Point 2: scaremongering like this at the last minute suggests full-on panic...

Please keep us posted...

Did he learn nothing from his visit with Boner & Co.?

The usual Puke and Bagger tactics.

1) Encouraging the extreme right to commit acts of violence against Arab citizens at or en route to polling places
2) Delegitimizing the result should he lose

Both are hallmarks of fascism.

I was thinking the same thing.

more like a dictator than the leader of an alleged "democracy". His earlier speech in which he gave voice to his paranoia that "Scandinavians are spending millions" to "topple" him was very telling in his word choice. The use of "topple" usually refers more to dictators and despots than democratic leaders subject to the vote of the people. He reminds me of pubs here who seem to feel entitled to votes, who believe that they are OWED those votes, and how dare anyone vote against them and deny the greatness of their greatness to the nation. Gah.

warmongering hater be any more fucking obvious? He reminds me of the pubs here who complain about "minority" voters costing them elections (I'm looking at YOU, Mitt!), refusing to recognize that those "minorities" are as much Americans, and have as much right to vote, as those they consider more "majority." Not that Bibi and his party even recognize the humanity of Arab-Israelis or any Arabs, for that matter, considering that their platform calls openly for the permanent "cleansing" of such "vermin". Gee, where have I heard THAT kind of talk before, Likud? I cannot believe they cannot even begin to see any irony in such openly racist statements. Because you and your people have suffered untold persecution and loss doesn't give you the right to do the same to others.

It was a terrible day, indeed, when the raving racist lunatic Meir Kahane types ("I want all Arabs out of Israel, I want THEM ALL OUT, I don't care how we do it as long as it's done&quot began to move from the fringe into the actual government and society. Sad, indeed.

Apparently, he's fucked.
And he did it to himself.

Wow, that is fucking depressing. I would have bet money that sort of desperation showed a sure loss.

You mean someone believed he'd allow a Palestinian state?

Does he want them to just not participate?

"They hate it when brown people vote."

Mizrahim/Sephardic/Beta-Israel Jews (who make up most of the Jewish population in Israel 52.4%) have darker skins than most Arabs.

In fact, Beta-Israel (Jews from Ethiopia) would be called "black" in the USA.

There are many, many problems with what Bibi said, but nothing to do with melanin content of skin.

educate some on DU.

They just keep repeated the same blood-libels even when corrected.

Such should not be tolerated among progressives.
