& why would somebody dislike this…moving on…i liked it when he was asked about the Middle East conflict, he said that their arch-enemies want a Palestinian state recognised but dont want a Jewish one (I have always wondered why they like firing deadly missiles at each other). He also mentioned Abraham of the Bible - that their conflict dates back thousand of years ago…(I have never heard any Israeli do:D:D:D.)
I liked his command of English, his eloquence. He also talked about “digital Israeli cows”
There is no innocent party in middle east conflicts. Whatever the Palestine accuse the Israeli they have done the same. Peace is elusive there because none is honest. The last big chance for peace was at Camp David Summit in 2000 that President Clinton hosted. Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Barak offered considerable concession to give 82% of West Bank and the whole of Gaza to form a new Palestine state. Arafat still stuck to hardline positions and failed to realize the significance of the deal which was greeted by shock in Israel. It failed and the Israel Prime minister suffered a backlash at home. That deal has never been offered again. Israel went on to build the border wall unilaterally and until today remains the unofficial border.
Netanyahu is brilliant and doesn’t fear speaking his mind. I watched him in March last year addressing the American Congress on allowing Iran to have nuclear arms and he spared no punches. He told them Israel was the one that stood to suffer from Iran arms and Israel would never allow that to happen. Other than Putin, I don’t think there’s any other world leader capable of that.
That puffed up megalomaniac is a complete dolt. Can he even make a coherent speech in the mould of his father or grandfather?
He only rose to power courtesy of the North Korean political dynasty.
True Israel knew the Iranian sanctions were working forcing them to stop Iranian arms industry including nuclear and ballistics missiles program. Hardliners were also losing the hold of the nation in favour of moderates. Now with the sanctions gone, hardliners have a reprieve and will just move the programs underground. Either way we know they will still target Israel whether the usa tries to be denial or not.
I thought the issue you are raising is that its apart from Netanyahu, Putin is the only leader who doesn’t fear speaking his mind. And I gave you the example of Kim Jong.
