[quote=Anonymous][quote=jsteele][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=jsteele]Netanyahu increased the number of seats that his party held in the last election. However, he did it at the expense of other right-wing parties. As a result, the pool of potential coalition parties decreased. The situation was further aggravated when Avigdor Lieberman said his party wouldn't join a coalition. As a result, Netanyahu was only able to form a coalition with the minimum number of votes necessary, basically giving the extremists a blank check in exchange for their support. The extremists took advantage and the result is a government that is unbelievable:

[b]Defense Minister[/b]: Moshe Yaalon -- recently said, "we are going to hurt Lebanese civilians to include kids of the family. We went through a very long deep discussion … we did it then, we did it in [the] Gaza Strip, we are going to do it in any round of hostilities in the future." He also suggested that Israel would use a nuclear bomb against Iran.

[b]Deputy Defense Minister[/b]: Eli Ben-Dahan -- said in a published interview that the "souls of all Jews are higher than those of Christians or Muslims or anybody else"

He also said about Palestinians: "For me they are brutes, they are not human". His current position gives him responsibility over the West Bank and the Palestinians who live there.

[b]Justice Minister[/b]: Ayelet Shaked -- Has euphemistically called for genocide against the Palestinians and more explicitly called for killing Palestinian mothers so that they cannot give birth to children.

I notice you left out Hamas leaders aweful and hateful statements about Jews, Israel, the U.S., etc.  but you don't want to publicize that part of the story do you.[/quote]

Jeff's first source, the EI? Take a look at at the Twitter feeds of the founder and an EI colleague after those three Israeli boys were kidnapped (and later murdered). Good LORD!

What is your point? Do you think the report to which I linked is wrong? Okay, set that one aside. What about the other two? What is your opinion of these ministers? Do you agree with the quoted remarks? Do you want to engage in discussion of the topic of this thread or just try to deflect it?

[/quote]Given your first source, your mindset is clear  [/quote]
