Lately I’ve been listening to Voice of Israel, Israeli English speaking talk radio over the internet. It’s interesting because I got learn a lot more about the process, the parties, and the differing views. I am no expert by any means, but Israeli’s understand very well what they are up against, both on the world stage and on the homeland.
They are ever optimistic for both a future partner in peace and a growing prosperous Israel.
They believe when Palestinians change their text books to reflect maps with the existence of Israel, Israeli’s will go to great lengths to form a two State solution.
This is not what you get from today’s NYT’s editorial, Roger Cohen’s opinion piece, or the comments section of the NYT’s.
What is clear is the Left wanted Israel to choose suicide and because they didn’t choose suicide the Left will make them pay with with further isolation, BDS, cutting off funding, & cutting military and intelligence sharing. In other words Israeli’s must pay for daring to choose life.

It’s funny I don’t remember the fuss when Hamas or Muslim Brotherhood won in Gaza and Egypt. These wins weren’t classified as victories for extremists, but Netanyahu’s victory means Israeli’s chose a “right-wing extremists” and an “Israeli society that has given up on a two-state outcome and prefers its Palestinians invisible behind barriers.”
To the Left Hamas, Muslim Brotherhood, & Iran = good. Netanyahu, Al Sisi, & Conservatives = bad.

I think from now on, I will refer to Mr Netanyahu as “The Leader of the Free World.”

Because it’s true.

Netanyahu – 2, Obama 0. That’s gotta sting. 🙂

Bibi won a outright, landslide victory. As a parliamentary system there no doubt will be a coalition. But nonetheless the Israelis stuck it to the Great Leader in Washington.

Congratulations Bibi.

I am wondering if the leftist bias in press is everywhere including Israel. Were the polls consistently biased in favor of the left or were they misreported purposely to make it sound like a close election?

Mazel tov, Bibi! I must confess I was more interested and more anxious about this election than any foreign election in my lifetime (with the possible exception of the 1996 Russian Presidential Election). The Byzantine labyrinth of Israeli politics aside, this is a great victory.

Can ‘t remember specifics, but I seem to think Bill Climton wasn’t fond of Bibi either. I always thought both Clintom and Obama knew they were outclassed, politically, intellectually, and by way of masculinity.

9:43pm…Drudge says it’s looking much stronger for Bibi than exit polls were saying. Looks like the wonderful Tough Guy/Winston Churchill is going to continue as PM. THANK GOD!!!!

Bibi: How’bout killing a few dozen Hamas bastards to celebrate?!
