First of all, Ynet, kol hakavod, yasher koakh and mazal tov on a job excellently done. Sure enough, there are liars and crooks all across the Israeli political scene but we gotta start somewhere. Well done! As far as the usual suspects, who wouldn't blink an eye before castigating al-takiya, which Muslims supposedly follow, are here seeking to excuse Tartarina because they subscribe to her racist views. Pathetic. Keep up the great work, YNet!

This shrew is a real stain on Israeli politics. (Like it needed another one) Her defenders are antithetical to Jewish law and a real disgrace. Lieberman has lost credibility supporting this liar (one wonders if he has any motive beyond politics) Clean house and lose the drama queen.

Good job!

Abu Mazen has a Ph.D and two masters from well-respected schools but never boasts about that. Why the people in Israel even lie and fabricate such lies about their university degrees. I feel that our leaders are more honest that yours.

Go back to democracy school. The media simply did their job in this case. Tartman did herself in by repeatedly lying and misrepresenting herself. If somebody came to me for a job and said they had a masters degree but really didn't - then they would NOT get the job. It's that simple. She's a liar. From what friends and neighbors are saying, you two are in the minority and most of the right wing are united with the rest of the country in thinking that we want better MKs who are more honest. The object is to raise the standard of quality of the people who represent us, not lower it. Yes, in general politicians are liars. However, I want a better liar than Tartman.

And illiterate, too. I'll remember that when I drive in the Negev, where incidentally a lot of the bad drivers are Beduins. Persian Cat, why don't you go get some treatment for hair-balls? It may make you feel better. Idiot.

But, she did misrepresent herself. And there is enough dishonesty in politicians. Our government doesn't need to have anyone who can't be truthful. Enough already with the liars and the crooks.

People who live in glass houses shouldn't throw stones! Mr. Abu Mazen's Phd is well known to be a denial of the Holocaust. A bogus Phd is not something to be proud of!

Yes, the media is quick on the witchhunt, but it doesn't matter that much. Right wing voters should vote for any other right wing party, just not them. Lieberman comes off as a little dictator, and wasn't wise enough to send this lady back to where she came from. (By the way, left wing voters should stop voting for Labor, but that's an entirely different story.)

Mahmoud Abbas is a well known holocaust denier. This far about his "studies".

Hadar- just because you take a few courses doesn't mean a thing it is the diploma that states that you not onle learned all the maertial but did well enough to graduate. Would you go to a person claiming to be a Doctor because he just took a few classes at a medical school but did not get a diploma, or use a lawyer who took a few classes at a law school but has no diploma? I think not! Tartman lied about her academic qualifications for the job plain and simple!

to have a system that calls politicians to high moral and ethical standards. In this regard Israel, is clearly a light in the middle-east. A society like this that seeks to improve itself, will one day "lead the pack" (if it isn't already). Kol hakavod!!

ok, now get olmert, peretz and the other schmucks that promote the concept that "government = corruption" then next is the religious people who believe that "government = corruption + money"

THANK GOD
