South Africa’s biggest forum. Discuss, discover, and connect with thousands of members.
I dont know but he will not be told what to do by Obama and wont be told what to do by terrorists.
I dont know what the solution is but Hamas and the rest of them are already gearing up for the next war.
Maybe this time Bibi wont stop like he did before and go in and get rid of Hamas for good? Then perhaps peace can start.
Guaranteed but Israel is finding friends like India. Jordan. Etc etc
Obama can turn his back but he is going soon and the damage he has done will be undone. Problem is by then Iran will be nuclear and Isis will have grown

The usually self-assured biologist, author and atheist Richard Dawkins expressed his bewilderment at the disproportionate amount of Nobel prizes won by Jews in a recent interview with the New Republic, saying he is “intrigued by” the “phenomenally high” number of Jewish laureates.
Addressing the controversy surrounding a Tweet he wrote during the conferment of Nobel prizes earlier this month, Dawkins offered up something of a mea culpa, stating: “That was unfortunate. I should have compared religion with religion and compared Islam not with Trinity College but with Jews, because the number of Jews who have won Nobel Prizes is phenomenally high.”
Continuing, he said: “Race does not come into it. It is pure religion and culture. Something about the cultural tradition of Jews is way, way more sympathetic to science and learning and intellectual pursuits than Islam. That would have been a fair comparison. Ironically, I originally wrote the tweet with Jews and thought, That might give offense. And so I thought I better change it.”
Asked why he thought it is that Jews have won so many Nobel Prizes, Dawkins was forthright with his uncertainty.
“I haven’t thought it through. I don’t know. But I don’t think it is a minor thing; it is colossal. I think more than 20 percent of Nobel Prizes have been won by Jews.”
According to the Jewish Virtual Library, since the Nobel was first awarded in 1901 approximately 193 of the 855 honorees have been Jewish (22%). Jews make up less than 0.2% of the global population.
This year 6 of 12 laureates were Jewish. The 13th laureate, for the Nobel Peace Prize, was awarded to an organization and not an individual.

Worldwide or you mean because of the one we can't mention ?
They thought they could unseat him like the Arab spring.......sorry this ain't that place.
Where are you getting this info from? Who were they going to replace him with?
A liberal moderate that would kiss his rear end.
The Jews are not those people.
Well roughly half of Israelis (including Jews) don't think so.
How many of those were Arabs ???
Well roughly half of Israelis (including Jews) don't think so.
Then again Bibi won. It'snot an all or nothing issue.
Not sure, do they release the demographics of voting results?
I don't know.
Point is the Arabs hate him the Jews love him well actually anyone that wants Israel to survive loves him.
A soldier that fought and nearly died for his country
So did McCain didn't he?
As far as I know yes. He was a POW
Israel will never go soft, learnt that lesson the hard way with golda meir, who almost single handedly destroyed israel,
If carter didnt step in and help israel, ww3 would have got going in1975
Not sure, do they release the demographics of voting results?
I don't think they do.
But I'm pretty sure the 13 seats won by Arab parties were voted for by Arabs
That's quite a solid deduction but the Arab parties make up only 11%?
