Rightists Around World Upset at Landau
Excerpts;
“Landau explained that he decided to quit because he had no chance of winning and because Netanyahu offered him a series of commitments that reassured him that he would be loyal to right-wing ideology if elected prime minister. Netanyahu and Landau, who studied together at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, will present their 17-point agreement in a press conference in Tel Aviv on Wednesday.”
“In the deal, Netanyahu promised never to withdraw unilaterally from settlements, to bring any major decision to a Likud faction vote or a national referendum and to appoint Landau to head a ministerial committee that would help Gush Katif evacuees. Netanyahu would not commit to keeping the Likud out of a government led by Prime Minister Ariel Sharon, but Landau said he believed Netanyahu would keep the Likud in the opposition if it loses the March 28 election.”
“The agreement between Landau and Netanyahu was reached at 5 a.m. Monday after negotiations at the Tel Aviv Hilton and the home of a Tel Aviv businessman who is friends with both men. Netanyahu’s campaign manager Yoav Horowitz and Landau’s bureau chief Shimon Gafsou drew up the document.”
Uzi, when do you learn that there are differences in moral integrity issues between you and the likes of Bibi, etc? Any agreement which they make is useless for their credo is; Agreements were made to be broken! MB
Feiglin: Voters Will Come Back When Likud Returns to Roots
Excerpts:
“Moshe Feiglin, candidate for head of the Likud party, said on Tuesday that the party will attract voters when it ‘readopts its ideological identity.’ Once that happens, he said, ‘voters will ‘know how to distinguish between us and Kadima.’”
“‘Polls and lies don’t interest me,’ Feiglin said. ‘I think that my candidacy most clearly represents Likud members. I’m sure that my ideas will win, if not now, than some time in the future.’”
“Feiglin said that Landau’s decision to withdraw from the race shows that only a candidate with Jewish religious faith can win the race. ‘Only a candidate who [fears] G-d,’ he said.”
