The message of the Israeli left is as familiar as it is disgusting. "Israel had better cede to our enemies right away, Or Else The Big Bad: U.N. E.U. Obama Etc. will REALLY get mad at us. Heaven forbid. The the idea of Israel standing up for her rights with strength and dignity is totally alien to the leftist mind.

This must be the only country that votes for a government that bashes its people financially in favor of a minority and gets away with it! The real problem, left, right and center, is EGO and, like Yesh Atid's Yair Lapid, making a party out of nobodies surrounding his ego and jobs for friends policy!

The real issue is how they plan to close the 30 billion Shekel hole in the budget - because there is no point in a tax law called sharing the economic burden while ignoring the real issue sharing the Haredi burden. Shas obviously will hide that our cost of living is a result of investing all of our resources in people who chose to be poor by having children they cannot afford whilst stealing money from the rest of us.

David, you have never been to the U.S., dont let Netanyahu go, 1 is better than none

and i thought the lazy only came to the U.S. for welfare, suddenly i feel slightly better, however the war brewing against your country with the islamic neighbors seem more imminent than your debt problem, your in the billions, the U.S. is in the trillions

Bibi has a good record on economics, experience in the military and of life outside and inside politics. In the past has been very good on leadership & security although he has kind of let himself go on that a little recently. In Labor you got socialist Shelly who plans to spend big but doesn't say how it will all be paid for and has no political experience. Livni hasn't decided yet what she is going to stand for, right now she is just trying to attract leftist voters because she doesn't have any hope of selling herself as a right wing party and winning any seats. Lapid doesn't stand for anything but an oversized ego and will prostitute his Knesset seats to anybody who invites him into their coalition. When thats the opposition even if you can't stand the man you have to vote for Bibi. Just wish we had just 3-4 parties all lead by sane people with no ego issues and are experienced in politics and are responsible. No more Meretz, no more Livni, no more Lapid, no more Shas, no more arab parties just responsible politicians. ONE CAN WISH
