Victory or Last Warning to Likud
by Steven Shamrak
Prime Minister
Binyamin Netanyahu celebrated, what he called, a "major victory" in
the last Israeli elections.
"Against all
odds: a great victory for the Likud. A major victory for the people of
Israel!" he wrote on his official Twitter account. Soon after the election
exit polls were announced, Jewish Home Chairman Naftali Bennett called Prime
Minister Binyamin Netanyahu and congratulated him. “They agreed to begin
accelerated negotiations for establishing a national government and working in
cooperation for the security of the state of Israel and the nation of Israel.”
In a desperate last ditch moment before election Netanyahu stated: "Anyone who is going to establish a
Palestinian state, anyone who is going to evacuate territories today, is simply
giving a base for attacks to the radical Islam against
This was enough for many Jewish voters to shake off a
political apathy, like one of them told me “we have already seen this movie”,
and come out in support of Likud. Netanyahu
must not forget why people voted for him this time. It could be the last time
Jews of Israel believe in Likud!
Israeli voters had
enough with continuous political deception and arrogance. They saw it in the
name of the fake Zionist party, ‘Zionist Union’, created by veterans of
political prostitution, who do not care about the future of Israel or the
Jewish people, only their self-interests. Israelis have had enough of it! A new
political movement is on the rise in Israel. It could be the last election when
Likud and the anti-Zionist left were given final notice - serve your country,
respect the ideals and aspirations of Jewish people Israel was created on or get
lost!
Prior to the election, CNN presented a
list of key issues
1. Repairing relations with the United States
- The US has the long history of patronizing the Jewish state and undermining
its future. It would be prudent that the next President of the United States,
no such expectation from Obama, to take steps to repair relations with “the
best friend” of the US, because Israel has done its most to prove its true
friendship to American people!
2. Confronting Iran - The existential
danger for Israel from nuclear armed Iran is real! As any self-respecting
independent state, Israel must do what is right for its people. There is nobody
to rely on - just look how long it takes for ‘advanced’ democratic powers to
deal with problems in Afghanistan, Iraq, Libya and Syria - and with their
deeply ingrained anti-Semitic attitude, the best Israel can hope is that
they’ll stay neutral on this issue when Israel take action!
3. Solving problems with Palestinians - The
problem has artificially been created and fostered since 1947 by the United
Nations and all ‘Jew-loving’ states, must be exposed as the anti-Israel ploy it
is. The fake Palestinians were invented to discredit the legitimacy of the
Jewish state! There are Zionist solutions to the problem - it is time for the
government of Israel to start implementing them.
4. Addressing growing social inequality -
For too long, the Arab-Israel conflict and Israel’s security were used as an
excuse by the governments of Israel to neglect internal economic and social
problems, and the appalling inequality of Israeli society. By ending occupation
of Jewish land by the enemies, Israel will be able to put more resources to
build prosperity and social equality.
5. Reversing Israel's isolation on the world
stage - International anti-Semites will never stop hating Jews! Only a
strong, independent and self-assertive Jewish state will be able shut them
down. It was seen after the “Six Day War” and the Yom Kippur war, when even
traditional European anti-Semites had began respecting Jews. But it did not
last long as Israel did not consolidate its victories, only squandered them
under the pressure of its trans-Atlantic ‘friend’!
