Editor’s Note: I am sure that many of you are keen to hear about how things seem to be playing out in Israel as we near the election date of October 27. Believe me, we’re all on tenterhooks. Beginning next week we will deliver more on that topic…..but the final two to three weeks are going to be the clincher. I’ve lived through enough elections here that I feel confident in making that “call”……but won’t go any futther than that. Predicting election outcomes in this country? A high-risk endeavor.
