Thumbs up Netanyahu wins third term

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu wins a third term with a narrow victory. Now he'll have to form a coalition government.

I have no idea if that's a good thing or not. Israeli PM's seem to be recycled over and over, have to continually form coalitions, and little seems to ever change.

Glad to hear it.

As for the coalition thing, Israelis rarely elect anyone with a majority. It will happen.

It will happen
- more radicalization and perpetual violence in the Mid East.

This part of the world needs less hard line extremest governments - not more.

Let them turn each other into radio active carbon compounds so they will quit bleeding us dry - once and for all.

Lol Deal with Iran?

Iran has 3.8 Million Military personal
Israel has 750,000.
America has 2.97 Million
Russia has 1.786 Million

Russia has stated time and time again, That they stand with Iran. Last time Iran was in a war they took over 500,000 Casualties and slept it off, Please ask yourself, Do we want to get into a war with a nation that will not only withstand heavy losses, But deal out heavy losses to us as well?

We have lost 132 Soldiers in the 10 years we have been in Afghanistan and those 132 brought tears everytime they were in the paper and made people ask "When are we getting out of there" and "Bring the troops home".

You need to understand something, These losses came to rouge fighters that we heavily outnumbered, If we go against a Military that is well funded, well trained and outnumbers us, The casualties with be 10x that.

So now you decide, Do we want to send our troops into a war against a legitimate army and put them in a situation we have not seen since Korea/Vietnam?
I sure don't, Israel made their bed now they can sleep in it.


Oh yeah, China also said they would stand by Iran, Theres another 4.585 million soldiers to deal with.

I suppose you are in the army Cadets and plan on Enlisting when your 17 to be on the front lines in the war with Iran? I hope so, If you are volunteering other peoples children to go off to die for foreign problems then you should be right along side them.

Mugabe is trying to wipe White people off the map in South Africa, They are on Genocide watch. We should go there and deal with him to, right?

http://www.genocidewatch.org/southafrica.html

Israel has a problem and the whole world knows, White's are victims of Genocide and our own newspapers don't mention a thing.

Nothing fishy there.....

Ah, right, the ones they are "supposedly" making, that no one has proved that they actually have. If your worried about nuclear threats, worry about whats not getting done with the Fukishima plant in Japan. Not much headway being made cleaning that mess up...

Can you tell me why it would? North American and/or Europe are under no threat of forced invasion. Why would we go to war other wise?



Edit: anyone who poses a threat to us is already here.

I am sure if the iranians started shooting heavily at isreal because he openly states that he wants to wipe isreal off the map that isreal will shoot back then isreal gets condemed by russia and china, the the world will be at war including us. You ask why would, because they hate us the so called great satan. Look at the u.s.a. they were hit in one day with planes, did you see that coming, no neither did I but look what happened. To think that we couldn't be at war overnight is very nieve. Yes the ones that pose a threat to us are already here that is whywe could be swept over fast.

Until he is out of office, there will not be any real moves towards peace.

Rabin was the last real hope that region had for peace.

Troop numbers mean very little in this age of technology.
