“It is always a meritorious deed to get hold of a Palestinian’s possessions”—The code of Jewish Law revised and updated

Benjamin Netanyahu’s re-election makes him the longest serving prime minister in Israel’s history. His 20% margin of victory (30 Knesset seats to 24 for his nearest opponent) underlines the mass base of his consolidation of power. Most critical commentators cite Netanyahu’s racist pronouncements; his rejection of any two state solution and his overt appeal for a mass Jewish voter turnout to counteract the ‘droves of Arab voters’ for his electoral victories.

The Power of Israel over the United States  
There have been times when history has played tricks with man and...has magnified the features of essentially small persons into a parody of greatness.

Dozens of Congress members have committed to skipping Netanyahu's planned speech to the US Congress following an on-line petition of protest.

Benjamin Netanyahu is an Existential Threat to Too Much of the World: And now he wants to speak to his war crime corroborators: U.S Congress! Baby-bib Bibi is brazen as are his blatant war crimes that were carried out this summer in Palestine—as many people already know.

In proposing that Congress Members boycott or walk out on Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's planned speech to Congress, expected to push for sanctions if not war on Iran, activists are drawing on actions engaged in by college students in recent years, as they have boycotted or walked out on or disrupted speeches by Israeli soldiers and officials on U.S. campuses. Netanyahu's noodle-headed move—oblivious, apparently, to the U.S. government's effective evolution into a term-limited monarchy—may provide a boost to both the movement to free Palestine and the movement to prevent a war on Iran.
