Yaalon is a very clever and cute Mongoose. The Mongoose strikes when the Cobra least expects. The mongoose has built in immunity to the Cobra's venom. The mongoose for as cute and cuddly as he seems like Yaalon is deadly and extremely effective as a cobra killer. One of the few Yekes i actually like... Go Yiddish Mongoose..

I find it amazing that the people of Egypt have risen up against political Islam, and that this push back has spread to Turkey. It is nice to see moderate Muslims and intellectuals finally find their voice. As for the Sunni-Shiite conflict raging in the Arab world...that is no less fascinating. Guess it's nature's way of thinning the herd. Most interesting is that Saudi Arabia is staking out it's own Mideast foriegn policy in conflict with the OBAMA's insane plan to try to manipulate political Islam, which is really a Trojan hourse for turning a country into a Taliban state. How will this affect Israel? If this weakens Israel's enemies then it is good for Israel.

so one another israel is doomed...

seems like the "Yiddish Mongoose" is up against a dung heap of maggots.

Israel and Jewish Nation in general has kept its identity through the ages through worshiping G-d. It is unique and different to other religions such as Islam or Christianity. It is a race, culture, nation all in one, It is an ethnic group who built the Kingdoms of Israel, Judea and Samaria. Anybody can claim they are a Muslim or Christian. There are always exceptions to rules and this is a prime example. Either one believes in G-d or Force, whichever you look at it Israel is the homeland of the Jewish Nation with Jerusalem as its undivided eternal capital. Of course Jewish Laws must be observed, however, Rabbis Laws must be subject to secular laws and be allowed to challenged in courts, otherwise Israel will end up like Islamic Republic Of Iran.

Sunnis killing Shiites- how boring. No wait... it was those pesky Zionists ! Well, now we have a heinous crime, a massacre, crimes against humanity. Let's have some threats of revenge!

Islam upside down.His machinations have reignited Sunni Shia hatred and brought the Battle of Karballah to the 21st century All the while tryng to bring peace to peaceful Israel with the Baked Beans Maven The whole M E situation is just like the Balkans before the First World War

there is no such thing as "political judaism." the state of Israel is not based on halakha but on civil and common law.

israel has red lines. do not cross those red lines. other than that, you can murder each other in peace.

Deep inside, Yaalon almost certainly knows that Israel must permanently retake ALL our abandoned lands. However, he doesn't yet feel comfortable speaking such obvious truths in public. We, the vast patriotic, righteous majority, must demonstrate that we KNOW this and that we will strongly support all politicians who tell the truth and act on it.
