arabs fear leiberman and that counts. egypt under sissi has its own problems but he has shown himself to be a good player. however, herzog shows himself to be a gullible moron in exaggerating sissi's ideas of regional peace summit since abbas and haniyeh have not changed their stance one bit. it is they who have to make concessions, not the other way around. herzog is all about withdrawal, hide behind fences and run to obama for help. he is a disgusting pacifist.

Israel voted for a patriotic government. Not a destructive leftist one. Lieberman is acceptable, but Herzog and his horrible far left "Zionist Union" are not.

Like your thinking, Ed and your cool revue of the situation on subject...

Netanyahu the orator and Lieberman the spine straightener were a winning combination. Nothing could be better than Lieberman back in the position of Foreign Minister.Kerry,Hollande and Mogherini will have to learn a new set of rules or retire from the field. THREE CHEERS FOR ISRAEL!!!
