Despite a “global left-wing conspiracy” to stop Benjamin Netanyahu, he won his country’s election yesterday.
The re-election of Bibi translates to more war and death for the Palestinians and the Israeli as well as anyone else caught-up in this long-fought Middle-East conflict.
Netanyahu has vowed not to allow for a Palestinian state which throws a diplomatic monkey-wrench into any prospects for peace with the Palestinian people. Statements that refute any chance of peace will frustrate the Obama administration as they seek out peaceful resolutions to the Gaza conflict.
The continuous creation of Jewish settlements in former Palestinian lands makes the possibility for peace that more difficult of proposition and all the more unlikely.
According to the United Nations, Israel has been illegally occupying Palestine for close to five decades now.
