He agreed initially to the truce proposal too quickly. I support Mssrs Lieberman and Bennet,.

3. Bibi is Doing the Right Thing
Ron ,   oc us   (07.17.14)
Accepting the cease fire from Egypt was the right thing to do. Hamas did not accept and they lost political capital in a losing cause. As far as Israel losing deterrence, I don't think so. Hamas took to an unnecessary war, suffered damage, casualties and dislocation. For What? After hamas did not accept the cease fire and continued the war 17,000 people left their homes, the casualties continued to mount and infrastructure was further damaged. Their leadership is underground or abroad and they will have to answer to the people of Gaza if Israel has lost deterrence. I think the answer is no.
4. Israel's existential problems
(07.17.14)
israel has two major existential problems: the terror state of iran and its nuclear weapons program; the entire west and its bigoted portrayal of israel.

Reply to kadmon: The criticism against prime minister Netanyahu is something new? it was there since he was re- elected in 2013 elections, or maybe before? Considering that no political poll or analysis from the israeli media predicted how Yahir Lapid and Yesh Atid could became a political party option in the 2013 campaign contest, when you said that PM Netanyahu make the right decision, the comment is suggesting that even though he is skilled & intelligent, he is not always right?.... Have a good day thanks to ynet
6. Netanyahu's 2nd cease fire
Avi Dobuler ,   Beit El, Israel   (07.17.14)
This article praising Netanyahu for his accepting this 2nd cease fire is a sad commentary on a peaceful people so hungry for peace that it constantly puts on blindfold and deliberately misreads the facts and atmosphere of the Arab Moslem world's sites on destrkying the JudaeoCristian Western world...Israel first. Its not about territory (for peace) but of total long term victory. Speaking with Arsb workers in our community, I can only report that Bibi's hesitancies, failure to level from the air and then clean up terror infrastructure from the ground is clearly and definitely seen as Israeli weakness. Bibi regretfully, is only strong, swift and brutal against Jewish opposition to his policies which are against his party's stated platform upon which he was elected.
7. Respect to Kadmon
(07.17.14)
Kadmon will never vote for Netanyahu. She is one of Netanyahu's fiercest critics, often even mocking his wife. However, when Netanyahu ignores his own voters and acts like a member of the extreme Left Meretz party, Kadmon supports him. Respect to Kadmon for being consistent. No respect for Netanyahu.
8. Netanyahu was right.
Hodaya ,   Jerusalem   (07.17.14)
Great and profound comment! We need cool brains and solidarity now.
9. ...truth when is meant about fashion...
Adler   (07.17.14)
Reply to 7 can be a revolutionary act... Sara Netanyahu knew she wasnt under-dressed neither overdressed in that black dress..
10. Good article.
