Netanyahu is a Hebrew speaking Nazi.

The world MUST condemn this man and his FAR RIGHT WING party that threatens the world !!

You're on crack. The only reason israel still exists is from US dollars, and the fact that Egypt and Jordan are both paid off. The Arabs around Israel are weak because they have been deliberately divided and oppressed. A better question is why is there a global war simply so six million zionists can play homeland? Also a good question is why can't Israel stop building settlements, and why do they act like apartheid monkeys, or why do the jews in London act like a gang? Answer:racist arrogance.

watch netanyahu at 28 in 1978 debate fouad ajami, or listen to his more recent speeches like bar ilan and more recent.

@ua1001

Netanyahu has been consistent, he's fine with the idea of a 2nd palestinian state(along with the first one Jordan), in the heart of the historic jewish homeland, but not at the expense of the jewish state. A bit left wing if you ask me.

@oceanbound222

You say Netanyahu is a Nazi but You're a nazi you want to disarm Israel so the Arabs can destroy it.

[ua1001]

Did Netanyahu really say that he does not believe in the two-state solution at all, or was that something that the Israeli opposition said about him??

Regardless....I don't really trust either of them, to tell you the truth.

I have to withdraw my support of Russia and China. As bad as parts of Israel are, they are high moralists compared to those two rotten empires.

[TheRealCritique]

you can call it your homeland, but it was Ottoman/Arab land for a millenium. Of course the Islamists are a gang, so is the IDF. Thats why you guys live a life of slaughter. You could have lived in the West, the Arabs would have modernized by now, and you could have bought property in the holy land, but you had to take it. Israel can't last, but I agree, neither can the Islamist psychopaths in Europe.

yes...the good old story opressed by others.....and the arabs are not acting like a gang? on the outskirts of london? like barbarians.....

and what you call settlements is for us our homeland ...like it or hate it!

If the Zionist experiment is over, why does Israel keep getting stronger and stronger? Your pessimistic picture doesn't reflect the facts on the ground. Regarding genocidal charades, when was the last time the Russians or the Chinese opposed a genocidal charade? The Russians and the Chinese are huge supporters and at times, huge instigators of genocide.

Lieberman isn't crazy at all.  He just tells it like he and millions of Israelis see it. He doesn't sugar coat it like most politicians. A lot of what he says makes sense. The Arabs actually like him because they know where he's coming from.
