Many of those commenting here seem to be more in love with their own words and prejudices than they actually care about Israel.

The U.S., the UK, France, China, Russia, Switzerland and the Iranian negotiators are trying to make nuclear war less likely. Most of the world is grateful.

Netanyahu has said that there will be no Palestinian state while he is in office. Most of the world condemns this.

Is this good for Israel?

If you want to protect Israel, do something about Netanyahu and his followers.

Bibi is not the only obstacle to a cooperative two-state peace, but he and his adherents are the greatest and most immediate obstacle. Their removal from power is necessary if Israel is to prosper and survive. Hopefully, Obama will play hard ball, and, hopefully, this will successfully bring peace and restore Israel's honor.

Who is celebrating Netanyahu's victory? Likud, whose adherents want to own all the land between the river and the sea and want all the Palestinians to leave, and Hamas, whose adherents want to destroy Israel and to eliminate most Jews.

Who should be mourning and afraid? All Israelis and Palestinians, who want to continue living, to raise their children and to prosper.

Four days ago, I wrote to Israeli President Rivlin:

Dear President Rivlin,

Please, ask Mr. Herzog to try to form a government.

In the near term, the health of Israel's economy depends your request and on Mr. Herzog’s success at complying. If Mr. Netanyahu is allowed to form the new government, most of the world’s nations, perhaps including America, will gradually stop trading with Israel.

Long term, Israel's very survival and, perhaps world peace, are at stake, too. If Mr. Netanyahu once again becomes Prime Minister, America will come to realize that it doesn't need Israel, and it will stop its military and political support. If, as a desperate last measure, Israel turns to threatening to use its atomic bombs, it may very well bring on widespread nuclear war.

Sincerely,

Joel A. Levitt

jaredbirns, thanks for unmasking David Hazony. Netanyahu did it for himself.

I just wrote to Israeli President Rivlin at president@president.gov.il:

I urge all who want to help Israel to write to President Rivlin.
