It is long past time to break the grip of these hard right wing ultra-Orthodox ***** in Israel - and their criminal "Dear Leader." They are the same as the hard right wing evangelical fruitcakes in this country - and both pose an existential threat to both nations.

“Israel will not allow Iran to arm itself with nuclear weapons,”

Shall we compare Iran's enrichment levels under the deal and those today?

A war monger who became PM based on his dead brother’s heroics.

Never saw a war he wouldn’t love (for the US to fight for him). Never saw a non-Jewish minority he wouldn’t oppress.

So glad he’s gone regardless of what comes next.

I hope to some day visit reunified Palestine. I know that there are some who'll say it'll never happen, and some of those who'll tell you it'll be a place of violence and oppression and racism, but when I was young they said the same thing about reunified South Africa, but though you could see the scars from the time a regime kept it divided, it was a beautiful place when I visited it, even the sites that preserved a record of the ugliness of the regime.

Good riddance. See you in The Hague Bibby.

Last year there were demonstrations against his corruption and they used a yellow submarine float.

Nutty Yahoo had better get his ass aboard a real 'yellow submarine' and start sailing before he gets a jailing!

Bennett, an observant Jew, noted that the ancient Jewish people twice lost their homeland in biblical times due to bitter infighting.

"bitter infighting" (Excellent parody of it in Monty Python's Life of Brian.)

he was indicted in 2019 for fraud, breach of trust and accepting bribes.

So, what has happened with that? Was he exempt from prosecution while PM, and now that he is no longer the head of state, he can be arrested and tried (as some of the posters above are hinting)? Anyone here have an actual explanation and not just expressing what they hope to see?

Better the devil you know than the devil you don’t know. With Netz it’s been a long time coming! POS. From someone who has spent time in the region.

That's what he gets. He's reaping what he sowed. In India that's called 'karma'.

Bye bye Nutty Yahoo.

Yahoooooooo!

The coalition only has to stay together until Bibi is arrested and indicted.

You are confused. Bibi was indicted for fraud, breach of trust and accepting bribes. Mr. Bennett is not currently under indictment for anything.
