"Kadima will represent Israel and will determine its identity as a Jewish state, without doing so by selling the state to Haredim," she said.
In September, Livni won a Kadima primary and replaced outgoing Prime Minister Ehud Olmert as leader of the centrist party. But not managing to recruit enough parties to join a coalition, she was forced to go to general elections instead of taking over from Olmert as premier as well.
Livni said she chose not to accede to the coalition demands of the ultra-Orthodox Shas party, saying "I refuse to pawn Israel's future for the prime minister's chair."

Israel - Foreign Ministe Livni is a big fool, few weeks ago she was begging Shas - an Orthodox party to join her in order continue being the replacement for the dog called Minister Ehud Olmert, there was no way on earth to establish her coalition with out the Haraidy parties, so who is she fooling? Yes ! she is upset at them so she is venting her anger and frustration in the in the open, like a first grader.
On the other hand we know that nothing happens in this world unless Hashem is making it happen, this is an obvias message for all of us Shomer Shabbos Jews
that we have to be better connected to god who created us in a better manor than we have bee connected till now, how do we know this? because she vowed not to "sell" Israel to ultra-Orthodox , Lev Melochim B'Yad Hashem, Hashem is using her to tell the ultra-Orthodox , watch out, if not Chas V'sholom your place might not be in Eretz Yisroel, its frightening and scary, who knows what in waiting for us, if one follows the news, it was reported THIS WEEK that, Iran has now produced roughly enough nuclear material to make, with added purification, a single ATOM BOMB, according to nuclear experts analyzing the latest report from global atomic inspectors, all they want to do with it is to wipe off Israel from the map, Chas Vsholom, it might sound a little heavy but its not funny. So since Hashem loves us he is tell us Orthodox Yiden, please come back to me with Torah and Mitzvos and I will redeem you soon from this long dark Golus, in the very near future.

Maybe we can move to Bahrain, the King invited the ex-pats back, maybe he will take other Jews in as well. The country is less anti-semitic than Israel, which has neo-nazi gangs, and Russian mobsters.

Livni is not lying. Kadima will not sell Ertez Yisroel to the Charadim. They will give it away to the arabs, yemach shemam.

torah is important. but all these guys do is take take take.
I do believe that, both in the USA and Eretz Yisroel, if you take and not pay taxes then your vote should be worth less.

I for one wish the religious parties had more to contribute. All I seem to hear from them is "give us money in exchange for our vote." This is very base and selfish and uninspiring.

Maybe the way to be better connected to g-d is not to be as materialstic as we've been and trying to always live in a better "manor." Maybe it would be better to live in a better "manner" (and to learn how to spell also!)

Right- a Yissaschar and Zevulun relationship right? The only difference is that Yissaschar probably never looked down his nose at Zevulun and refered to him as a dog or a pig...Maybe he even said thank once in a while.

what's wrong with all you people - listen to yourselves
Correct me if I'm wrong:
1) Livni tried to incorporate Shas, but the would only join her coalition for a HUGE amount $$$ - which caused to her to pull the plug on her plan.
2) Don't quote Dayan, Be Gurion etc... unless you quote them fully and in context. Both men supported a kollel system - JUST NOT THE SYSTEM THAT EXISTS today (it's changed significantly)
3)Start getting used to the idea of a Palestinian state with land and Jerusalem as it's capital - don't matter WHO wins the election in Israel, it's gonna happen - because it's the ROTZON of HASHEM

Bahrain's ambassador the the United States is Houda Nonoo, a Jewish woman. Bahrain's embassy is on the same street, on the same block, as Israel's embassy.

Do not sell it to sell us. Just keep having 1.3 children per couple. We're very patient. We waited 2000 years, if chas vichlilah Moshiach does not come first, we can wait till all the frei Israeli's move to California or New York. We can wait until we outvote you 10 to 1. Unless you're bent on giving the country to the Arabs first.
