1. What does "Israel before all" mean....
DSM ,   USA   (01.17.19)
when he will be working to change the Nation State Law ?
2. 'Israel Before All' contradicts Gantz stance on national law
Steve Benassi ,   Minneapolis USA   (01.18.19)
3. Hope Israelis don't fall for this latest leftist scam
Chaim ,   Israel   (01.17.19)
The only thing "new" Gantz offers is rhetoric. Even the rhetoric is rehashed from earlier Lapid and other campaigns. Gantz is clearly and leftist and a disaster for Israel.

Gantz has deliberately kept his policies in the dark. Except for his many statements he can't live with Israel's Nation State Law. Gantz can't live with Israel being the Jewish Homeland! Pathetic. Hope Israelis don't fall for this latest leftist scam. Israel desperately needs courageous rightist patriotic leadership. The exact OPPOSITE of what Gantz offers. Don't want to have to say "I told you so" about Gantz. Israel, let's wise up. We don't HAVE to let the left fool us yet again!
4. Before truth? Hamas children's balloon? 100K Missiles...
Jesus ,   NYNY   (01.17.19)
by Hezbollah, Hamas rocket fakery? Anything lie to get an advantage even to get elected to lie on a bigger stage?
5. He is just copying Trump.Besides who does Israel put ahead?
Sam ,   Montreal   (01.17.19)
Basically, Gantz seems to be running on people recognizing his name.
6. He must be seen as ‘great threat’ by the Blind Society!
(01.17.19)
7. Whoever "sees" him as a threat must be blind as a bat!
(01.18.19)
8. Dear me, what have we here?
Disillusioned   (01.17.19)
Courted by the left, courted by the right, courted by the centre. I fear they've all been bamboozled.

He entered politics with no platform, no opinions, no plan.

But, typical of the Israeli alpha male, he simply takes it for granted that he's deserving of the top post.

The saddest thing of all is that every single party leader has agreed - with nothing whatsoever to go on - to give up their best candidates to make why for this one-liner wannabe.

Time to call this bluff for what it is. He was flattered so much by the speculation that his ego couldn't stop him from having a go. If he had any real charisma, he'd have been out there in the limelight, but it looks like this is going to be one big, damp, squib.
9. popular until
Larry ,   LA (formerly)   (01.18.19)
Gantz is popular as a person, but once he opens his mouth and makes a political decision, his popularity will most likely fall.

What is it in Israel that must change? he is for what and against what? NO ONE KNOWS....
10. Iba means he knows best even if its bad for us?
(01.18.19)
On the one Hamdan bib does nothing to stop the daily terrorism. On the other hand the generals with 20 years of pretending the enemy is peaceful unlikely to do better.
11. Oh well, in the end someone will hire him to sell cars....
(01.19.19)
12. can he do it?
Larry ,   LA (formerly)   (01.19.19)
he is popular as a good general, but to be a politician is different. To be a good general means getting the troops to follow your order and beat the enemy; to be a good politician means to understand the supporters desires and do for them.

Rabin and Sharon were examples of good generals, but they screwed up as politicians....
