[♪ INTRO MUSIC PLAYING [♪

It's Thursday, April 11th, 2019, from Slate to the Gist, I'm like Pasca High.

I know what you want me to talk about. The Israeli election. You suggest it. I can ask it.

So Benjamin Netanyahu is the cood party. Got as many seats as the centrist party named

Blue and White as opposed to Lucude whose logo is Blue and White.

The reason that a BB is back, baby, is that he's aligned with some quite far-right parties.

Hadash, it means new. Left-right or center. They're the commies. They're very left.

Zehut. It means identity. You would think they'd be a right-wing party. And they are, but they're

Kennedy. Slash, quimby. Vega. Vega. Yes. That is a left-wing social democratic green party.

Then you have Hattuna. I'm not going to make them a macaque joke, but it means the movement.

It is Zippy Livney's party. They're left former labor party cabinet minister. Zippy Livney.
