Likud leader Binyamin Netanyahu has not been faring well as he continues efforts to persuade Kadima and Labor to join his forming coalition government. It is becoming increasingly obvious that the premier designate prefers a broad-based government, even at the expense of handing senior cabinet posts to Kadima officials who disagree with Likud’s policies and platform.
“There has never been such a state of emergency with the exception of the War of Independence” stated Netanyahu, adding “the situation demands a different type of action” by the parties. The Likud leader spoke of what appears to be the imminent closure of the Pri Galil factory in Chatzor HaGlilit in addition to the difficult situation and uncertainty faced by thousands of families as we too feel the global economic crisis.
Netanyahu told Likud colleagues that he spoke with the leaders of Labor and Kadima, and plans to meet with them again.
Following their meetings with Netanyahu, both Tzipi Livni and Ehud Barak did not show any signs of encouragement and are signaling they plan to remain in opposition.

While Lieberman has an option to go with Livni, none of the other right-wing parties have any choice. As long as Netanyahu promises to be less anti-religious than Livni and less anti-settlements than Livni, the religious nationalist and Hareidi parties have no choice but to say “yes sir” and support Netanyahu.
A HOUSE DIVIDED AGAINST ITSELF CAN NOT STAND!!!!!
And all the while Hamas is working quietly in the backround saying, WE DONT HAVE TO DO ANYTHING, SEE THEY ARE ALREADY DIVIDED, LETS JUST WAIT TILL THEY FALL APART. At this point the work is being done for them. And again, what always precedes a fall??? PRIDE. WAKE UP! WAKE UP!
This “Right Winger” wants to give power to those leftists of labor and Kadima?
Send this man to a mental institution!

THE REASON FOR THIS IS VERY SIMPLE.
WE THE FRUM JEWS HAVE A BIG SICKNESS.
WE CAN’T WORK TOGETHER.
THAT IS WHY WE ARE IN THE SITUATION THAT WE ARE IN AT THE MOMENT.
Like I said BIBI is a classic opportunist
