    Yair Lapid, the party’s No. 2 figure, told a press conference Wednesday that though his party “did not win in this round, I respect the voters.” He said his party will “embitter” Netanyahu’s life from the opposition.

    The Blue and White party, headed by former army chief of staff Benny Gantz, drew even with Netanyahu’s Likud party, but the incumbent prime minister is poised to form a government with his larger bloc of religious and nationalist allies.

    Gantz says his party has “founded a true alternative rule to Netanyahu.”

    Lapid will embitter no one but himself. A piece of trash son of the scum of the earth Tommy Lapid, Yemach Shemo.

    They’re a flash in the pan enjoying their moment in the sun. This party is the bastard son of the old Labor party and will very likely suffer the same ignominious fate. Decent people have had their fill of immoral politicians foisting their decadent “progressive’ social agenda upon us, not to mention their genuflecting to the Europeans, who never miss a chance to screw us. For those that would argue that Netanyahu is an equally sleazy politician, I would paraphrase FDR , “he may be a Scoundrel, but he’s our scoundrel”

    Apparently the sore-loser crybaby syndrome has spread to Israel from leftist America.
