herzogn is one to talk, he goes to ramallah and says abbas is a true partner. What a simpleton. He has no chance of being elected pm because he looks, acts and talks like a weakling with no great military record and a naviete bordering on criminal.

Netanyahu is unable to react to changing circumstances on the world stage. He is unable to understand the suffering of the ordinary normal decent Israeli living in Israel proper. What he does understand whilst eeating ice cream paid for by the taxpayer, is that arming and then paying the Settlers creates a vast private army interested in keeping him in power.

NO THANK YOU.

Yet more derision ,from he with little vision : " In the kingdom of the blind ,Netanyahu is King ...."

Thinks he is the elite because of his ancestors. Recon they are turning over in their graves with this black shirt - does he not know the significance of the colour - he could ask the holocaust survivors still living and then before opening his mouth remember it was his party who refused to issue them with sufficient means to live on - it was not the Likud!

Without any voters so go get a life and then start to talk. Israel is sick of the left.

Five minutes as Labor's Leader and this is the best he can do? All I hear is a sort of pitiful whining, and, instead of presenting a new labor vision, the usual lefty attacks on the Prime Minister. What a disappointment.

Prime Minister Netanyahu , while admittedly imperfect ,is worth ten of Mr .Herzog who is a classic " armchair critic" and I do not particularly like Netanyahus; style. In addition , Israel has many issues ,e.g. illegal immigration ,palestinians infiltrating over its borders etc not just the " piss process ."

is to stand against dividing the land that God gave his people ....

Abbas the keys to his Tel Aviv apartment yet. I guess he is waiting for Achmed to first drop him off at the airport.

Will you ever put a muzzle on your stupidity? Good grief, madam, you are bewitched by the lies in your constant drivel on this forum.

May G-d protect us from the visionaries of the Left. Hasn't Israel suffered enough damage from their wish-fulfillment dreams? At least we can sleep at night when Netanyahu is CEO.

dear mr herzog , your party and the ideology it has are no longer relevant . there is no partner willing to accept israel as a jewish state .i am sorry your party has changed 8 or 9 leaders trying to find its way . the fact is even if labor changed 50 leaders , it is gone . its ideas have been tested and found to be failing . please have the wisdom of being quiet

Alas Adon Herzog's leftist oriented visions are always funded by the realities of the working population. Better that he seek the fulfillment of his visions utilizing Peyote or other imbibable or smokable product. His preceptions would be more practical and closer to reality. The crash of the socialist vision when it meets reality is dangerous to all who are not wearing a political seatbelt. Sic Semper Polititurds!!!

Labor "visions" inevitably produce lunatic Israeli which maim and murder Israelis by the thousands. Somehow, Israel must find a way to make Labor compensate tens of thousands of Israeli victims of Labor's Oslo criminal negligence.

Who said Palestinians are offering a deal leaving a Jewish majority Israel? Labour acts like Israel just has to negotiate it. What of the other issues? An Israeli leader requires not just a backbone but some sense too.

Whatever name you choose to sign under, don't you think for a second, that you fooled anybody on this board... As every other coward and fraud, you are clueess of reality...Your lies about "settlers" are "cheap" and pathetic,making you desporate & delusional... For your information, the ancient Jewish land of Judea and Samaria, was Jewish about 3000 years before you and your tribe came to existence and will remain such for at least another 3000...Have a nice day...

Cuba economy and demographics are way better than Litva, Estonia, and Latvia combined. But of course, those dudes have fantastic international relationships...

Having no vision would be better than having the vision Bibi has: the settlers' and Haredi fantasy of a Greater Israel. Not only is this madness – the world will not agree to this fantasy and we will only be put on the garbage heap if we continue pursuing it – it is undemocratic madness: most Israelis want a 2-state solution. Bibi is not visionless, but mad and undemocratic, and must not continue leading this nation.
