Is he going to get us into war????

but these days. It has been months since we have known what the next day would bring.

It seems that Israel is in the position of: if Bibi can't have everything he wants, he will burn down Israel. I have believed that is what Trump has been wanting for a long time.

Nikita Khrushchev

Frankly, I hope the whole bunch of Arab nations decides to take Bibi out. I have friends in Israel, but damn! This is a blatant violation of international law and a declaration of war.

the partitioning of Palestine.He always told me that his life there was pleasant but his parents were afraid of what would happen when the Zionists gained control.

My late Israeli friend Yitzhak was a flaming leftist who never had any use for Bibi or the right wing or the "ultras" as he called the Haredim, who are a powerful voting bloc but don't, for the most part, serve in the army, yet are all in on the "reconquest" of the West Bank which they see as their "God-given" land. He is no doubt on spin cycle at present. Not too sure how my friend Michal feels about this either as she isn't fond of them but is a member of the Peace Party. She should probably have stayed over here, however she went back and became a well-known marine archaeologist. Yitzhak was a friend to the Bedouins (his kibbutz in the northern Negev sponsors a clinic for local tribes and a shop for local artisans) and lived with them for a time when he was young. He got along okay with Palestinians until some bombed a school his kids went to.

children when he was a kid in British occupied Palestine.

Pretty sure that's against international law. They don't even try to hide it.
