Early exit polls suggest that Tzipi Livni will win be Prime Minister of Israel and not Netanyahu as many expected.

How do you pronounce that?

  1. T is silent

  2. She was quoted on 60 minutes as saying she would dismantle the settlements in the West Bank.

  3. The “Tz” combo in Hebrew comes off as more of a hard “s” than a “z”. It is close to the ’s’ sound in let’s say for instance, the word “fits”.

  4. Neither party has the numbers to form a government, so it could still be Likkud in power. With ultra-right wing support they’d have enough seats to form a government.

    Doesnt matter, one thing Israeli history has shown us is that no matter who is in power the song remains the same.

  5. What Abu Sinan said. CNN Int’l is certainly suggesting that Likud could still be the winning coalition. And the song certainly does remain the same with respect to the Israelis.
