1. surprise
peter ,   tel aviv   (05.17.14)
what is the MK so surprised about. Our PM is known for making no decisions. He is busy playing important statesman and rambling about him being the only being on earth defending us from the impeding holocaust. He does not want any peace treaty with the Palestinians and he will always find a way to break off any negotiatians. He is busy trying to abolish the presidency ,buying a jet and built a new residence. At the same time our deficit is growing kids live in poverty and price tag attacks are happening daily By the way the MK should not even consider a post as deputy minister since this was one of the main election slogans of his party to stop those positions since they are only very cost consuming.
2. yesh atid doing israel no favours but

lapid and shelah's ideas for peace are nothing for israel, nothing but more terror. On the other hand, shelah is right about bibi=he is gutless to the core. That he is better than olmert and livni is small comfort. Where the hell are leaders of fiber. Instead we get the rotten oslo brand of appeasers and delusional disconnected dreamers.

4. A fast backward composition!!
AVouskila ,   South America   (05.17.14)
Is it just me or its obvious to everyone but unwilling to tell the return to pre-Begin's times?!! The composition of the government is strictly as the compositions from the Yeshuv up to Hamaapakh (the evolution, not revolution which is at the corner should politics stay the same!)th late 70'sunder the Begin government who took much care about building a government that reflect the elements of a Nation in Building process. What we see here is complete alienation of great percentage of Israel citizens that are being spoken for and interests and hopes of whom are ignored. Do not tell me that among the MKs, people of other elements of the population are incapable of filling in serious posts. Perez is just a pawn short of a symbol. Pity for Israel that human resources are put aside for plain lack of vision and understanding about Nation building and managing the potential of those who have a lot to offer to that aim. Netanyahu, unlike his late father, is complete American product who believe in exceptionalism of some citizens and not of other. That is the good reason the guy cannot get along with a Black American President, as Netanyahu is clamsy to understand what make other cultures tick.
5. martin indky bashes israel at a bar
mislon   (05.17.14)
some paper reported indyk bashed israel at a bar in washington in a one sided rant which I believe despite denials from the white house or state. The piece of garbage and that he is has only harmed israel yet intimidates bibi. Sissi can tell kerry and indky to go to hell but bibi runs over saying don't blame us please. It is still the case that we have been damaged from years of subjugation and the genes of submissiveness are alive and well. Submissiveness also takes the form of asskissing which US jewish advisors like indyk, ross, kurtzer do in spades. Israel will have to distance itself somewhat since 99% of what US advocates is dangerous to its security and not in its best interests. Two peopl should stay the hell away from Israel-John kerry and martin indyk, both empty windbags with zero accomplishments right across the globe.
