Political Implosion in Israel?
When, where, who?
Last time I looked, 30 minutes ago, netanyahu and his gang of mass murderers were still in power.
Political Earthquake in Germany ?
Last time I looked, 10 minutes ago, the party is power since 1945 (CDU-CSU) won the most votes in the elections (28%) and the new (s)elected “chancellor” and former Blackrock manager, Merz, already said:
1/ that he will not make a coalition with Afd (20.5% and 152 seats in the Bundestag) but rather a coalition with the losers SPD-greens…
2/ Merz also declared that he will allow war criminal netanyahu to come to Germany without being arrested…
So where is the “Political Earthquake”” exactly?

Yep confirmed today.
Was it an election in Germany or in Belgium?
Because, so far, they voted to get rid of the SPD-GREEN and they get the same regime CDU-SPD-GREEN after voting.
Is there a comprehension or IQ problem in Germany or is it that their electoral system is rigged?
