2. Well done Bibi

Why settle for a bad deal that puts a terror state on
biblical Jewish land in the heart of Israel
Obama needed to fix the situation in Gaza before
expecting Israel to compromise
Kerry was the worlds worst negotiator - just look at the
Iran deal
3. it is the way it is

who knows the exact reason for it, but israe has been plagued by fearful and insecure leaders from olmert, livni and ramon, to believe it or not ehud barak, and bibi along with half- a dozen likud ministers hanegbi erdan, katz, elikin and shteinitz.

it is even more difficult with bibi who has covered himself as commando to permit him to take liberties with israelis. so his promises on construction are worthless because he himself has no guts to carry a decison on his own. he has outsourced israeli decisio ns to trump which is hard to take and beneath contempt. you would think bibi with his mindselt would admit, i am weak so i will not run for pm position but something carried him there and it is not to isreels benefit. he cannot undertake major action against hezbollah, hamas and iran as he is paralysed by fear. so it is any surprise that he will reneg his committments.

israel has a long way to go. of course the list of bibi types seems endless-lapiid, herzog, yechaimovitch, peretz and even lieberman to a degree with his kerry conversion.

No one says israel should be foolhardy. But to have leaders who are obviously gutless is dangerous. israelis have to stop voting for bibi and the regular cast of apoliticans. bennett, feiglin, barkat are far superior to bibi herzog and lapid.
4. Just imagine if Bibi went along with Kerry on this 1
MadDad ,   Johannesburg RSA   (02.20.17)
Based on the Iranian deal - the PA would have held out till the end, and then, in order to get the deal done in time for Obama's legacy, he would have forced Bibi to accept:
a. Return of 6 million Arab "refugees" from the diaspora to Tel Aviv including generous compensation.
b. The destruction of all settlements over the green line
c. The de-militarization of Israel
d. A military harbor in Gaza
f. A couple of "billion dollar pallets" for Hamas to re-arm.
