Netanyahu 2.0?

More like Netanyahu 5.0. Bibi has had more comebacks than the Rolling Stones.

Not that I’m aware of...
Guess I’m like the dinosaur, 65 million years ago, that ran around for about a thousand years telling everyone that there was an asteroid the size of My Everest about to hit Earth...

However, whenever they are ready to test their first device, I’d assume that they actually have 2 or 3 ready to go almost immediately so they can throw punches at both Israel and the evil giant (us) before Netanyahu wipes them out...

After all, between obamy and xiden, Iran has received billions for nuke development...

I like Bibi also but Bennett's agreement last year was a disaster. Bennett now hands the government to Lapid, which would be like handing it to Biden. Lapid is a two-state solution guy and is an opposite to Bennett, who will hand Biden several concessions.

Bennett is loyal to Israel on his own, but hated Bibi like many RINO's hate Trump, so much so he agreed last year to hand things to Lapid when he stepped down.

============

Lapid's party (which sounds just like our Dems)

Yesh Atid is also in favor of the following:

Creating greater religious pluralism, diversity, and equality between Jews and all movements of Judaism within Israel by instituting public funding by the state for the non-Orthodox movements within Judaism, such as the Reform, Conservative, Reconstructionist, and Humanistic movements, similar to the public funding of the Orthodox Chief Rabbinate by the state

Allowing non-Orthodox movements to perform religious conversions and weddings, and have their conversions and weddings accepted as legitimate by the state

Allowing egalitarian prayer between men and women, and all Orthodox and non-Orthodox Jewish religious movements, at the Western Wall[82][83][84]

Partial operation of public transportation on Saturdays[85][86]

Renewing peace negotiations with the Palestinians and halting construction in Israeli settlements[87][88]

Gradually ending Israel's dependency on fossil fuels to become carbon neutral in 2050.[89]

Yesh Atid supports increasing LGBT rights. The party supports the following policies:

Allowing surrogacy for same-sex couples.[90][91]

Instituting civil marriage in Israel, including between same-sex couples.[2]

Allowing LGBT adoption of Israeli children.[90][91]
Currently, Israeli same-sex couples are allowed to adopt foreign children, but not Israeli ones.

Introducing more stringent punisment for hate crimes against LGBT individuals.[91]

Banning conversion therapy.[91]

Allowing individuals to change their gender in their identity card without having to undergo gender reassignment surgery.[91]

Releasing guidelines on the treatment of LGBT individuals in the education system and incorporating mandatory LGBT-related studies.[91]

True, I heard that his ‘partner’ (a little British lingo) was a nasty person...I remembered that after posting.

As it is, Israel may have dodged a bullet. We shall see.

Bibi come back!

You can blame it all on me,
I was wrong, and I just can't live without you ...

(I could have passed on that one, but I chose not to. The full responsibility is mine.)

“I love Bibi, but also like Bennett too. Unlike the US Democrats, Bennett actually loves his country and never had a problem beating the crap out of its enemies.”

You’re obviously entitled to like Bennett or anyone else you choose but Bennett REALLY betrayed his voter base. Keep in mind that Bennett got 7 out of 120 seats (5%+) which means he appealed a VERY limited audience(the right leaning barely-orthodox crowd)

He weaseled his way to the front row and basically created a left-strong coalition while turning his back on the demographic that voted him in.

A very clear example is the Gush Etzion bloc south of Jerusalem. That was basically his stronghold. Over 43% of the electorate in the largest town there (Efrat) voted for Bennett, yet the funding and contruction for the widening of Route 60 through Gush Etzion has been completely halted for the past year.
Getting to/from Jerusalem from the Gush has become unbearable the past few years as the population has quadrupled. The instant halt of the badly needed road widening to appease the left wing of the coalition without evening putting up a fight, really infuriated the people of the Gush. Every day they crawl on route 60 while staring at the abandoned, half completed road project out their side windows.

Bennett is nothing more than an opportunist of the highest order — He got in way over his head.

I believe this is one main reason the founding fathers chose against a parlimentary for of government and thus created the federal government defined in the Constitution.

“ Their intelligence that they provided for the battles we fight for them?”

No, and that’s a twisted statement. We were attacked on 9/11 and it wasn’t by Israel.

It wasn’t Iraq either.

I was in the military when 9/11 happened.
You can keep your condescending tone to yourself.

Thanks for your service.

And if you stop making ridiculous slander about Israel you won’t get any condescending tone.

Did you bother to read the article?
