re: #90 ProTARDISLiberal

That doesn’t change Likud’s past however. People in what became the Likud party were responsible for things that have made Israel’s life hard, like Deir Yassin, Al-Dawayima, the purging of Ramla and Lydda, and the assassination of Count Folke Bernadotte (a big factor in the extremely frosty relations between Sweden and Israel).

No different from the BJP or the MB.

But parties can rise above their pasts: The Democrats in the US over time came to abjure segregation and embrace racial equality*. In the same vein, Likud has reformed. And lastly, do remember that following the most recent Israeli election, Likud crafted a governing alliance that excluded the ultra-Orthodox religious parties, and has since actively fought against ultra-Orthodox attempts to impose their practices on others.

*: Note that I was saying something the Democrats have done right, not aiming BS accusations.
