I certainly hope you are correct on this one Sarah! Lieberman with the defense portfolio would put the fear of G-D in Israel's enemies! I would also recommend Sarah B for the Foreign Ministry Portfolio!

As you can read and see, I am not one who spoke out against Gregg, however, I would like to say that the reaction to Gregg had nothing to do with his politics. It was his desertion of his own nation and own people that irks others and that, I agree with! He does not deserve to live in Israel if he can so easily desert her and throw her under the bus. Go educate yourself Sam.
33. #18 - Chai
Michael ,   Canada   (10.25.12)
You are absolutely right! Good combination to tackle the looming threats about to come!
34. I join the other talkbacks and demand:
Keren ,   IL-BR   (10.25.12)
BARAK OUT!
35. All the fascists in one bag!
Dan   (10.25.12)
Now all you have to do is put it in the garbage bin.

ZIMBI ,   NJUSA   (10.26.12)
37. Right, Left, Center: 3 parties for IL. No religious & rest.
Michael ,   California, USA   (10.25.12)
Yes three, no more, the political waste in Israel must end. Right will be united under Netanyahu and Lieberman; Center will be united under Yesh Atid; Left will be united under Labor. Time to end the sixty five years of wasteful coalitions.
38. Lost my vote!
Talula ,   Israel   (10.26.12)
39. Prime Minister Lieberman? Somebody shoot me.
Ilan   (10.26.12)
40. Logical ....
JoeW ,   Haifa   (10.26.12)
More than a few people were considering voting with Lieberman to get rid of Bibi. So Bibi got in first and voted for Lieberman himself. No brainer really. Wonder how Queen Sara is taking the news of another "first lady".
41. A new year's gift that comes early
Vlad   (10.26.12)
Now you don't have to choose between Likud and Yisrael Beiteinu. You can vote for them both! By the way, I now have an absolutely hilarious vision of a Prime Minister who looks like a mix between Bibi and Lieberman, and whose name is Bibigdor Lieberyahu.
42. Yachimovich and Livni to join forces?
michael redbourn ,   Arad Israel   (10.26.12)
Senior sources close to Labor Chairwoman Shelly Yachimovich and former Kadima Chairwoman Tzipi Livni said Thursday that that the two women will negotiate the possibility of running under one ticket in the upcoming election. Yachimovich is likely to offer Livni the no. 2 spot in the Labor list as well as the role of foreign minister in the event the party wins enough votes to form a government.
43. Short memory
Michael ,   Haifa   (10.26.12)
Netanyahu has forgotten that Lieberman used to be a bouncer
44. Netanyahu merge
Teresa Green ,   Modi'in Israel   (10.26.12)
Netanyahu would do anything to stay in power. His number one perogative is Netanyahu not Israel.
45. 12, Hey Greggy, good riddance and
Haifa,Haifa   (10.26.12)
don't forget - go fly a kite !
46. Sam (19), actually, you are defending
Haifa,Haifa   (10.26.12)
a foreign body who is blindly opposing the existence of Israel. Gregg a very disturbed anti-Semite who has always been against the country that fed him and gave him shelter and safety. Actually, you raise against the only Middle Eastern democracy, that is Israel, a country that gives the likes of you to express your deepest and most hidden destructive thoughts without being in harm's way at all. You know very well what would happen to you and the Greggs of this world had you expressed these lethal ideas against the Arab country you lived in. Your instant condemnation to death and your summary execution,that is. Instead of eulogizing a retard anti-Semite you should better redeem him from Italy (not a good country for the likes of you) and take him with you to a Muslim paradise, say Syria or Saudi Arabia. There, you will certainly be able to spew your discontent against the government of the host country.
47. #31
TG ,   Modi'in Israel   (10.26.12)
Lieberman with the defense portfolio puts the fear of G-d in me!!
48. Netanyahu and Lieberman together
toledano jean-pierre ,   israel   (10.26.12)
It's a very good move of Natanyahu. The 2 parties have almost a similar political view and because there is a possibility that Lieberman will be indicted by the prosecutor, his Knesseth-members of Yisrael Beiteinu will not be left behind like orphans. For the upcoming struggle or war with Iran it's good to have a firm and determined block, that's not listening to Obama's siren chants. It's also good that Yachimovich wants to form a great left political block. With all the little existing parties Israel is almost not governable. We have like that a conservative and a left block, the first defending Israel and his survival, the latter more listening to Obama, Europa and Russia. Anyway I don't trust too much Obama's promises. Let the voters decide.
49. #13 Greg
Chaim ,   Arad   (10.26.12)
When you land in Italy, does that mean that you will not be posting on what is happening in Israel? Sorry to inform you, but you have made a decision you will regret.
50. YESH!!!!!!! BRILLIANT IDEA!!!!!
Israeli ,   Haifa   (10.26.12)
Now, remove Shas from holding so much power as they have proved to be corrupt. Give the Misrad-HaPanim tik to someone else!!!!! And, I do not believe the negative polls. Its just leftist media propaganda and lies.
51. #29
israel israeli ,   tel aviv   (10.26.12)
UTJ won't join because they are Haredim, not Zionists. They will make part of any coalition. NRP does not know what they want. They are still run by corrupt politicians who joined Barak's disaster government of 2000. Look at the current Orlev-Bennet struggle. When they get their house in order, they can decide what to do.
52. #47 history
israel israeli ,   tel aviv   (10.26.12)
Look at history, and tell me what is better for Israel Right DM: Ahrens: ends First Intifada, destroys PLO Leftist DM Rabin: resurrects PLO. helpless against the First Oslo War (bus bomb war in Tel Aviv) Leftist DM Peres: invasion of Lebanon, Kafr Kana massacre Right DMs Mordechai and Ahrens: end bus bomb war Left DM Barak: Second Oslo War, Nachal Iron massacre, installs Hezbolla in Lebanon, tries to surrender Golan to Assad Left DM Fuad under Right PM Sharon: ends second Oslo War, but send miluimnikim to die in Jenin Left DM Mofaz: surrenders Gaza to Hamas Left DM Peretz: loses Second Lebanon War Left DM Barak under Left PM Olmert: loses Cast Lead operation Left DM Barak under Right PM: Mavi Marmara, abandons the South to Hamas attacks
