Hoping Netanyahu gets beaten soundly. Too close to call in the polls. Record numbers of Israelis flying home to vote. The Israeli Arab voters could swing it against Netanyahu.

If it’s a deadlock then he stays in power and out if jail just a little bit longer. |  |

Both irony and sarcasm are doing a lot of heavy lifting here.  |
Not sure it translates to the medium of text! |  |

I'll bear that in mind for the future!
And I suppose it brings to mind the time when I got a downvote for saying (as a joke) that Maeda's grey hair made me concerned he was prematurely ageing. [Post edited 28 Oct 21:48]

It's not a term of endearment. It's how he's widely known in Israel regardless of people's views of him. |
it is originally a term of endearment, it may have been adopted by the populace but that does not change the fact that the roots of the name comes from his family. Using it kind of humanizes a monster. If it is used by his population then it belongs to the population. Would you get an Israeli referring to Mrs Thatcher as Maggie. I doubt it. |  | | |

What I struggle to get my head around is how the media and seemingly most of the world are talking about him and this election as if this a perfectly normal democratic election with him as your big standard, average Joe valid candidate. Why isn’t the only question being asked ‘when is he appearing in front of the ICC in The Hague and, if not, why not?’. It seems like we’re normalising genocide and giving validation to a likely war criminal. Or am I missing something/over-reacting? |  |

You're doing neither.
It's a creeping, long-standing, disgraceful stain on so-called civilised western democracies. |  |
