In praise of Lieberman
Op-ed: Why are we so upset by Lieberman? There's nothing wrong with his words, messages
Can we please stop being scared of Foreign Minister Avigdor Lieberman? Can we ease the panic?
Is it indeed so terrible for the world to hear that our foreign minister does not believe that we can secure a peace agreement with the Palestinians in the coming years? Is such view so ridiculous and unreasonable?
Winning Strategy

Op-ed: We must admit that foreign minister’s strategy working, political clout keeps growing
Moreover, doesn't the above view represent a large majority of Israelis, as well as a large majority of Israeli defense officials?
And here are some more questions to consider: Does the criticism leveled by Foreign Minister Lieberman at European foreign ministers, as well as his comments about Europe's hypocrisy in respect to the Citizenship Act amendment, actually causes damage to Israel?
Here is another possibility: Perhaps it is a good thing that such senior minister presents this view to the world? Maybe his messages are not so delusional as some claim, and the time has come to have a senior official who fears nothing and simply utters these words?
And the final, ultimate question: Isn't this the essence of democracy? That is, seeing a man who because of his personality elicited so much support and won so many Knesset seats (Yisrael Beiteinu, more than any other party, including Shas, is about showing one's trust in one man, Lieberman) expressing his views and opinions.
