Israel and Palestine going at it again

Naftali Bennet was my guy, then he got lost along the way.

He served in the best unit in the IDF, self made guy worth over $100,000,000.

Child of American parents.

Then we had the 4th election in 2 years, Bennet was stabbed in the back by a liar named Bibi. So he joined the lets get rid of Bibi side of things. Which I am part of that camp.

But they had to use Ra'am, the Islamic party to form the 61 seats needed. I say never sit with Arabs that live between the river and the sea.

So I am worried about his judgement, as of now.

But Bibi the whore and liar, was the first to crawl in bed with Ra'am.

Politics is politics. Add race and religion to the mix and it gets even more sticky. The same problems existed before Netanyahu and they will exist after. He made some things better, he made some things worse and there have certainly been worse PMs, you guys had an actual, factual terrorist serve once.

The essence of the problem is the idea of a "jewish state" brings with it many complications such as who is a jew and by what criteria. Is someone born to jewish parents automatically jewish even if they practice catholicism and what of people who have no jewish parents but practice judaism? Ironically Germany ran into nearly identical problems but for different reasons and with much different criteria.

Then deciding who else can live in a "jewish state" even though they aren't jewish, have no jewish relatives and don't practice judaism without becoming a theocracy or a race based state with troubling overtones.

From inception Israel has struggled to reconcile all of these internal problems, while dealing with external problems (mostly associated with countries who desire to eliminate all jews and destroy any jewish state) and then attempting to address all the day to day challenges that every other country has on their best day.

Personally I blame Mtv.

You only liked him cause he named his kid after you.

No he named his kid after Bibi's brother

I know, it was a joke.

Damn, I really need that sarcasm font.

Bibi will pull out all the stakes to stay PM, he needs criminal justice and court reform. Because without it he is looking at additional corruption and criminal charges that could make him a guest of the State for maybe the rest of his life.

Im shocked at a lot of the anger at him. Ive always liked him...cant give a specific reason why...but I sure aint one to profess to know a lot about his actions, either.
Yoni, if you had to narrow it down, what exactly has he done wrong?
I completly understand if you dont wish to answer, if not could you point me to some online info?

Yeah, trying to be PM for life is sort of a Putin thing so I get that.
