A mofaz now translates as someone who does something that contradicts what they say they will do and does it for their own good, Ie: katsav did a mofaz on his secretary, or olmert did a mofaz on the holyland, project, .... is ariel sharon still hearing this?

When the lefties are fuming, this new centre-right coalition must be a masterstroke.

You are all behaving like a bunch of spoiled babies, and you all think you are our representatives. Cha'Bibi, we lost faith in you, a long time ago. We work like dogs, You take & waste our money, We live like paupers, You live like kings, off the fat of the land, that you want to give away. I do not understand why Kadima would join Likud. Kadima wants give up God's Land, while Likud is making it look like they want to give up God's Land. Meretz leader...YOU ARE ALL ROTTEN APPLES, that are All killing us, with YOUR Stupidity.

Oh those poor leftists. They have never done anything except look out for the best interest of the country. Is this deal worse than the Mitsubishi sale to secure Oslo II? Is it worse than Sharon ignore the Likud referendunm on the Gaza expolsion? And Mr. Ben Eliezer (the great friend of Mr. Mubarek), you sold you soul so long ago, how dare you attack anyone else.

If kadima in government will fail over the next 15 months to move netanyahu to restart peace process,tal law,change in economical poltics etc, kadima will sink into the blackhole of history.iif they succeed to bring about major changes and stop netanyahus plans on iran netanyahu will crush. Them.in either way mofaz already finished his historical role before it began.

You can't say Labor doesn't have a sense of humor. Labor party mentor Peres invented the Stinking Deal with Shas. Later, Rabin and Peres drowned Shas with money, and when Shas became too greedy, they bought MK Goldfarb for cash. When Sharon and his gang (including Mofaz) betrayed the Likud to ethnically cleanse Gush Katif, the Labor party cheered. Then the Labor party happily served with the corrupt Sharon, Hanegbi, Olmert and Hirshzon. Now they get get a taste of their own medicine and they cry? Pathetic,

Can Bibi sue you for that ? (End).

The name of the game those people play is wheeling and dealing with devils like themselves. They live well for it, so they should stop complaining. The Labor Party goes way back at this game. The best illustration of it was the conflict between Rabin and Peres, a conflict which spanned many years and many governments in Israel. I don't doubt Mofaz and Netanyahu are adept at playing this game also. But hey, they have done well this time by not letting the government fall. An election once every four years is enough. If governments in Israel were locked in to this kind of duration, there would be less playing done with the devil.

Israeli politicians have succeeded in proving that the "oldest profession" is respectable.

history will prove wrong!

Livni was the "male" dominant figure. She wnats to be the boss and lead. Just like Derry. Mofaz however is the "female". He knows when the right time is for leadership. He "she" is smarter.

Coming from Labor, these complaints are downright comedic. Labor's Oslo Disaster violated the wishes of 90% of Israel. Barak kept surrendering out land even as virtually his entire government deserted him. There is no limit to the hypocrisy of Labor. Bibi is simply serving the term for which he was elected.

Less than a week ago Labor all the polls were showing A Likud win with Labor coming second and Kadima going into meltdown. Then Shelly Y stepped forward and announced she would be willing to join a coalition with Bibi. Just a few days later the elections are not going to take place for another year, Mofaz is deputy PM and its starting to look like Labor are the one going into meltdown with Bibi having a coalition of 94 and Labor & their ally Meretz sitting in opposition with just 16 seats between them with the other 10 going to the arabs. As the new kids on the block and last years protests still fresh in peoples minds Shelly Y & Zehavia Galon were relying on early elections. Now not are they having to wait a year but Mofaz is being given a chance to make himself look electable to try steal seats from them when the election does come. Now all they can do is act like little children bickering and calling Mofaz names
