What is happening in Israel is terrifying. How could a far-rightist get more votes than historical Labour Party ? We can see that Israelis don't believe in peace anymore : it's for the same reason that Palestinians voted for Hamas. If we want to avoid the worsening of the situation, we need a strong and neutral intervention. And Obama is the one who could do this.

That would certainly be better than a fascist like Lieberman.
( personally I would have voted for Meretz )

Lieberman wants an "ethnically pure" Israel, and amalgamates arabs and terrorists : even Le Pen is not so explicitly far-rightist.

In his speeches, he uses very hard formulas, as "we had better to bombard all the Ramallah places where Palestinian authority does business", "to take [palestinian prisoners] to the Dead Sea and throw them away here", "to treat Gaza as Chechnya", or "I don't say that all muslims are terrorists, but that all terrorists are muslims !". ( personal traductions to the french, Marianne #617, p 50-51 )
Are there words of a moderate ?

You have right. But anyway, his political views are close to racism against arabs. He wants peace only to get Israel free of Palestinians. And that is at least as dangerous as the religious right.

So, erm, Labour has been asked to join the government, and Barak said yes.  But large parts of the party are saying no.

Just disgusting...
