| Opinion: Livni's campaign: be the Foreign Affairs Minister but act like you have nothing to do with the current government All the recent statement from Kadima leader, Tzipi Livni, sound as if she is from the opposition and not number 2 in the government. Foreign Affairs Minister, Tzipi Livni, who is also the deputy prime minister and the one who replaces him in absence, is sounding more and more like she is actually from the parliamentary opposition. Probably her campaign consultants have discovered that Kadima's performance has head of the government is so poor in the eyes of the public that she must do everything she can to act as if she had nothing to do with the current government. Their hope is that the public is so short sighted or stupid that it will not to hold Livni and all of Kadima responsible for the string of failed policies and mistake that have been made in the last 3 years. | |

| Netanyahu visits the Golan Heights: Netanyahu visits the Golan Heights: "We're here to say to everyone that we will not withdraw from the Golan" December 22, 2008 Likud chairman, Benjamin Netanyahu, and other Likud members paid today a visit to the Golan Heights. This visit comes in contrast to Prime Minister, Ehud Olmert's, trip to Turkey to try and seal a last minute breakthrough in the peace process with Syria. There was growing criticism for Olmert's actions as it seemed he is willing to go to great lengths to try and better his "historical legacy" on the expense of Israel's security and without a mandate from the public and Knesset. Netanyahu commented that "a Likud government will never withdraw from such a vital strategic asset". He also commented about the recent voices from the Kadima cabinet to take a hard stance on Hamas: "The people of Israel expect a leadership that will take care of their security 365 days a year and not politicians who shrug their responsibility after years of failed polices by suddenly voicing fierce comments". | |
