Has Bennett done anything positive for his constituents and party? He allowed Lapid to get away with cutting of children budget. He allowed Lapid to get away with anti-Jewish gay marriage. He allowed Lapid to get away with public transportation on Shabbat. He allowed expulsions of Jews from Judea and Samaria. It seems that Bennett is as corrupt and evil like his ally Lapid whose only concern is for haredim to join the military.

Baloney! What future of our children if you're out to destroy Judaism by joining the Jewish evil enemy Lapid in getting rid of yeshivos and forcing haredim to secularize? You're a rasha like Lapid and hope you'll soon fall together with him.

Sorry about that--autofill wrote 29--don't even know if there will be 29 talkbacks. Right now there are 2!

Time and time again, Israeli politicians behave in accordance with the philosopher Thomas Hobbes' dictum - "Dog eat Dog". Trouble is that they never finish the meal.

Lapid and Yesh Atid are good Israelis with the intention of saving Israel as a Jewish democracy. Far too many loonies seem determined to destroy Israel by isolating us economically, destroying the IDF and keeping on to areas that will soon "give" us an Arab majority. Fortunately Lapid and others understand that the Tanakh is an important religious guide, but not a blueprint for politics in today's world. Israel was founded by secular democratic Jews, Israel won all its wars thanks to secular democratic Jews and Israel will survive thanks to secular democratic Jews. The religious right never did a thing for Israel.

Just a word of advice...Your naysayers are leading you straight to hell (One-State disaster). Listen to your true leaders who lead you to the path of partnering a Palestinian state with 1967 borders and EJ as its Capital. That's right, don't occupy us, partner us. We are tired of perpetual war and stand to benefit the most from an agreement. However, we will not agree to any agreement, the parameters are well known since 2000, and the passage of time has not, and will not, alter the minimum acceptable terms from a Palestinian perspective.

You know as well as anybody that religious Zionists are as much part of the Israeli's fabric as the secular democratic Jews, so please stop spreading loshon hara. The survival of Israel and the Jews needs more than just democracy (political systems come and go), Judaism survives because of the faith.

I see criticism of Nafatli Bennett and his party failing to prevent cutting children's budget and other things. I will not argue these things are unimportant. The Americans are not exerting immoral pressure on Israel for things like gay marriage and children's budget. Not even the Sabbath. The Americans are pressuring Israel to give up our precious land, to give up our beautiful Jewish communities, thereby leaving Israel in a perilous and a dangerous strategic situation. At this juncture in our history, there is nothing more important than Israel's territorial integrity. Habayit Hayehudi and Bennett are on the front lines fighting for our land.

This guys recall me Chaim Mordechai Rumkowski and his apeech Give Me Your Children.

Firslty I understand Bennet did his bit in the army as a religious right member. Having said that he is now staking out his position as leader of the ultra extreme right. He is infact copying Lieberman but with a Kippa. As he matures he will realise that his current stance is not that of a leader and will moderate. Its a shame Israeli politicians cant be more mature when in their late 30s' or early 40s' as in other democracies

Liberman is a veteran do nothing and Bennet is simply a rookie. Liberman will be around a lot longer to carry out his nothing policies where bennet will only survive politically in a limited capacity. We really do need leadership that considers Israel first, last and always, rather than a made up legacy....

Jewish Home and Bennett are in no way fighting for our land. Quite the opposite, they are undermining it. Regardless of what the loonies on the extreme right might thing, Israel either have to withdraw from some of the territories or give ALL people living there citizenship. The world does not accept the occupation anymore, and the world will definitely not accept any ethnic cleansing. And guess what, Israel exist in this world, not on Mars or Jupiter. I know the extreme right wants to ignore the rest of the world, which of course also is an option and will see Israel be the new North Korea. So faced with a prosperous Jewish Israel without the West Bank or an Israel with the West Bank but either impoverished or with an Arab majority, I might prefer the prosperous Jewish Israel. As do most Israelis.

Do you believe Israel giving up the West Bank (Judea and Samaria) will bring an end to the conflict?

Israel should not be divided, not even with the Help of Friends. The Divider of the Promised Land, the Holy Land of HASHEM, and His City, will feed themselved with Shame, when HASHEM intervienes. Its foretold and implied in HIS Word, but woe to the Perperetrators. Arn.Sweden.

The Nazis liked to say that even if Jews had a country, they would soon sell it for money. Israel's lunatic leftists work to make the Nazis right. This idiocy about a "prosperous Israel without Judea ans Samaria" would make Nazis gleeful. Judea and Samaria have belonged to Jews for 4,000 years and make Israel viable.

About Lieberman. Lieberman was and is a close ally to Netanyahou. The latter kept his ministerial seat warm when he was in trouble with the state prosecutor. After his acquittal - it's my opinion - he took on his shoulders the task to prepare us about the coming results of the peace negotiations. He plays the buffer for the government, for Netanyahu,... So, we have to be ready for it (the results). Again, it's my personal opinion.
