Quote of the Day (qotd)

In the acceptable codes of the Middle East, concepts such as 'national pride' have a very important value. You don't have to provoke or incite, but there must not be an attitude of groveling or self disparagement...
I have seen some ambassadors who identify with the place in which they serve so much that they keep trying to explain the other side. This is the wrong approach. The time of groveling is over, we will not look for pretexts for conflict or friction, but we will not turn the other cheek...every thing have a response, this is the policy I demand of you ambassadors. The ambassadors must have good relations and respect the hosting party, and should not look for provocations, but we will not tolerate insults and abuse.


--- Foreign Minister Avigdor Lieberman

  2. unfortunately there is a good chance he might be on his way to jail, if they ever finish the indictment against him (it sounded serious, but I guess it could turn out to be nothing).

    but somebody like him - for sure.

  3. Of course all the lefties in the media have criticized him for saying this, but he is so right. Problem is although he is officially FM, not many people take too much notice of him and what he says including I'm sorry to say Bibi. I have this bad feeling, that we are going to wake up one day to find that Livni has finally decided to join Bibi, and she will be back as FM, undoing all Lieberman's good work. Of course she said that he undid "her good work".
