Amir Peretz Hopes to Oust Barak from Labor Leadership

Knesset Member Amir Peretz has called on Labor leader Ehud Barak to resign or be prepared to be ousted.

Cabinet ministers say they are willing to “pay the price” set by Hamas terrorists for the return of kidnapped IDF soldier Gilad Shalit.

The newly-elected Kadima Knesset faction is leaning towards sitting in the opposition and “leaving” Netanyahu with a nationalist government.

A London-based Arabic-language newspaper calls to boycott any Israeli government that includes the Yisrael Beiteinu party led by Avigdor Lieberman.

Media myth: The vote results are “a swing to the right.” The truth: religious and nationalist parties have been the plurality for nearly 30 years.

Hamas poured cold water on reports that a truce and release of Gilad Shalit are imminent. The soldier continues to be a pawn in the hands of Hamas.

Israeli-Turkish relations worsened Saturday with Ankara’s criticism of Israel’s election results and an IDF officer’s criticism of Turkey.

Secondary explosions in tunnels the IDF attacked prove that arms smuggling has resumed. Munitions factories also were bombed after rocket attacks.
