Israeli election - 2009

You are correct, Robert Gentel. It is obvious that OBAMA does not have the conjones to take on Bibi.

And if he does "kick arses", do you think that will help bring about a workable resolution to the conflict?
He might surprise you, you know, by being considerably more pragmatic than you might have anticipated. I'd imagine, that apart from opposition around the planet, there would also be considerable disquiet within Israel itself, to an escalation of Israeli force against the Palestinians.

I doubt that it's "Bibi". More likely the very powerful pro-Israel lobby in the US.
In any case, let's see what Obama's government actually does ....

IT WILL BE BIBI

What exactly will be Bibi?

Bibi will be the new Prime Minister of Israel--

Israel was today poised for its most right-wing government in decades after Binyamin Netanyahu was asked to be the country's next Prime Minister.

In a move that will cause huge disappointment in Washington, President Shimon Peres confirmed that he had asked the Likud leader, who finished a close second in the country's election, to build a coalition.

Giving an acceptance speech that did not mention the stalled Israeli-Palestinian peace process or a two-state solution, Mr Netanyahu instead placed much of his focus on Iran's enrichment of uranium.

"Iran is seeking to obtain a nuclear weapon and constitutes the gravest threat to our existence since the war of independence," Mr Netanyahu said at President Peres’s official residence.
