Likud data shows for first time majority of Israelis don't believe Netanyahu will form coalition
The Jerusalem Post ^ | Monday, March 16, 2015 | Gil Hoffman

PM continued his recent warnings to his supporters, saying that the only way to bridge the gap between the Likud and the Zionist Union was for the entire nationalist camp to vote Likud.

An internal Likud poll has shown for the first time that a majority of Israelis do not believe that Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu will form the next government, a Likud source said Monday.

Until recently, more than 60 percent of Israelis thought that Netanyahu would form the coalition after Tuesday's election.

On March 9, the Likud's data showed that 62.3% thought that Netanyahu would form the coalition and 19.9 % thought that Zionist Union leaders Issac Herzog and Tzipi Livni would form the government. On Monday, for the first time, the number believing Netanyahu would form the government fell to 49.6 %, while 30.4 % thought Herzog would form the coalition. It marked the first time since the election campaign began that the number dipped below 50 percent. The polls are taken by McLaughlin and associates, the American Republican strategist working for the Netanyahu campaign.

Netanyahu continued his recent warnings to his supporters on Monday, saying that the only way to bridge the gap between the Likud and the Zionist Union was for the entire nationalist camp to vote Likud.

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is STRONGLY URGING the ENTIRE NATIONALIST CAMP (all of those voters on the right) to vote for Likud and Netanyahu and NOT any other party on the right!

I will consider a Netanyahu loss a end times sign.

You’ll notice that Netanyahu has been using a Republican strategist firm ...

McLaughlin and Associates

He may be using others, too, but I haven’t seen it reported.

Actually, the very formation of Israel itself, in 1948, is the best End Times sign that one can have ... :-) ...

If Netanyahu wanted to unite the entire nationalist camp, he should have formed a government with them instead of with leftists like Lapid and Livni.

Don’t know why more hasn’t been broadcast about Obama’s involvement.

The Senate is investigating OneVoice Movement, a Washington based group, that has received $350,000 in recent State
Department grants.

A subsidiary of OneVoice is the Israel based ‘Victory 15’-guided by top operatives of Obama’s White House and seeks to replace Netanyuha.

In January, Jeremy Bird - Obama’s former deputy national campaign director in 2008 and campaign director in 2012 - went to Israel to help direct Victory15. He took other operatives along to help.

Obama’s opposition to him fits into that.

” Don’t know why more hasn’t been broadcast about Obama’s involvement.”

Anything negative about Obama never makes it to the media.
The bad thing is the R’s in the House & Senate DO know, and are quiet.

Netanyahu spoke truth to power. Like the old Hebrew prophets he has been ridiculed, scorned and rejected. The people dearly love their comforts and craven Obama idols. History repeats because human nature is perennial. Once again there will be wailing and gnashing of teeth.

Netanyahu’s Likud will very likely add four more seats.

Obama will respond by trying to punish all of Israel, instead of just Netanyahu.

I agree. The hand wringing ignores why Netanyahu called for an election. He wants more freedom to do what is necessary for Israel. It was a calculated risk, and knows full well the future existence of the State is in the balance.

Yes, a number of days ago, but it needs to be mentioned more as I don’t think most people know about it. Thanks ST.

I don’t believe any poll just before an election; they are often imho faked in order to try and stampede the electorate one way or the other.

“Voters present their national identification cards at their assigned polling stations”

That’s a good start.

[Anything negative about Obama never makes it to the media.]

There are more ‘dribbles and dabs’ coming out of the media in recent months than in all the years before though.
I have hearing loss Stephen, and the computer is my ‘window to the world’ - thus I read, and I read all over the websites and even blogs.

If I could only remember everything I read I would be a ‘star poster’, lolol.
