YOU! YOU! 'Are not being truthful.' Livni. If you are Jewish, you should know that no one has an monopoly on Judaism. There has always been, ONE GOD-ONE TORAH. It is sad that you think that Torah observant Jews, who do not agree with your Water-down Judaism or no Judaism, is called monopoly. You have the monopoly opinion of true weakness. STAND UP for once as a TRUE JEW, and you will see the difference. You think because most Jews have become Secular, you are the Majority. God does not need, numbers. HE wants HIS children to live the way we are to live.

Tzipi has such a stellar record that it is amazing that her words aren't heeded by this government. The problem is that only Tzipi Livini doesn't see that as a hilarious bit of sarcasm.

It is good to see that Livni can be a psychiatrist and diagnose people with schizophrenia. She has already proven she is incapable of much else. She betrayed Likud voters for a ministers seat. As Foreign Minister she made sure that Hezbolla could rearm after Israel's retreat in Lebanon II war and that Israel could do nothing. And thanks to Cast Lead, she is one of the people suspected of being an international war criminal by Goldstone.

She claims that she wants peace but in the meantime, she wants to create more war by creating a terror state.

The major cognitive disconnect, can be summed up thusly: How can a religiously and ethnically-based government govern both themselves and a minority population? Answer: Unless they resolve to buttress the primacy of a secular government giving equal rights and responsibilities to all citizens regardlesss of race, religion, ethnicity or gender, they will be consigned, and rightly so, to the 'dustbin of history'.

When one looks at Livni's political career, all one sees is a long series of disasters which have brought, and continue to bring Israel enormous suffering. Livni was a major supporter of Disengagement, which caused our last Gaza War and brought us tens of thousands of rockets. The rockets still come. Livni arranged the cease fire with Hizbullah, which cost Israel victory in Lebanon. To this day, she is proud of this debacle. Livni disgraced us at Annapolis by entering the servants' door and begging Arab leaders to shake her hand. Livni was plotting to divide Jerusalem till she lost the election. Has Livni ever done anything good for Israel?

She sounds as if she may need to be sent to an asylum herself.

To Chaim: you are exactly right and to the point. Its about deeds, not words. I have followed her politics for years..she should retire to Florida and join Sarah Silvermans people. I saw her interviewed on US PBS TV. She actually contradicted her boss at the time ( Olmert) to the interviewers delight. She has all knds of criticisms..most of them inane, but no real solutions.What does she want your govt to do anyway? Israel has few friends and no leverage. It cannot go to China/Russia/Brazil..like the Pales. It doesnt have 22 Jewish nations backing it. Its lifting of the 10mo freeze makes world headlines..when everyone knows that is NOT the root cause of the conflict. The UN created a Jewish state..and Arafat to Abbas know it. Why the controversy? They have their firm red lines..its easy, the 67 borders and right of return. Israel can go to hell from their perspective. Israel must compromise..they stand firm on Holocaust borders. Livni is a nuisance and irrelevant. But she has a following and is beloved abroad. Israel needs new and fresh leadershp. As far as its Jewishness...every Jew is a Jew..ultra to secular..its only the ceremony that differs. Iranian nukes wont discriminate folks nor do Kassams, or Scuds.Dead Jews are dead Jews. The Final Jihad is meant for every Israeli citizen, observant or not.

"How can a religiously and ethnically-based government govern both themselves and a minority population?" - precisely describes Iran as does the rest of your post. Incidentally describes most of the Middle East too.... In fact the ONLY place it doesn't describe is Israel.

In all seriousness though the Haredi parties are not exactly the best for governance. Then again who these days is.

I have been regarded as a mental case all my life I know how it is the world shuts you out harrasses you torments you traumatizes you Netanyahu is doing the best he can Liebierman as well give them credit for trying at least Livni believes she is as sane as Moses good them did Moses make peace with Syria the Palisteinians no differences will always exist that is life Europeans want us to live by their own European standards this is not possible try to live with that Livni RIGHT ??? Thank You... M. S.
