Confined to Baraks

Well, well. The day I have long hoped for has arrived - sort of. It has been announced that Ehud Barak is leaving the Labour party. Don't get too excited. He's not r-e-s-i-g-n-i-n-g. Please. Israeli pols don't do resigning. They leave to go on lucrative lecture tours, to begin prison sentences, whatever, but they always come back.

The Labour party has no place in this government and the task now is to elect a leader who commands and deserves respect, who will regroup and rebuild the party. There are MKs in Labour's ranks who qualify. Let's hope he or she is elected.

And let's hope Ehud Barak's new party gets the treatment it deserves and remains confined to Baraks.

Ho, ho, Marian. Confined to Baraks. Very good. Almost as good as Bnei Brak Street Boys. I hope that he and his friends go the way of other splitters.

Well, that's one more nail in the Avoda's coffin. Atsmaut destiny is probably to merge with Kadima. And that will be the swan's song of the Israeli left, laying in drags such as Meretz.

No sane politician or sane political party has any place in a government that is so ridiculous it includes Plug " scarface " Malone aka Lieberman who , almost single handedly, is making Israel the laughing stock of the civilised world

Posner are you STILL here ?

armchair, I am still waiting for your reply. You complain that you just get called names, but when someone tries to engage with you, you do a disappearing act.

As for the disappearing act one does have a living to earn you know being an incomparable genius doesn't by itself pay the bills one has to apply said genius

armchair, go back to the PSC thread and look.

If you aren't interested in any substantive debate, just say so.

Especially since you cannot buy a new keyboard, without the missing "." key!
But then how would you apply something you never had?

"making Israel the laughing stock of the civilised world"

Only in the deranged, drug-fuelled dreams of spittle-flecked Jew-haters like you.

Wheelchair, even the minimum wages must look like a fortune. Try to get a new keyboard for $10, next time you receive your welfare check.

That makes no difference to paranoid-schizophrenic Jew-haters.

Posner you seem awfully well informed about Posner

Anyway Marian had something interesting to say which could have led to an educative discussion why do you hysterical rabid freaks have to screw every hint of a calm thoughtful discussion ?

Amusing to see the specialist of red herring and ad hominem pretend that others do what he is guilty of, never being able to talk on the subject on the blogs.
Wheelchair, go to your mother and ask for a refund.

Then so was I, idiot. But you didn't even notice, a tribute to your observation skills that had always been very low.
