3/26/21 Kalmen Barkin on Israel’s Uncompromising Parliamentary Extremists

Kalmen Barkin fills Scott in on the political situation in Israel, a country that in his words is in complete political deadlock. Leading right wing figures like Prime Minister Netanyahu have had trouble forming clear ruling coalitions recently, in part because of their unwillingness to work at all with Palestinians. Barkin says that Netanyahu is also trying to find a way out of his power sharing agreement with Benny Gantz, which he agreed to in order to form a coalition in the last election. Because of all this deadlock, Israel is facing yet another round of elections.
