Netanyahu: We are at War

Reports say at least 545 Israelis have been injured so far in the Hamas attack, according to the country’s health ministry. The attack was launched with thousands of rockets fired on the fiftieth anniversary of the Yom Kippur surprise attack on the anniversary of the 1973 War, a surprise attack by Israel’s Arab neighbors which began on October 6, 1973. Iranian backed Hamas again launched an attack on the Sabbath…

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu responded this morning:

“We are at war, not an operation, not rounds, but at war.

“This morning, Hamas opened a murderous surprise attack against the state of Israel and its citizens.

“We’re in it since early morning. I convened heads of security, I instructed first to clear the villages from terrorists that infiltrated.

“This is taking place now.

“In addition I ordered a wide call for reservists to fight back with might and scope that the enemy did not know.

“The enemy will pay a price he did not know (until now).

“In the meantime, I call on all citizens of Israel to strictly obey the instructions of the army and the instructions of the home command.

“We are in a war and we will win it.”

The Israel Defense Forces have launched Operation “Swords of Iron” against Hamas…

Israeli PM Officially Concedes Defeat to Netanyahu

Israeli Prime Minister Yair Lapid has conceded electoral defeat to Benjamin Netanyahu. According to his official spokesperson, Lapid congratulated Netanyahu on his win and promised an “an orderly transfer of power“. While the ‘triple B’ plan may have failed for Boris, it appears it’s time to Bring Back Bibi…

Netanyahu will be disappointed to learn that today Downing Street told the foreign press that “It has been looked at. There are no plans to move the British embassy in Israel from Tel Aviv.” During his leadership campaign he told Conservative Friends of Israel there was a “very strong case” for moving the embassy and formally recognising Jerusalem as the capital city of Israel. What’s changed?

Netanyahu Misses Coalition Forming Deadline

Benjamin Netanyahu’s Tuesday deadline to form a coalition government after Israel’s latest indecisive election has been missed, meaning the leader of the second-largest party will now be given the opportunity to find a way of kicking him out. The blow to Bibi’s hopes of clinging on to power came from the country’s president, who has now invited Yair Lapid, leader of the second-largest Yesh Atid party, to form a coalition – despite having won just 17 of the parliament’s 120 seats. Netanyahu has been in office since 2009, his rival now has 28 days to eject him from power…

Netanyahu Hoping to Cling On After Israeli Election

Israel’s election outcome once again hangs in the balance, as Netanyahu’s coalition fell just short of an overall majority. The right-wing group of parties fell seven seats short of the Knesset’s required 61 majority, however a new smaller party – formed by a former Netanyahu loyalist – is on course to win seven seats. It has not explicitly declared which side it will support, though is Bibi’s best hope of staying on…

If Netenyahu can win over Yamina and its leader Naftali Bennett, he will secure a twelth continuous year in power. Last night Netanyahu told supporters “It’s clear most Israelis are right-wing, and want a strong, stable right-wing government”. B’hatzlacha!
