  1. Lex, you are hitting a false note when you say you will travel to any part of the world to talk to someone and in the name of love for the human community etc. It is irresponsible to say you would put your life on the line to travel into a war zone per se and get yourself killed to do an interview that you could do much better with both parties in safe places. You are doing a great job, but be humble. When you talk like you would risk your life to do an interview, it looks cinema. Be yourself but don't be your dream self.

  2. Prime Minister Netanyahu, Israel did indeed send a team to help the Turkish people and the man leading it reminded everyone that Israel sent the biggest team of any other regional country and it was the first to arrive. What am I saying here? You are helping others, but don't pat yourself on the back so much. Don't brag about what great things you are doing when it looks like the world is coming apart with every new military action that takes place in your part of the world. Prime Minister Netanyahu, you are a consummate politician in a part of the world that most people see as on fire. We know how many good things Israel has done, is doing and will do for the world, but Lex is right in saying you have a lot of detractors. You have to own up to the fact that the Israeli/Palestinian luke-warm war is eroding all sympathy for your great people and the people of Palestine and for yourself. This eternal conflict that erupts more often than the world's most active volcano has caved-in support for you, your government and for Israel as a nation and it is time to find a solution so that both of your great nations can live in peace and harmony.
