Wiesel told Yediot, the newspaper - Hmm... Because you are not from Washington lol

without giving back to Israel as a President.

but Elie Weasel thinks he is too old for a cushy job like President of Israel who just has to show up and say a few words now and then and meet dignitaries. Moses' job was not a cushy one, but he obeyed Elohim and for forty years was the leader of the Hebrews. Maybe Elie Weasel is turning down Elohim's plan for his life, like Albert Einstein did long ago when he did not want to lead Israel in the beginning of the State. Both are takers not givers.

It's one thing to bring a renowned figure like Stanley Fisher who not only brings something to the table but actually lived in Israel for a while. It's another to bring in an outsider like Wiesel. If Netanyahu wanted to support someone besides Rivlin, why didn't he push for Sharansky who, as a refusenik who has cast his lot with Israel, has a moral authority few can challenge. Rather than turn again to a party operative or someone tied to one camp or another (as Peres was tied to Labor), let's do as it was done long ago. Israel's first president was Chaim Weizmann - a scientist. Given the current crew, Israel could do worse than electing Shechtman, the Nobel-winner from the Technion who's done more than most to promote education and entrepreneurship in Israel.

Bibi was so determined to stop a true Likud Constitutional loyalist that he invited an American to be Israel's president!! This is more evidence Likud must replace Bibi.

because you are one of the very few with credibility, brain, and objective. You are just a respectable giant. G bless you.

The truth comes out: after years of Israelis suffering from the hated Peres, Netanyahu was doing his best to find a good, non-political candidate who would be supported by everyone. Will the talking heads and extreme Left pundits who attacked Netanyahu about his position on the presidency now apologize?

A few years ago Wiesel was asked to light a torch on Israeli Independence Day...he refused. Clearly Wiesel has no interest in Israel...if he can't be bothered to light a torch for Independence day...why would he want to be bothered with being President of Israel?

Codes has saved many lives for Israel. He is personally righteous and has a beard like Elohim and should be the Israeli President.

to feel stronger again.
