Israeli Election

Thanks to Tim Blair, have found this blog covering the Israeli election.

If I was voting I would be voting for Kadima and then Labour ahead of Likud. The rump left behind by Ariel Sharon are too extreme (mind you that worked for Hamas!).

Current exit polls suggest Kadima should get 30 – 32 seats and are likely to be able to form a Government with 62 – 66 seats out of 120 in support.

This means there will be a partner for peace on the Israeli side. The ball will be firmly with Hamas as to whether they are prepared to achieve a lasting piece.
