Things are interesting in Israel leading up to the March 17th election.
First, Bibi's Likud party (right) was slightly behind in the polls. Then, he made the speech to the US Congress and polls showed that his party pulled slightly ahead of Isaac Herzog's Zionist Union party (left).
This weekend there was a huge Anti-Netanyahu rally in Jerusalem and calls from Israelis for Israel to pursue more diplomacy with its neighbors and to pursue the two-state solution with Palestinians instead of Netanyahu's apartheid plan. Today, Bibi's party is 2 seats behind in the polls again.
It's a really close race with only 9 days until the election.
