BERLIN - JANUARY 18: In this handout image supplied by the Israeli Government Press Office (GPO), German Chancellor Angela Merkel and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu attend a press conference following talks at the Chancellery on January 18, 2010 in Berlin, Germany. Netanyahu called for immediate international sanctions to be placed on Iran. Netanyahu and his delegation are in Berlin for a round of German-Israeli government consultations.

Does Bibi ever smile like this with Ozero or Mitchell?

There is something kind of amazing about how true it is to call last night's victory "the Scott heard 'round the world."

I love Bibi. He rocks.

If only America had a leader like him....(sigh).....

This is the BIBI ping list.

Scott Brown's election didn't just effect Massachusetts, or just the U.S. It really has consequences and repercussions around the world.

An aside: Angela has certainly aged in the last six years.

[BARLF]

And why would someone call her attractive when she was running? Wasn't she the one with her cleavage showing in photos?

[sheik yerbouty]

I believe a German paper caught her ample buttocks at some resort..

[Cinnamon Girl]

Looks like she’s checking his guns.

[expatpat]

Maybe a majority of Jews will vote Republican in November? Naw....

[Cyber Liberty]

There's more love for the USA in this picture than there is in Obzo's entire Cabinet.

[Digger]

If only America had a leader like him....(sigh).....

He's really the only leader in the world today.

[SevenofNine]

Yeah I think so ROFL

[Cinnamon Girl]

Good call.

So has Bibi. I am avoiding my cable company by watching videos saved from the Bush years. Yesterday I saw the Prime Minister just after the attack on the US on Sep 11, 2001.

He was just as committed to protecting Israel then as now.

[Raymann]

I don’t get it. True the man is more free market then not but he’s no further to the right then say Bill Clinton. He was personally responsible for instituting Israel’s Value Added Tax.

Then again I’m not the best person to ask. Israel is a socialist nation and I have no bone to pick in a fight between socialists and terrorists.

[Cinnamon Girl]

Israel has been steadily moving away from socialism thanks to Bibi. They are innovators in all areas, medical, technological, defense. Check the Israel Test by George Gilder. Is there something in particular you are referring to with regard to Bibi’s political leanings?
