1. We need leaders who face obvious truth about "Palestinians"
Chaim ,   Israel   (03.14.18)
Every "Palestinian" covenant proudly announces their commitment to destroy Israel. "Palestinians" constantly honor Jew murderers and pay their families huge amounts of money. Every day "Palestinians" shout their desire to destroy Israel to the heavens in every conceivable way. Yet for some crazy reason, most Israeli leaders have a big problem facing the obvious truth about "Palestinians".

Year after year, decade after decade, Israeli leaders pretend "Palestinians" are misunderstood neighbors. Meanwhile, "Palestinians" are maiming, murdering, demonizing, boycotting and harming us every possible way they can. There is absolutely no doubt that "Palestinians" would mass murder us all, in a heartbeat, if they could. Israel needs leaders with the courage to end this absurdity and deal with "Palestinians" as the defeated mortal foes they are.

that is why Israel military no. 1 in ME bar none. hope this spirit will continue. a must if Israel is to survive and prosper. unlike evil regimes in area there is good reason for Israelis to be proud of its citizens who defend their country. perhaps one day other peoples in the area will come to their senses and opt for peace. not optimistic.
8. DEAR GENERAL ESHEL:
THEODORE HURTSEL ,   SAFED HONESTY   (03.14.18)
Israel has solid leadership , no need for you to be concerned.
9. IT DOES NOT TAKE A GENIUS
ALBERTO EINSTEIN ,   SAFED GENIUS   (03.14.18)
People need to be more realistic ,less idealistic. Stop expecting leaders to walk on water and to be whiter than white ,then the problem will be solved.Only G-D is perfection ,his creation is imperfect and humans are not designed to be perfect. Netanyahu is not perfect ,of course not, but he is the best Israel has at this point of time. He has not brought us war ,he has not given away half the country and there is food in the supermarkets and goods in the shop so STOP MOANING. On another note , Bibi could look after the poor and disadvantaged in israeli society better, more money for those living on disability benefits for example.
10. WHAT ISRAEL NEEDS
DONALD DUMP ,   SAFED WASHINGTON   (03.14.18)
Is to arm the teachers.
11. leadership
tiki ,   belgium   (03.14.18)
Netanyahu might be (only) accused of a lot of things........but not of a lack of leadership.

The man has been leading Israel through heavy storms & international muddy waters and building it to the successful, strong, innovative & relevant country it is today while taking personal abuse & humiliation by foreign leaders with pride.

16. What Israel needs is leadership
Esther Toth ,   Vác   (12.20.18)
I have interpreted this text to Hungarian, just changing „leader” to „teacher”. (I am a Hungarian physics teacher.) And this is my credo as a teacher, but you formulated it in a much deeper way as me. Thank you!
