    The survey, which was conducted amongst a sample of 500 respondents, also showed that although women in leading political positions have a positive impact on Israelis, 40 percent still prefer a man to run the politics of the state and 77 percent do not see a woman in the position of Minister of Defense in the coming decade. However, 60 percent believe a woman could be President in that same time frame.

    In addition, 60 percent do not think a woman can be head of the Mossad; a third do not believe a woman will be finance minister in the near future; and close to half of the respondents do not see it a necessity to advance the place of woman in the Israeli government.

    Yeah. but Tzipi Livni is not able to compete with what Golda Meir was and I am not comparing her to Yael, Devorah and Yehudit! She is anti frum and that is why she would not have success in fighting anyone!

    Men are good at starting wars. Women are more open minded and can reach the same goals without all the collateral damage. We are dealing with a society where 93% of the population is out for blood.
