el que disfrutaba de altos índices de aprobación conduciría a una victoria fácil para el partido de centro derecha Likud. Sin embargo, las elecciones no salieron según lo planeado. Si bien el Likud ganó, el partido de derecha Yisrael Beiteinu y el Partido Likud perdieron cantidades significativas de votos. En cambio, el nuevo Partido Yesh Atid de centro izquierda recibió un gran apoyo. El resultado representó una disminución temporal para la derecha de Israel y un sentido de esperanza para el centro izquierda. Los continuos problemas económicos y de defensa, así como múltiples tensiones culturales y religiosas, han empujado el enfoque electoral de Israel nuevamente hacia una coalición conservadora.

Monday March 09, 2020: The United States stock market continues to be rocked as investors over-react to illnesses and oil futures. The Saudi's & Russia fail to agree on oil supply approach...as Russia refuses to reduce production, Saudi's cut prices, creating instability. In addition, as plane and cruise ship travel is curtailed, oil demand decreases creating further imbalance with supply. Voter fraud in Israel turned victory for conservative Likud Party and Benjamin Netanyahu into uncertain path forward to new government. Leftist Blue & White party of Benny Gantz forging alliance with Yisrael Beiteinu party of Soviet-born Putin puppet Avidgdor Lieberman. Democrats are coalescing behind Joe Biden as the only posssible path to victory over Trump in the US for President in 2020. Tuesday March 10, 2020: The stock market continues to over-react to the Main Stream Media's gleeful reporting of the potential negative impact of the virus as they persist in their minssion to destroy President Trump at all costs. Putin's Russia, in it's ongoing quest to dominate the West, against all false beliefs that Putin is supporting Trump, has been conspiring with OPEC to create an alliance that would propel Russia into world control. Upon the collapse of those negotiations, Russia's oil production remains too high according to OPEC, and OPEC's pricing scheme is too low for Russia's taste. The virus continues to be of great concern, but needs to be kept in proper prespective as cures are soughtand the coming warmer weather will dissipate the threat. The Deep State persists in Washington D.C., FISA reform is tenuous, AG Barr has not taken strong action to clean up the DOJ, and only the reporting of critics like Tom Fitton of Judicial Watch exposes the truth. Wednesday March 11, 2020: Trump Confronts Putin on Panic Issues. Why Putin loses. Bernie a 2-Time Loser to HRC in DNC. Questions persist about Barr being another Deep State cover-up artist. Thursday March 12, 2020: President Trump is continuing the fight to apply reason and prudent action to dealing with the spread of the virus while the Main Stream Media and Democrats are determined to bring him down even if they destroy the country at the same time. Independent Communist Bernie Sanders, running as a Democrat in the race for the 2020 Presidential nomination, vows to say in the race as the Democrat establishment doubles down backing an increasingly vulnerable and faltering Joe Biden. Meanwhile, the specter of Biden's UkraineGate and a plethera of other issues plague his campaign as Hillary Clinton conives in the background. like HIlter in the bunker. Vladimir Vladimirovich Putin attempts to change the rules in Russia in order to follow in the footsteps of Xi Jinping of Communist China (who has made himself in essence emperor for life). Meanwhile, Putin's short term thinking to become the oil winner against the United States and OPEC is doomed to failure. Causing Russian oil producers to absorb massive losses by holding prices artificially low while betting on the ability to outlist his rivals and rebound will fail. Friday March 13, 2020: The left, AKA Main Stream Media + Demcrats, created and propogated the fake news hoax now known as Russiagate, which then evolved into Ukrainegate, which has now become Virusgate. Italy is suffering as they fell prey to Communist China's Belt & Road Initiative, selling their clothing companies to the Red Dragon, and reaping the whirlwind of imported illness, with the highest number of infections outside China. Where's Joe Biden? Oh, accusing President Trump of applying "favoritism" through his concerted and appropriate actions to keep America safe. The stock market downturn is a buying opportunity for prudent investors as the market appears to be stabilizing will recover and grow again. This is also a time to consider precious metals as fiat currency continues to be in peril regardless of stock market conditions.

New York resident who visited Israel last week tests positive for coronavirus; Palestinian Authority investigating first suspected coronavirus infections. Yisrael Beiteinu says will back bill to bar MK facing criminal charges from forming government. Syria accuses Israel of carrying out overnights strikes.

Rod Reuven Dovid Bryant and Jerry Gordon bring back a frequent guest, Dan Diker, Director of the Political Warfare Program at the Jerusalem Center for Public Affairs (JCPA). They discuss with Diker the apparent Netanyahu victory in the third election in a year in Israel, the rising Israeli Arab quest for normalization in the Jewish state and a new book on Israelphobia and the West published by the JCPA that has caught a wave of attention in Washington, Jerusalem. Alan Dershowitz who participated in a roundtable discussion before an audience of 250 at the JCPA remarked that he considered Israelphobia and the West as the bible on combatting the new antisemitism of Israel as the Jewish state and the return of violence against individual Jews, that occurred in Pittsburgh, Poway, Jersey City and Monsey, New York in the US. Violence against Jews not seen since the Holocaust that took the lives of Six Million European Jews. While the results of Israel’s third election will not be available until early next week, nonetheless, it appears that with 95 percent of the vote tallied that Likud has 36 mandates versus the Blue White alliance’s 32. The Likud led right bloc composed of Shas, Agudath, other religious parties and Yamina are within striking distance of forming a possible ruling coalition with 59 mandates or seats in the Knesset. The Final tally may show perhaps another 3 to 4 Knesset seats from 100,000 votes remaining to be counted. That would cement formation of a Netanyahu ruling coalition in an unprecedented fifth term as Prime Minister. Diker note that the voter turnout was the highest since 1999. Diker attributes that result to intensive campaigning in predominating Likud base areas. That was facilitated by use of an Israeli software system Elexor that identified low Likud base turnout in previous elections and sent text messages to cell phones urging voting turnout. Should President Rivlin grant PM Netanyahu the right to form a new ruling Knesset, that would effectively dent the reputation of Avigdor Liberman and his right wing secular Yisrael Beiteinu party as ‘kingmaker’. Liberman, the former foreign and defense minister in previous Netanyahu governments scored only 7 mandates in this election. Beyond the Matrix 04MAR2020 - PODCAST

March 3 is Super Tuesday. "Fourteen states, plus American Samoa and Democrats Abroad, hold their contests today, awarding 1,357 delegates, or 34 percent of the total available," the Washington Post reported Tuesday. "Polls start closing at 7 p.m., with Vermont and Virginia. California's polls are the last to close, at 11 p.m. ET." With The Hill reporting Tuesday: "Late-breaking polls showing former Vice President Joe Biden making big gains following his decisive victory in South Carolina," what are we to make of this political landscape?"With 92 percent of the votes counted in Israel's third and unprecedented election in one year, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's Likud is currently the country's largest party," Haaretz reported Tuesday. "However, neither the premier nor his chief rival Benny Gantz are projected a clear Knesset majority. Netanyahu is currently three seats shy of a 61-seat majority in the Knesset. The Joint List, an Arab-majority alliance of factions, maintained its position as the Israeli parliament's third-largest party, according to the latest count, whereas Avigdor Lieberman's Yisrael Beiteinu and left-wing alliance Labor-Gesher-Meretz lost ground." A Tuesday Reuters headline reads: "US sending $108 million in aid to Syria, supports additional border crossing: State Department." The article says, "The United States will send $108 million in humanitarian aid to the people of Syria, State Department spokeswoman Morgan Ortagus said on Tuesday. The United States also strongly supports the recommendation to open an additional border crossing between Syria and Turkey to deliver aid and medicine made by United Nations Secretary General Antonio Guterres, Ortagus said." This while Reuters reported the same day: "Turkey, Russia face off in Syria as fighting escalates, plane shot down." What are we to make of this?The US Federal Reserve on Tuesday cut interest rates by a half percentage point in an emergency response to the COVID-19 coronavirus outbreak. The major stock indexes were down before the announcement. After an initial bump, the indexes went down again. The surprise move comes after G7 leaders held a conference call to talk about the outbreak, but their statement did not indicate any immediate action would be forthcoming. The cut brings the interest rate down to between 1% and 1.25%. GUESTS: Nicole Roussell — Sputnik producer and news analyst.

Allison Kaplan Sommer, Noah Efron and Wunderkind critic Ohad Zeltzer-Zubida discuss three topics of incomparable importance and end with an anecdote about something in Israel that made them smile this week. --Godlessness: The Theory-- The doyen of Israeli sociology and a major public intellectual J’Accuses the left of swapping out good, Enlightenment values for mamby-pamby postmodern relativism, thereby allowing the rabbis to take over the country. Does she have a point? --Godlessness: The Practice-- Avigdor Lieberman and his right-wing Yisrael Beiteinu party say that only they will keep Israel “liberal” by beating back the rabbis. Were we wrong to think that the right, by nature, admires religion? --Meanwhile, at the Movies…-- Should settler filmmakers get tax shekels to make settler films about settler experiences on settlements? --Is Birthright to Thank for the Increase in Jewish American Babies?-- For our most unreasonably generous Patreon supporters, in our extra-special, special extra segment discuss an essay by Brandeis Professor Leonard Saxe, suggesting that the birthright program has “helped bring about a 25% rise in the US Jewish population.” What is it – if anything -- about two weeks in Israel that could possibly account for the increased commitment to American Judaism?

Six weeks after Benjamin Netanyahu was tasked with forming the next Israeli government, the prime minister is being led a merry dance by Yisrael Beiteinu chairman Avigdor Lieberman, who is refusing to join the coalition unless Netanyahu agrees to pass a law ending the draft exemption for yeshiva students.
