1. Security and Social Gap
Zechariah   (10.21.14)
Can a Palestinian autonomy be non belligerent .Can a autonomy be accepted as a State . Hamas in Gaza is a slug out .Every few months or Years .Israelis and Palestinians know the Die is cast .War and Truces .Better living conditions. .The Galus and Arab oil Rich States have to contribute .But first Ebola is the Priority and the Islamic Sunni Califate and the Islamic Shia Califate.Mayhem and Armageddon can be Prevented .
2. The King of Moral Turpitude
ggg ,   Tel Aviv   (10.21.14)
Not a scrupulous cell in his body. He'll sell his soul to the devil to stay in power: the sign of a narcissist and dictator. One law MUST be effected for the health of any nation: no more than two terms, or they develop the power sickness. Two thirds of this country do NOT want the haredim back to turn it into another Iran. He couldn't care less for democracy and the will of the people, only for his own survival. But he may, this time, be underestimating the mood of the people (notwithstanding the extreme rightists who haunt the English Ynet pages). About 98% of the readers of the Hebrew version of this article are all for giving the man the boot he has long deserved.
3. Bibi
C.K.   (10.21.14)
With all his faults, he's the only one with true leadership qualifications. Lieberman is not bad but not as qualified as Bibi. Bennett is a naive fella and a weakling who'd need Lapid to advise him on every move. A vote for Bennett is a vote for Yesh Atid. Feiglin is a nice guy but doesn't have leadership qualifications at all. Livni, Herzog and other leftists are out of the question, so that leaves us with Bibi.
4. Bibi reelected with the Haredim
Raptor   (10.21.14)
would be a death sentence for Israel. Bibi will be digging the grave and the Haredim will be at hand to say Kaddish.
5. elections might be a good idea
CJK   (10.21.14)
if it is your last card to play, then it might be your best card overall.
6. Bibi is the worst choice
Josh ,   Jerusalem   (10.21.14)
Bibi is status quo. Bibi has done nothing for Israel except keep everything exactly the same. Same low wages, same high food prices, same housing shortages, same defeat at the hands of Hamas, same temple mount concessions. I think its time Israel votes in Feiglin or Bennet to bring some change to Israel, for better and perhaps for worse. But anything is better than Bibi's staus quo which is slowly killing us.
7. #2 like him or hate him
(10.21.14)
Netanyahu is the most honest Israeli PM since Shamir, and certainly has no moral turpitude. No other leader underwent greater journalistic, legal, police and international scrutiny (except maybe Lieberman), and no one has found anything he did wrong. The few charges against him were fabricated, do you remember Ayala Hasson's "concrete case"? In contrast we have: Rabin / Peres (bribing Shas, the Goldfarb affair, stealing gifts from PM office), Sharon (Greek Island), Barak (amutot) and Olmert (not enough space here). As for your hatred of Haredim: you would be far more convincing if instead of condemning Netanyahu you condemned Rabin, Peres, Olmert and Barak who paid the Haredim far more than Netanyahu to support their Leftist policies.
8. Moshe Feiglin for Israeli P.M.
Chaim ,   Israel   (10.21.14)
Bibi's heart is in the right place. However, he doesn't have the guts to say "NO" to Israel's foes and false friends. Bibi is the only national leaders who fears Obama. Virtually all the other leaders think Obama is a joke. On top of it all; Bibi throws away election after election for Likud. Moshe Feiglin should be the next Israeli P.M. So far, Feiglin has proven that he will pay whatever price is necessary to do what is right for Israel. Feiglin has a definitely plan to end the deadly Two State Final Solution and assert Israeli sovereignty over all of our sole tiny Homeland. Feiglin is also devoted to free enterprise, which is historically the best system by far. Feiglin is also devoted to maximum personal freedom.
