Yep. Mofaz knew he would be booted and he also knows that Iran cannot be allowed to develop nuclear weapons and they are getting too close.
Any Israeli that thinks about 1939 and what followed knows that you can't sit around and hope for the best, you must act.
Voluntarily boarding a train bound for the gas chamber is not acting in your best interests.
When the Jews of Israel say, "Never again", they mean it.
The liberal Jews in America are not really Jews nor Americans, anymore than liberals of any stripe are really American.
The liberals give up on America when they choose communism, and the majority do.
Well yes for the most part. Others are that becuase they don't know the difference. The Jewish friends I have are very much union people and always vote accordingly. ..even if they really might not want to. Their job security is the priority, and though aware of Israel their distant from the overall culture.
I'm so glad BiBi did this and Mofaz took the opportunity he was presented with. Whatever the motives for each it was a good move with how things are staged now in the whole of the ME.
However, one must keep their eye on Russia and China, they raise their heads at the most critical moments when it concerns the ME.
