It ALSO served to get him an INFLUX of votes from the Nationalist group of voters and away from the other parties they would have voted for, thus giving Netanyahu and Likud a huge boost in seats ... :-) ...
BiBi knows his people are sheep and frighten easily. So are ours today. So politicians often use fear tactics, even if they’re true they do work as a “friendly” reminder. :)
As far as I’m concerned it really doesn’t matter to me whatever BIBi would do to win....there’s too much danger over there and his opposition was being supported by Obama and in Obama’s corner regarding Iran......
BiBi’s election mattered to OUR security as much as Israel’s....and that’s more important then most admit to.
