Lieberman: My critics are losers

FM lashes out at political opponents, highlighting coalition's strength.

Foreign Minister Avigdor Lieberman responded defiantly on Monday to criticism over statements he made Thursday that were interpreted as threatening Syrian President Bashar Assad. Lieberman created waves when he told an audience at Bar-Ilan University that Assad should know that in a war with Israel, he would not only lose militarily, but would also lose his control of Syria. MKs from the Left responded by calling for Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu to fire Lieberman for igniting potential war with Syria.

At a meeting of Israel Beiteinu’s faction in the Knesset, Lieberman read aloud the party’s platform, which denounces the approach of trading land for peace with Syria and instead preaches peace for peace. A year after the February 10, 2009 election, Lieberman said his party’s diplomatic platform had become that of Israel. “All those who come to us with complaints about the policies of Israel and Israel Beiteinu are losers who lost the election,” Lieberman told the press. “The people who won the election are satisfied. Our policy is that we keep our word and our credibility. Those who come to us with complaints about our credibility are invited to read our platform online.”

Asked who he had in mind specifically when talking about losers, Lieberman told The Jerusalem Post that he was referring to “all my critics in the media and in politics.” Asked whether Labor chairman Ehud Barak, who has criticized him lately, was included in that category, he said “Barak certainly didn’t win the election.”

Lieberman's critics are a bunch of losers. I think he's done a good job in his post and he doesn't allow Israel to be verbally trampled on by her enemies. I can't believe that some people are making such a big deal out of his comments. To me, it shows that the critics and enemies are nothing but hypocrites as it is alright when someone else lashes out at Israel, but they cry "Woe is me!!" when Israel lashes out every now and then.

I think Lieberman needs to keep telling it like it is. If Syria would launch a war based on just comments from the Israeli FM, then that just shows their evil motives for what they really are and that is that they planned on attacking them anyway.

We all know there is no genuine peace initiative with the Islamics. All they shoot for is the destruction of Israel, but God has promised that won't happen.
