Poll: Likud 29 Labor 18 Kadima 15, Nuclear Iran top concernI'm not hiding the fact that I am not happy with Bibi. I have serious problems with the fact that he mistakenly thinks that he should be a "centrist," rather than uncompromisingly, unabashedly right wing nationalist and Jewish. But considering the dangerous and pathetic politicians running against him...

Bibi's Hidden For A Reason
Israel's media has been hiding Likud and opposition leader, Bibi Netanyahu, for a reason. It's the same reason why Israel's politicians removed the law for direct election of Prime Minister.

Netanyahu has been bought a long time ago. Moshe Feiglin's Manhigut Yehudit is a good idea but I have a nagging thought that it would have been better to put it in the Labor Party rather than the Likud (Licouldn't). The Labor movement built the land and once had a real connection to it. Not that they were such tzaddikim. Not that I forget the Altalena one minute. But the emptier and the more rotten the shell, the easier it is to take over. The manipulation of the post-election results has already started with Gaydamak, the current candidate for UFO coalition party in the tradition of Pensioners, Shinui, etc., the little party that comes out of nowhere funded by whom (?) -- NIF, EU, Ford Foundation, some rich businessman abroad, Reform Movement -- and immediately gets a few seats and sells itself to you-know-who for the appropriate sum together with Shas.
The other missing question in the poll about national concerns is the plight of our internal refugees from Gush Katif and Shomron. Your average citizen doesn't seem to get it because he has a TV in his living room, and your average pollster doesn't want him to. We notice because we know we're next.
Interesting points, goyish, why haven't you been posting?
