the jewish state needs a strong leader.

racist, extremist, homophobic, corrupt and dishonest. Of course not to mention the added bonus of the musical talent of Naftali Bennet.

Make it a strong, proud, patriotic government this time, Bibi. Israel has spoken and very LOUDLY!

#2. The right has been infallibly correct on all major issues including Oslo, Disengagement, Arafat, the Golan, freeing terrorists and everything else. The results of the recent election are yet another piece of evidence to prove the rule. My suggested motto for the Israeli left: "Always smug and always wrong".

Is Herzog planning on being with Evil in opposition?

religious parties Netanyahu would not be able to form a govt. With the Evil out, religious parties will not have to suffer. There will be no forcing of drafting to secularize religious boys and yeshivos will get money like those greedy professors and corrupt universities.

What is that sound I hear coming from the south ? It's Obama sobbing while reading this news.

Herzog and Ynet really blew it on these elections. The people hear both sides and understood that we need security and we can not trust the current Arab leadership to make a deal and keep their word. Herzog, and Ynet included, seemed to miss the tempo of the people. We Israelis do not live with our head in the clouds. We have seen wars and the last war was well done by Bibi. We have seen great prosperity over the past few years and this was done under Bibi. We have seen great freedom for individual expression in the past few years and we can not criticize Bibi at all. So what we can not understand is how the media, in reality Ynet, was so opposed to Bibi and managed to fall so far from the mark.
