Events are moving quickly in Israel, where President Shimon Peres has tapped Likud Party leader Benjamin Netanyahu to form a coalition government. It is expected that the process of deal-making and power-brokering may take some weeks. America has a backgrounder on the Israeli elections in our Signs of the Times section in the hot-off-the-presses print edition. The breaking news story from The New York Times can be found here.

''I don’t see any difference between Hamas and Lieberman'' Wow! Thank you for the perfect example of reletivist, latent Anti-semitism which seems so prevelent in academia today. As a side note: Anybody who complains about our country's two party system just study Isreali politics a while - talk about complete disfunction and disproportionate democratic power.
