The moron problem is not unique to Israel.
The supporters of the third parties want Israel to take a tougher line and they see Netanyahu as a sort of RINO.
When the missiles came out of Gaza last summer he used limited force on the terrorists like Johnson and Nixon did with the communists in the Vietnam War.
The article said ... “The Likud party ... has spent much of the last few days in an increasingly frantic scramble to warn right-wing voters that voting for any other right-wing party could lead to a left-wing government.”

That’s exactly what happens to us in the USA, too ... with candidates.
Isn't that the same reason we suffer with hussein?
I don’t know much about Israeli politics, but it’s obvious that Bibi is a good leader.
The Kenyan man child has sent his fixers over there. Voter fraud is going to be rampant.
CNN International just did a piece about the “grassroots” campaign going on to oust Bibi. They called V15 an international group - not Obamarx’s group headed by Jonathan Bird, which is what it is! Listening to the piece, you’d have thought it was about an election campaign going on HERE instead of Israel. The only thing that made it clear it wasn’t here were the names of candidates. But they kept talking about “change” throughout and said the same tired BS about the economy and other Left talking points.
This is Obamarx influencing another country’s elections by sending his henchmen to that country. They never mentioned that Bird and his crew are there, organizing this mess. Made it sound like this is all the Israelis’ doing.
True, not good news. On the brighter side, urgency is much better than overconfidence in goading “fair weather” Likud voters to get off their duffs and vote.
If Bibi looses it is probably another sign of the End of Days. I could never see Bibi making a deal with the Antichrist, but a Leftist PM would.
Should the Israelis reject Netanyahu and the loony Leftists be put in charge, things are going to be a lot more dangerous for Israel's survival. I do not understand Israeli's reasoning. The proposed solution actually advances the cause of Israel's mortal enemy, Iran.
Perhaps Bibi needs to order an Israeli strike on Iran's nuke facilities before he leaves office?
It looks like the speech sunk him.
I think every campaign spikes up the rhetoric at the end of a an election cycle. What is different about this one? This time, the media is invested more heavily in the leftists.
Keep in mind, too, that Obama has operatives working overtime in Israel, trying to destroy Bibi—so I wouldn’t put it past these operatives to “suggest” such stories to fellow liberals in the Israeli press.
just sayin’.
I don’t see the Israeli left being able to form a government.
I think that Rivlin will ask Netanyahu or perhaps Bennett to try and form a government...even if Likud gets a couple less seats than Labor. I like Netanyahu but prefer Bennett.
I think it will be Likud, Jewish Home and some smaller parties that form the new government.
I don’t think a unity government with Likud and Labor is a possibility.
I bet there are new Israeli elections in less than 2 years.
My question is: what is the Israeli equivalent of Detroit or Chicago?
Wonder how many SEIU thugs are over there helping?
If you’d like to be on or off, please FR mail me.

There are local issues in Israel as well, and by most reports this is where Netanyahu has fallen short.

Are Israeli voters as stupid as American voters?
Netenyahooo brought it on himself. He had the chance to wipe out the terrorists that keep attacking them (some call them palestinians) several times but never pushed all the way. He should have cut the head off the snake when he had a chance - even the arabs were going to let him do it without much protest. Isreal deserves to die at this point. But what should we expect when most of them were educated in the liberal west? This sets up an interesting possiblity. Weak lib leaders come in, ISIS attacks, draws in others like Iran, Syria spill over, etc. Russia comes in and weak lib isreali leaders forced to use nukes to fight them back.
