escaping this conclusion.
Too many people, old order crumbling, Islam threatening the whole human race, Russia in its stupidity, playing tough...better to slug it out and may the chips fall ....

bottom line-Israel has to be feared in the middle east. holding hands, making concessions only invites more terror.that is why arabs took olmert and now bibi for a ride. olmert was scared of one drop of blood. and bibi still thinks he is drowning in Egyptian waters with a bullet in him and seems stuck. he takes no preemptive action. and when war comes, it finds him behind a computer screen speechless and paralyzed.

you want less kites and balloon incendiaries-you take out leadership and shoot throwers. eisencott-you are wrong and so is galant.

since when is hanegbi, a pacifist, a spokesman for bibi.

you want Iran out of Syria-quit talking and take action.

bibi is not a mn of action. he is only a man of words. Israel doesn't need him.

it needs bennett.

For what they worth ...

Israel. Neither has can win militarily. All Iran can do, and has done successfully, is to keep Israeli rulers on edge, scare, and insecure. That's good enough for Iran.
