3. A natural & inevitable given this
Cameron   (02.08.19)
Perfectly understandable that Net should wish to emulate and draw upon the savvy, strength, and enormous success of the friend & ally sitting in the Oval Office.

He sees all too clearly whom Fate has favored in the grand and merciless arena of politics.

6. understandable but dangerous choice

it is understandable that Israelis would like to select someone else to be pm than bibi. netanyahu is a master politician, good diplomat, means well but is actually reluctant to undertake major actions. he does not have military confidence and is not a planner. but he did slow down the withdrawal train from Oslo.on the other hand, putin plays him for a sucker.

now there are a number of generals, usually aging generals who advocate withdrawal in whole or in part from the west bank. this occurs all the time. fatigue sets in. the generals always say it will be manageable because the idf can go back into the west bank. they forget that it gets harder and harder to do that.

rabin, barak, olmert considered ceding the golan. where would Israel be now. they were wrong. isis and then hezbollah would be right down on the shores of the kinneret.

for Israelis to be supporting gantz, a general who in plain view did a poor job in the Gaza war, this general wants to cede parts of the west bank unilaterally if necessary to bring hamastan without a doubt to the west of Israel overlooking the coastal plain is suicide, plain and simple.

israelis trusted ariel sharon on the gaza withdrawal because they knew he would go back in a second if gaza launched terror from vacated lands. with gantz, that is the last thing he would do-in other words he would not go back in the west bank.

that Israelis would vote for someone like gantz is an indictment of them plain and simple. it also partially explains why so many Jews died in the past. how the hell can you vote for someone like ganz. you have to be nuts and dzimmis.

gantz is a danger to israei security period. do not vote for him!
7. The April 9th Downfall
Sarah ,   Ashkelon   (02.09.19)
If I were Trump, I would demand the immediate withdrawal of those scandalous propaganda posters. This desperate castaway is willing to drag Trump in his irremediable fall into the abyss. And he has no right to do so, because being Trump the American president who has best behaved with Israel in history, he will continue to benefit Israel with any future minister, even if it were Zandberg.
8. Only children games
R. Shalom ,   Palmachim, Israel   (02.10.19)
The real advertising poster of this campaign would be to see Netanyahu and Lieberman cheerfully embracing Ismail Haniyeh, and not President Trump, the only US president in history who has fulfilled all his electoral promises.

All Hamas kites are beginning to reach their ultimate destination: 9 Smolenskin Street, just on the corner of Balfour Street, Jerusalem.

Cowardice doesn't pay, and the time to pay the price is now, at the balloting boxes.
9. The essentials of the Trump’s style
Gavriel Rechov ,   Swingate, Kent UK   (02.10.19)
Mr. Trump is copied all over the planet, his style, his witticisms and his slogans. His huge legion of imitators copies him everything except one thing: the fulfillment of his promises. That's where Trump, the bold American bald eagle, flies so high that he blinds everyone.

Trump's true style is to promise the impossible before being elected, and then, when the power is obtained, voluntarily and scrupulously fulfill each and every one of the promises.

That's why the fake imitators of Trump only show interesting pictures and cute slogans, and not to discover their cheating game or they don't promise anything, or their promises are fallacious.

An election campaign is a very serious contract with voters based on a program. Trump's loyalty to his contracts will merit a second term in the 2021 elections.
10. The Miracle Worker
Y. Kohen ,   Ariel   (02.10.19)
For President Trump, doing things that are impossible for the vast majority of European rulers is part of his daily work in the White House. He also performs miracles, but they cost him one more day.

To this second class of wonders belong the recognition of Jerusalem as the capital of Israel, the peace with North Korea and the border wall with Mexico.

No wonder that some want to take pictures with him.
11. Trump should seek changing the 2-term rule into at least 4!!
