The paranoid ramblings of a leader who's lost his grip

Benjamin Netanyahu’s recent Facebook status, posted on Friday in Hebrew, is distinctly odd. It makes him sound like a rambling paranoid who’s off his meds, and local reporters have definitely noticed, with various Israeli journalists exchanging comments in Hebrew and English on social media platforms. In response to popular demand, I’ve translated the status into English (below).

The translated status:

The public should know the truth: Noni Mozes is leading a campaign against the Likud and against me in the name of his business interests. He wants to bring back the dangerous, undemocratic monopoly that prevailed when his newspaper was the most dominant. Mozes’s goal is to bring a leftist government to power. Leftist activists in Israel and abroad are pouring tens of millions of dollars into organizations that are leading the “anyone but Bibi” campaign.

These organizations are working to persuade Arab voters to cast their ballots for the left. They have even initiated a house-to-house campaign in recent weeks.

The enlistment of foreign organizations is not for financial reasons or social reasons, but for political reasons. Those foreign organizations understand that if Tzipi and Buji are in charge, they will give up everything. They’ll withdraw to the 1967 boundaries and they will divide Jerusalem — just as Tzipi and Buji promised they would do do. They know that unlike Tzipi and Buji, the Likud and I will never surrender to pressure.

These foreign organizations understand that the only thing blocking a withdrawal to the ‘67 boundaries, dividing Jerusalem, the establishment of “Hamastan B” on the hills that overlook Tel Aviv, Ben Gurion Airport and all of Israel, and accepting a nuclear Iran — the only thing — is a Likud government.

The only response to Noni Mozes’s campaign of seduction and to the millions of dollars that are flowing in from abroad to leftist organizations, is to go next week and cast the only ballot possible: only Likud.

Have you noticed how many Left wing American Jews contribute to 972 azurnoir ?

Interesting is it not ?

One of the best IMHO is Larry Derfner .....his latest english article is spot on :

Yesterday you post a bigoted post about American Jews in general :

We owe so much to them and to the American Jewish community that produced them .
Same American Jewish community that produced Kach .


Imagine if someone said that about American Muslims that :
"We owe so much to them and to the American Muslim community that produced them .
Same American Muslim community that produced The Boston Bombers. "


,it would be considered vile islamaphobia , and rightly so.

And today this very post here ? Also obsessed with who you call
"American Jews"

You should take to heart what Jefferson said here :


It is amusing to me how some members here believe they can tell who is
and who is not Jewish. You have to laugh, it is right out of the play book.
I would not waste my time if I were you on their posts..but that's just me.
