The public is jaded. They think that on the eve of the elections (Netanyahu) is doing things just to capture headlines.

The right wing in Israel will be the clear beneficiaries of these (Palestinian) elections.

I just think it's a great capture,

You would be an idiot not to think he did it to evade capture . . . He is an outlaw, he believes the law doesn't apply to him.

The main event is to leverage aid and to make sure the U.S. is not alone.

He has basically got to freeze the peace process to woo back alienated right-wing voters.
