If Netanyahu is reelected, it will be clear that the Iranian nuclear infrastructure, especially the heavy water capabilities, will not be left intact, functional and unmolested. Netanyahu will never allow the apocalyptic mullahs to obtain nuclear weapons. Hence the international Obama Left will do everything it can to assure that the Center/Left coalition wins this election. Interesting and dangerous times ahead.

“Michael Pu’ah, a close confidante of Moshe Feiglin and a member of the Likud Elections Committee, railed against the election process in the Likud, after it emerged that Feiglin would not achieve a realistic position - among the top 20 - on the Likud list.

“Pu’ah attributed Feiglin’s exclusion from the list to the direct intervention of Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu, who, he told Arutz Sheva, has long been looking for ways to dump Feiglin.

“’Instead of a ‘celebration of democracy,’ as Netanyahu is portraying it, this was a farce of democracy,’ said Pu’ah. ‘I walked out of the vote counting in the middle of the night, after it emerged that Netanyahu had fired observers from the vote count process,’ with no one supervising the voting process.”

Last week, talk was Netanyahu would not be eligible for another run. I guess that was quickly fixed to everyone’s satisfaction. Good.
