1. Barak
Lynn ,   Knoxville   (10.06.12)
This would-be, political has-been should have never been considered, much less appointed to the DM job. Now, Net should send Barak to the "political showers" and end his political career, relegating it to the dust bin of Israel political history. Barak is worthless and useless.
2. Barak took home beer from the trip
Tambour ,   eilat   (10.06.12)
3. hmmm like I said, the guy is FRUSTRATED. Poor Barak .
Sarah B ,   U.S.A. /Israel   (10.06.12)
A Barak associate said Saturday evening that Netanyahu would not reprimand the defense minister. "No one scolds the defense minister, not even the prime minister," he said. "The defense minister will meet the prime minister at his request. Barak will continue to work for the people of Israel and for the country's security. He will continue to act according to his conscience in Israel and abroad," said the aide
4. Who does Barak think he is? PM?
Citizen ,   Haifa   (10.06.12)
There is too much division in our government! Every body doing what suits their own political agendas and ambitions. That's no way to keep security! Barak should be fired.
5. Israel is being threatened from all fronts
A ,   Belgium   (10.06.12)
and DefenseLESS Minister "Creampuff" Barak is in America....doing nothing. Bibi, please, ask Lieberman who he would recommend for DF, and get rid of the ridiculous clown Barak! I have children in Israel.
6. The new old historical meeting of tthe week
aide ,   Israel   (10.06.12)
Tonight they meet to decide when they will meet to decide when
7. bad doggie, bad doggie
(10.06.12)
8. Problem is Barak thinks he's PM
Rachel ,   US   (10.06.12)
Until Bibi lets him know who is the boss, his treacherous behavior will continue.
9. If Bibi had cajones he would fire Barak
Rachel ,   US   (10.06.12)
10. Don't reprimand Barak. Fire him immediately.
Chaim ,   Israel   (10.07.12)
11. I ran for PM, lost for PM, but maaybe I'll just ACT like PM
(10.07.12)
Say WHAT?!? If this happened in the US -- that a subordinate took unauthorized actions of any significant potential political consequence: *BOOT* out on his fanny.
12. Netanyahu/Barack
LT COL HOWARD ,   WASHINGTON DC   (10.07.12)
As an experienced White House insider I've seen this scenario many times. The aides and anonymous people (who are described as “being close”) make inflammatory statements and throw gasoline on the fire, attempting to ignite a conflict between their superiors . Prime Minister Netanyahu and Minister Barack: Israel needs you to work closely together to ensure its survival. Nothing else matters. Not ego.
13. Poor Leadership
Concerned American ,   USA   (10.07.12)
Barak''s behavior is no different than any of the other cabinet ministers. When Lieberman runs his mouth around the world, Bibi says Liebermans view is not that of the goverrment of Israel. Barak saw that example as Bibi's spineless act and poor leadership, so Barak did the same thing as Lieberman, do something behind his back. When leaders/managers cannot lead with one policy, it is very commmon within the organization for everyone to go his or her way.
14. BIBI VERSUS LIEBERMAN
NEFEN ,   Israel   (10.07.12)
I am not a Barak supporter but it is strange that Bibi choses to repriment him calling a well publicised meeting, while in 2010 he has even not blicked an eye when Liebermant took the stand in front of at the General UN Assembly to speack in the name of Israel and in fact prezented his party political platform. Words and show are BIBI's power. Good for him that he is belived!
15. "seeing eye to eye"
Michael ,   Haifa   (10.07.12)
Like Molotov-Ribbentrop pact
16. Barak "conscience" and Barak "friends":
Keren ,   IL-BR   (10.07.12)

Lieberman has 15 seats, Barak 5 and probably none after next election. He is a loser.
