25. Israel was ruled by Labor governments for most of its history.
Edited on Sun Mar-14-10 05:48 PM by Kurska
"The left" has been as unable to find any sort of possible solution to the I/P conflict as the "the right", because sadly it seems there isn't one that can be generated just by Israel, neither side is willing to compromise and on the rare occasion one sides tries to the other never responds in kind. Left, Right, Center, the conflict isn't simple enough that even the entirety of the Israeli electorate could solve it, no matter who they elect. The continuation of the conflict is not only on the head of Israel.
