#6  Thank goodness, g(r)omgoru. I was afraid it would continue like the Sicarii during the Roman siege of Jerusalem, continuing to assassinate their foes even with the enemy at the gates.

#5  #3 Yamina leader Naftali Bennett surrendered to pressure from the Right to not form a government with Ra'am (United Arab List) head Mansour Abbas on Thursday, telling Yesh Atid leader Yair Lapid the idea was off the table.

#3  Thanks, TW.

If Bibi really is forced out of office after four completely unnecessary elections, he’s going to take care of business first.

I think the situation have changed a bit. I think, our political "elites" has been reminded that there are things more important than their personal grudges (based, IMO, on the fact that he's just batter at the game than they are).

#2  Good to know, g(r)omgoru. Thank you for keeping us updated on the situation in the midst of everything going on over there. You and your son and all Israel are in my prayers.

Actually Hamas already offered cease-fire - they usually do after exhausting their rocket stocks. However, this time: Israel rejects Hamas truce offer; ministers vote to intensify Gaza strikes
