An interesting article on Mansour Abbas, leader of the Ra’am party and the role they could play in the coming elections. I think it’s interesting to see what impact they might have in an election where jewish-arab relations are extremely fraught but to some degree I concur with what Abbas says in the article
> “In politics you say what you want before an election and you do what you want after the election”
Ultimately politicians want power and if the Ra’am party ends up holding a key to said power, they will be of importance to Bennett, Netanyahu, and the rest.
