Here we go again

New elections in Israel, its really a bit much.
There is so much fragmentation in the political arena in Israel that elections seem to happen all the time.
The main problem is the frustration of center left parties that Israelis seem to be continuing to go to the right wing.
This right wing move is not in one party but rather in smaller parties that end up creating a weak coalition.
Then when push comes to shove this weakness becomes acute and the government falls.
The center left will likely lose more seats in the upcoming elections making the frustration even greater.
Someone once said that the hardest job in the world must be being the prime minister of Israel.
Its even harder that that.
