The Israeli Government of 2023
Some 70 years ago, Israeli security services were investigating Jewish extremism. They came across a video from a far-right wedding where you've had these revelers who are captured in the footage celebrating the affair by stabbing a picture of a murdered Palestinian baby. Now fast forward to 2022 and now 2023. Itamar Benkvere and Petalo Smoltrid, the politician who condemned the wedding that he was at, ran on the same part of the same far-right party alliance. And they're now ministers in the country's new government led by Benjamin Netanyahu.
