Opposition head Yitzchak Herzog opened the Zionist Union faction meeting today by addressing the comments made by Finance Minister Moshe Kahlon to the effect that the government needs a vacation before it ends up institutionalized. […]

The Opposition leader then turned to comments quoted in the media as having been said by Minister Miri Regev and Coalition Chairman David Bitan: “What good does a broadcasting corporation do if we can’t control it?”, and “the press is too free.”

“These aren’t just slips of the tongue or mistakes. This is what Netanyahu actually thinks. This is what he expects them to say,” Herzog claimed, “Netanyahu is trying to become an Israeli Fidel Castro.” …

Hearsay (allegedly from left-leaning Likud members too), and nothing from Netanyahu himself. If that’s the best Herzog can do, then he’s on the way down.

yeah, if Bib’s on record saying it, it’s a little worrisome, but someone else (IF they did say it) is their opinion. They’re not the boss.

I would usually consider Israel’s situation in any comment, but the US is pretty much in the same boat lately.

Surrounded by enemies, inside and out.

If you count rapes, murders and DWI/DUI by illegals, we are probably getting attacked with the same frequency.

Prayers out to both countries.

Dennis Prager had a great analysis of this in his 2012 book.
There’s a war of the worldviews: islamo-fascist, Judeo-Christian American, liberal secular.
The liberal secularist is more afraid the Judeo-Christian will become a religious oppressive force (like “The Handmaids Tale” and many other books) while ignoring the multiple Shariah law states.
The liberal secular allies with the Muslim in the West because they see them as an underdog, ignoring Islam’s almost entirely violent spread (Indonesia being the only nation converted by missionaries). And they ignore its misogyny and racism by blaming it on oppression and ignorance, both of which they plan to solve and assuming doing this will lead to Muslims joining the liberal’s tribe.
However, Islam has far more reinforcing mechanisms, from threats of violence to keep believers in line and violence to force the non-Muslims to join to religious incentives for those who join (polygamy, arranged marriages, sex slaves). So it will not join with liberal secular long term, but it can and will work with them for the moment.
So the Muslims join with the liberals to attack Judeo-Christian like “take down that Christmas tree” to “you can’t base your decisions on your religion”, while the liberal promotes multi-culturalism the Muslims use to carve out cultural ghettos that are separate from secular society and try to spread the faith. This is why every multi-faith event I’ve seen is a Muslim lecturing people in a church or synagogue but the Christian never gets to speak from the stand in a mosque.
The end result is liberals thinking Muslims are their allies while Muslims use them to dig in deeper and spread - to the threat of liberal secular civilization. And they use the Muslims to say “see, this monotheist agrees with me, so I don’t really hate religion!” while the Muslims bide their time until they are in charge.

But that mistaken perception by liberal secularists that conservative Christians and Jews are the biggest threat to society is why they minimize and ally with Islamo-fascists.

Knowing how these Leftists loved Fidel Castro, this must be a great thing for them.

It’s not true. Herzog is a damnable liar.

Israel has had “at least it’s share” of left wing politicians. This could just be more of the same political b s. Or it could represent the soros$$$’s one last attempt at undermining Israel while Obama’s still on office. Gotta expect that will be tried.

How can a Socialist fag like Herzog compare a right wing, conservative leader to what Herzog’s party used to adore, namely, a Communist?
