In a definitive disavowal of his Bar-Ilan two-state speech, prime minister makes last-minute attempt to draw voters from Bennett's Habayit Hayeudi.
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyhau said Monday that if he were to be reelected, a Palestinian state would not be created, in a definite disavowal of his 2009 speech, in which he had voiced support for the principle of two states for two peoples.
Netanyahu's remarks in an interview with the NRG website - which is owned by casino mogul Sheldon Adelson and tied with the settler newspaper Makor Rishon - were a last-minute attempt to pull right-wing voters away from Habayit Hayehudi.
"I think that anyone who moves to establish a Palestinian state and evacuate territory gives territory away to radical Islamist attacks against Israel," Netanyahu said. The left has buried its head in the sand time and after time and ignores this, but we are realistic and understand."
During the interview, Netanyahu declared that if the Zionist Union were to win the elections, "it would attach itself to the international community and do they bidding," including freezing construction in West Bank and East Jerusalem settlements, and cooperate with international initiatives to return Israel's borders to the 1967 lines.

If I remember it was fairy boy and his left wing nuts who went to Egypt for Morsi to be elected and it was they who helped to get the protests started.
Now they send the same ilk over again to Israel.
This administration should all be facing prison time for what they have done.
Most open administration ever, HA more like the most corrupt administration ever and that is beating quite a few and saying something.
I’m sure the left has figured a way for left wing nuts here to vote in their election
There already is a Palestinian state. It’s called Jordan.
Amen to your prayers Onyx. Has anyone heard anything today?
I don’t believe Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is talking about Jordan ... :-) ...
Who didn’t like the “message” there? I pick up my news from all over. I’ve even gotten some good reports from Al Jazeera ... :-) ...
Here’s some information about Sheldon Adelson:

>>There already is a Palestinian state. Its called Jordan.<<
I thought it was called “Syria.” 6/half-dozen.
My favorite fact: After WWII there were 50 MILLION displaced people in Europe and Asia, all of which were absorbed in a generation.
Here it is, many generations later and 1 million “palastinians” are refused entry by their “brethren” muslims. Instead, they are left to fester like an open and infected wound.
More proof islam is the ideology of evil.
And most importantly, demonstrates that the idea of "Demography is on the side of the Palestinians" is completely false. The Israeli population is growing significantly faster than the Palestinians'.
You won’t hear anything from Israel until after 10 PM Israel time ... on TUESDAY.
Ditto! As concerned for and glued to Israel’s election as I was for our 2012.
Netanyahu is fighting for Israel’s life.
We may not even know on Tues....BUT even if Herzog’s party beats Netanyahu’s Likud party, there is still hope for Netanyahu. I think that is his strategy now-—and we know he is at least as good a politician as he is a leader.
Obama has put the full force of his presidential power & the diabolical skill of the Dem party operatives & unlimited $s behind Netanyahu’s defeat.
I pray that the Captain of the Lord’s Host stands by Israel’s side.

Two good articles that told me more than I ever knew about Israeli elections:
What you need to know about Israeli elections but were afraid to ask

Even if Likud loses, Netanyahu could become prime minister

Joining with you in that prayer, onyx.
They already have Palestinian states - Syria, Lebanon, and Jordan.
Drudge's giant-boldtype headline to the article:
I wish Netanyahu would say that. :)
Shelly is pumping bucks into Israeli politics, so using his media to argue against American involvement might seem hypocritical.
That’s kind of like having “Moonie money” backing and funding the Washington Times with its conservative media position ... :-) ...
Stand w/YHVH Benjamin, so He may stand w/you!
Bibi tried to tell the people without naming names that Obama had sunk millions into defeating him>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
And where did Obi Iwon Renoobi get the money? From the Saudi princes.
Bibi should have told it all.
Thanks. Am trying to keep busy so I don’t worry. Keep reminding myself it’s all in HIS hands.
