Netanyahu: Likud is on Road Back to Power<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

Excerpts:<\/strong><\/p>\n

“Netanyahu swept to a comfortable victory in the Likud chairmanship race, as his main rival Foreign Minister Silvan Shalom conceded defeat in a phone conversation with him…” <\/strong><\/p>\n

“The vote count stood at 98 percent on Tuesday morning, with results falling within Channel 1 margin of error: Netanyahu’s lead stood at 44.6 percent to Shalom’s 33 percent. Feiglin received 15 percent while Katz got 8.7 percent.<\/strong>”<\/p>\n

“Feiglin’s surprisingly strong showing<\/strong> prompted many outside the party to criticize the Likud’s turn to the right. Finance Minister Ehud Olmert, a member of Prime Minister Ariel Sharon’s Kadima party, told Israel Radio the Likud had become an extreme right-wing, uncompromising party.” <\/p>\n

“Olmert called Netanyahu the ‘imprisoned boy’ caught between MK Uzi Landau’s and Feiglin’s extremism – ‘But not really a prisoner,’ Olmert continued, ‘because [Netanyahu] identifies with them.'”<\/p>\n

Feiglin: Victory for Jewish Leadership<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

Excerpts:<\/strong><\/p>\n

“Likud activist Moshe Feiglin<\/strong>, who took third place in what many considered a surprising showing at the Likud primaries, declared Tuesday that the results showed ‘that the public understood that there existed a Jewish alternative [in national politics].’ <\/strong><\/p>\n

“Considering his showing a victory for Jewish leadership, Feiglin said, ‘When we first ran, we got only 4%. Now it’s up to 15 and the next time we will double that rate.’ <\/strong><\/p>\n

“He continued to say that he was glad that the Jewish agenda received widespread support and blasted members within his party that said that Feiglin’s vies were unrepresentative of the Likud’s agenda.”<\/p>\n

“Former prime minister Ehud Barak said the result was good for all parties. ‘A Bibi-Landau-Feiglin trio clearly states what the Likud represents. This clarity will result in better results for the Likud,’ he said.<\/strong>” <\/p>\n
