St. Paddy's Day in Israel

Tomorrow is Israel's big election where the current Prime Minister, Benjamin (Bibi) Netanyahu and his Likud party is in a close race with the centrist Zionist party. The latest polls show the Zionist party is slightly ahead.

The Center-left Zionist party is led by Tsipi Livni and Isaac Herzog, both predicting that an "upheaval" is in the wings. If this is true, then I believe Israel is doomed. If the government goes "dove," then the Hamas fox will eat it for dinner.

Bibi vowed in a Monday interview, that if he is re-elected, a Palestinian state will not be established. For those of you who are not anti-Semitic and perhaps even pro-Israel, that's a good thing. Let's be clear, Hamas wants the total destruction of Israel and the Muslims in Gaza and throughout the Islamic world, want the same thing.

It isn't about land--it's about hating Jews.

Bibi made it clear that if Israel withdrew from the current occupied areas to allow for a Palestinian state to occupy that land, it would spell disaster as it would be taken over by jihadists whose main ambition in life is death and eternal Paradise with 72 virgins, young boys and rivers of wine. 

The surest way to have the gift of Paradise is to kill Jews and infidels, but especially Jews. Mohammad hated them. The Koran hates them. Allah hates them. (Funny, you'd think a wise and all-powerful god such as Allah would know better than to create a group of people he hates and ask humans, who are not as powerful than he is, to kill them. Maybe this Allah god isn't all that powerful, after all.)

Back in 2005, Israel peacefully withdrew from the Gaza Strip. Enter Hamas, who soon started escalating their attacks on Israeli civilians. Livni and Herzog believe these barbarians can be reasoned with--they are useful idiots.

In a speech he gave on Monday at Har Homa, Bibi said, "The choice is symbolic: the Likud led by me, that will continue to stand firmly for (Israel's) vital interests, compared with a left-wing government . . . ready to accept any dictate."

Herzog, like Obama, promises to repair ties with the Palestinian Islamists. It's difficult to tell if they are both simply naive, simply simple, or have other plans in mind that isn't being spoken. In Obama's case, I wouldn't doubt it.

But at the very least, the Obama administration should stay out of Israel's political affairs and stop trying to influence the outcome of this election. There is now a Senate probe exploring the OneVoice Movement and its relationship with V15 from Israel.
