| [IsraelTimes] Short-lived 22nd Knesset automatically disperses at midnight, new election season kicks off, as political turmoil continues to engulf country. With no Knesset member having gained the support of 61 MKs by the midnight deadline, the Knesset officially dissolved and new elections set for 90 days time, March 10. Netanyahu will be campaigning in the upcoming election in the shadow of criminal charges against him in three corruption probes, which were announced by the attorney general last month. He faces an indictment over bribery in one case, and fraud and breach of trust in the three cases. He denies all wrongdoing. He also faces an internal leadership challenge by Likud MK Gideon Sa’ar in an upcoming party primary. |

| #1 Of thought the Parlimentary form of gov't was ridiculous in it's inefficencies and lack of ability to actually govern ... now I'm beginning to see that as a good thing. |
