re: #37 Dark_Falcon

But Shas does not hold the offices of Prime, Defense, or Foreign Minister. No would Benjamin Netanyahu ever sign on to a campaign of mass murder. Shas is a problem, but they can’t force Netanyahu to go to war: The Labor party and Kadima would vote to keep Netanyahu as PM before they’d let Shas demand that kind of war vote.

Your analogy is false, and is the kind of shock value you typically go in for.

Bibi is going to this guy to seek his blessings on war with Iran. Why is that being ignored?

Netanyahu has contacted Rabbi Yosef, head of the Shas party, to try and muster support for an attack on Iran. Reports in the Israeli media say that the Israeli premier has sent the head of the National Security Council, Yaakov Amidror, to meet Chief Rabbi Ovadia Yosef, leader of the ultra-Orthodox Shas party, to garner support.

So if this guy is calling on god to destroy Iran (he said Iranian regime and the Iran (all of it)) did he give his ‘blessings’?
