The latest pre-election poll in Israel has Benjamin Netanyahu's Likud Party extending its lead over the currently ruling Kadima Party.
Broadcast on Israel's Channel One News on Tuesday night, the results of the poll predicted Likud winning 37 Knesset seats to just 25 for Kadima in the February 10 general election.
Ehud Barak's Labor Party fell to just 7 seats in the latest poll.
The poll showed Likud and other right-of-center parties winning a commanding bloc of 68 seats in the next Knesset, more than enough for Netanyahu to form a stable majority coalition.

Since Obama will likely be unwilling to confront Iran, it will be nice to have someone like Netanyahu in power to act as a check on Iranian ambitions.

Thank God , Israel will need the strong leadership that Bibi will bring.

While other countries are picking tough guys, we get stuck with a wimpy Chicago stockyard chicken plucker. Unreal.

Bibi is great on defense and the war on terror, does anybody know where he stands on economic issues? I fear that Israel will have to depend on Israel in the future because of our incoming Administration.

The Labor Party is being wiped out. Kadima which is a collection of empty suits, is losing big. Israel is turning Right.

As Finance Minister in the last Likud government, he inaugurated significant free market reforms. These need to continue and Israel has to go stop the senseless giveaway of strategic land to the Arabs before she faces destruction.

Unfortunately, no. The Israel election isn’t until Feb 10 — so any action before Obama takes office would have to be taken by Olmert.
