FROM NEW YORK TIMES: 

Isaac Herzog, Israel’s president, has a largely ceremonial role — except after national elections, when it is his responsibility to choose a potential prime minister and then tasks that person with trying to form a government.

FROM THE ECOMOMIST: 

Binyamin Netanyahu, who has been in office for a total of 19 years and hoped to form an unprecedented seventh government, does not appear ready to accept defeat

FROM THE TIMES OF ISREAL:

The Central Elections Committee announces 53 seats for the bloc led by Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and 48 seats for the bloc led by Yashar leader Gadi Eisenkot.

The Arab parties have 19 seats, a historic high.

At least 61 seats are required for a majority

FROM NBC WASHINGTON:

Netanyahu was defiant early Wednesday as he tried to position himself to remain the country's longest-serving prime minister

MALEVOLENT CREATION: "Malevolent Creation bassist Jesse Jolly and guitarist Chris Cannella are no longer members of the bands touring lineup. During rehearsals for our now complete Latin American Tour it was apparent there services as live musicians were not needed."

 

Fort Lauderdale, Florida, U.S.A. death metal veterans  MALEVOLENT CREATION have announced live touring musicians (BASSIST) JESSE JOLLY and (GUITARIST) CHRIS CANNNELLA have been fired from the band.  

MALEVOLENT CREATION have announced lineup changes as PHIL CANCILLA and LEE WOLLENSCHLAEGER have left the band.

MALEVOLENT CREATION unleashed "THE 13th BEAST",   1/18/2019 via CENTURY MEDIA RECORDS. 

FROM MALEVOLENT CREATION: 

Malevolent Creation bassist Jesse Jolly and guitarist Chris Cannella are no longer members of the bands touring lineup. During rehearsals for our now complete Latin American Tour it was apparent there services as live musicians were not needed. The core members Ronnie Parmer (drums) Deron Miller (vocals, guitar) and band founder and guitarist Philip Fasciana were going in one direction and Jesse and Chris were going into another. Everything is still going on schedule for the recording of the bands 14th studio album "Return Fire" and all future touring plans for 2027 - 2028 are still in the works. Our new bassist will be named shortly and we remain a 4 piece band again (Having a 3rd guitarist for live shows was a bad mistake) We wish Jesse & Chris all the best for the future and are not going to talk down on them as it simply was not working out. We have a lot of touring plans for 2027-2028 and we couldn't go any further with Chris & Jesse. MC prides themselves on there live performances and we need to keep the future live shows to be as powerful as possible. We do have some great bassists in mind and have not made a decision yet on who will be the right one for the job. If you are a great bassist and believe you have what it takes you can send in a video of yourself to fascianaphilip@gmail.com. The MC Tank continues to roll and cannot wait to finish up work on our new album and continue touring for the next few years. Hope everyone understands that at times change is need to continue to the levels as expected when playing live. And, once again all the best with Jesse & Chris's and they're future endeavors.

Ronnie, Deron and Phil show no signs of slowing down and our new album comes first and live performances will start up again in early 2027. Malevolent Creation Band

My offer to Mr. Chris Cannella is to pick any song from the setlist we were playing live with him and make a video of himself playing a song from start to finish without any mistakes and i will personally give him $1,000. He has till Friday to prove himself. This will clear up any questions as to why he was fired from the band and why Jesse Jolly had to go as well. Come on Chris, prove me wrong and collect $1,000! The clock is ticking!

Phil
