The biggest problem with Israeli politics is that we are all, how can we say, a little used to thinking in terms of tribes. There is the “white tribe,” the “second Israel,” the “settlers,” the “leftists,” the “progressives,” the “ultra-Orthodox,” the “national religious,” the “Russians,” the “Arabs,” the “Druze,” and the “kibbutzniks with the open shirts who like to make fun of everyone.”

Welcome to Israel. A country with seven million political commentators and zero stable governments.
