[quote:Silverback:MV8yODI4NzgxXzcwMDQ5MTI4X0Q3RTdDMTk4] [quote:jake:MV8yODI4NzgxXzcwMDQ3MTU0XzcxQ0Y2QzQ3] [quote:ISO:MV8yODI4NzgxXzcwMDQ3MDcyX0FCNThDMUM3] [quote:~Jazzy~:MV8yODI4NzgxXzcwMDQ2OTAxX0NBN0Q1QTUw] [quote:Noble Six:MV8yODI4NzgxXzcwMDQ2NzQ2XzNBRUIyN0ZE] I'm at a loss on something, Jazzy. How is it that Likud committed political suicide? [/quote] Netanyahu is already on thin ice and has been for quite a while. He's under investigation for fraud, kickbacks, and breach of trust. And his wifes' little spending shenanigans aren't helping. He has consistently backed down time and again from taking action against hamass even when other parties have urged him not to. And most of this has been since Liberman became DM. Livni recently called him out for being indecisive and weak. He was just BARELY able to form a unity gov in his last election as PM, and only then with a bunch of wrangling and promises to unsavory characters (Bennett/Liberman/Herzog). Hell, even Ehud Barak has come out of the woodwork to speak against him. The people in the border towns are at their wits end because of hamass and feel that Netanyahu is turning a blind eye to their plight in order to save his own ass politically. This has been going on for far too many years. People are fed up and they show it at the polls. [/quote] Almost everyone who has been watching this Gaza situation for 10 years or more was certain that Israel would remove Hamas, take Gaza City and install the Palestinian Authority, almost immediately after Trump was inaugurated. Instead, we now see historic, uncharacteristic weakness and indecisiveness from Israel. It's hard to explain why this once in a lifetime geo-political blue moon is being squandered by Netanyahu. I feel like Trump has something of a desire to make peace in the region a goal of his and didn't give Netanyahu the expected support to oust Hamas. If true though, this shows Trump is not a standard Zionist, but an ideological neutral observer. If this weakness is Netanyahu alone, he better hurry in case Trump is ousted by Dems taking over house and Senate in November. Israel will surely be met with betrayal or at least lack of support by the next more liberal US administration. In a more jaded view, it's possible Israel doesn't want it resolved at all because a deal making Palestinians citizens of Israel with voting rights won't work, and setting up a statehood deal where the West Bank is then physically connected to Gaza & radicalized won't work for them either. [/quote] What is your opinion guys and girls? Is it Trump or netanyahu? [/quote] I believe you should try to put yourself in Netanyahus place. He is entrusted with the health and welfare of his country. It is pretty obvious to some that Iran is a nuke power already. They purchased 14 cruise missiles from Ukraine. Ukraine says they were "de-mil'd". It would be pointless to buy them without warheads. You have not and will not hear about Iran purchasing nukes from nk,pak, Russ etc Netanyahu could put a stop to hamass but at the cost of scores or hundreds of soldiers. For a nation of 6 million that is a big number. He could go to the source and hit Iran at a potential cost of losing the nation. Surely, it is a huge problem to have to rum to shelters every few months. But, ultimately the rockets did surprising small damage. The Pentagon says Israel is a one bomb country. One nuke on tel Aviv and there would not be sufficient infrastructure left for Israel to defend itself in even the medium term. Sometimes, as a leader, you have to opt for the lesser of two evils. He did the right thing. [/quote]
