If we had a populist president who didn't alienate so many persuadable voters, who took full advantage of a strong economy, and who had the political cunning displayed by Modi or Benjamin Netanyahu or Viktor Orban, the liberal belief in a hidden left-of-center mandate might be exposed as a fond delusion.

Netanyahu is pressured easily, gets into a panic, and loses his senses... to run a country like Israel a leader needs to have reason and judgment and nerves of steel, two traits he does not have.

My associates and I always allied with Netanyahu in complicated political maneuvers.

Until I was justice minister, Netanyahu was proud of stopping laws to change the judiciary.

Netanyahu wants to make me and my party out as small, lame and uninfluential.

/images/quoteimage/ayelet-shaked-71188.jpg

I won't let the grudge Netanyahu and those who surround him have against me hurt the country.

I don't pick the leader of another party. Likud picked Netanyahu.

Abu Mazen has no more hope for Netanyahu's approach. He's searching for a way to establish the Palestinian state. He doesn't want a militarized struggle with Israel.

Arabs don't have to be the victims of the Jewish war between Lieberman and Netanyahu.

/images/quoteimage/ayman-odeh-71442.jpg

Netanyahu personally is leading the campaign against the Arabs.

/images/quoteimage/ayman-odeh-71467.jpg

According to Netanyahu, he should rule like a Caesar, and the Knesset should be run by the tyranny of the majority.

To many American Jews, it is a truism that Barack Obama was the anti-Israel president. It was Mr. Obama who signed the Iran deal, which Israel portrayed as a mortal danger. It was Mr. Obama whose most contentious relationship with a foreign leader was with Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.

In my office in Jerusalem, there's an ancient seal. It's a signet ring of a Jewish official from the time of the Bible. The seal was found right next to the Western Wall, and it dates back 2,700 years, to the time of King Hezekiah. Now, there's a name of the Jewish official inscribed on the ring in Hebrew. His name was Netanyahu.

I do not wish to slander his name, I think Netanyahu ran the country well but his time is up.

/images/quoteimage/benny-gantz-84206.jpg

I will not sit with Netanyahu in the government!

Netanyahu is no king, his government sows division and incitement.

Netanyahu has taken on the toughest job in the State of Israel, and as someone who truly gives of himself, I consider him a patriot.

/images/quoteimage/benny-gantz-84214.jpg

Would the Benjamin Netanyahu of the eve of the election want me to get hurt? Regretfully, I would say so.

/images/quoteimage/benny-gantz-84225.jpg

I think that at his core, Benjamin Netanyahu is not corrupt.

/images/quoteimage/benny-gantz-84291.jpg

Netanyahu needs to leave Israel's political life.

/images/quoteimage/chuck-norris-154867.jpg

I watched Prime Minister Netanyahu's speech before Congress, and I saw a man who loves his country with all his heart and soul. I also saw a strong leader, which is absolutely crucial for the safety of the Israeli people.

If there were an election today, Netanyahu would win. Yet, his standing in the polls is also a reflection of the weakness of Ehud Olmert, the current prime minister - who stands at 2 percent in a recent poll - and the enduring weaknesses of the Labor Party.

I'm no wealthier than Bibi Netanyahu or Arik Sharon. I don't feel that I'm more hedonistic than Ehud Olmert, or Yitzhak Rabin or Shimon Peres.

Benjamin Netanyahu seems to avoid any initiative.

Do I trust Yasser Arafat? Of course not. Why should I? Why should anyone trust a politician, whether Shimon Peres, Ariel Sharon, Bill Clinton, Richard Nixon, Lyndon Johnson, Benjamin Netanyahu, George W. Bush, or Yasser Arafat?

Israel needs to separate from Netanyahu in order to separate from the Palestinians.

Unfortunately, the diplomatic destruction Netanyahu is causing will lead Israel to lose its Jewish majority and become a binational state. This unfortunate fact is something no law can hide.

There is no difference between me and Netanyahu in reading the threat of Iran. There is no daylight between us on this issue at all.

Netanyahu is beholden to the extreme Right.

I want to see Netanyahu speak to the Congress and speak to the American people about the real situation in Israel, and let me just say, I stand with Israel 100 percent, and I will never waiver on that.

Certainly I have more in common with Bernie Sanders than differences. I think if you had to look for differences, you would find them in foreign policy, where my campaign is perhaps more critical - I would say definitely more critical - of funding for regimes like that of the Netanyahu government, which are clearly war criminals.

Prime Minister Netanyahu has, as Minister Livni knows, has been my friend for over 30 years. We drive each other crazy. But he has truly been a personal friend for well over 30 years. He acknowledged this.

I met with Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu in Israel, visited our allies in the Arab Gulf, traveled to Tunisia and Iraq, met with President Petro Poroshenko in Ukraine, and visited our allies in Germany, France, and the United Kingdom.

Can I just make a special request in the magic lamp? Can we get, like, Netanyahu or, like, Putin in for 48 hours, you know, head of the United States?

Kimberly Guilfoyle

To put it simply, my support of Israel will be just as strong the day after Prime Minister Netanyahu's address as it is today.

Benjamin Netanyahu has made the official policy of the Israeli government the two-state solution, at a time when he had opposition from many quarters. That is his official position. He remains publicly committed to it, but not just publicly; also in diplomacy, totally committed to moving swiftly toward that solution.

Don't believe in Netanyahu.

I want every Israeli child, secular and religious, to know about Moses, about Maimonides, about Yoni Netanyahu, about Hannah Senesh and S. Y. Agnon. I want every child to know how to read the Bible, and know how to make Kiddush.

Naftali Bennett

Netanyahu supports - and he truly does support - building a Palestinian state within Israel.

Naftali Bennett

I have not one shred of anger in my heart against Netanyahu or his wife.

Naftali Bennett

Netanyahu's raison d'etre is to save Israel from Iran. That is it. That is his mission in the most profound sense. I have seen it up close.

Naftali Bennett

Putin could no more survive returning Crimea to Ukraine than Bibi Netanyahu could survive giving East Jerusalem back to Jordan.

The reality is that we only have one person whom the public sees as appropriate to be prime minister, and that's a shame. I think that if there were more, it would be better for everyone, including Netanyahu.

Netanyahu must mend fences with Obama.

Iran may or may not be the existential threat to Israel that Netanyahu insists it is. But a lessening of U.S. support for Israel certainly would be. With an indifferent America, Israel would become a lonely, frightening place.

As the crisis in Syria grows and the humanitarian tragedy becomes more clear, I appreciated Prime Minister Netanyahu's perspective on the changes and volatility in the region.

This past year has been very turbulent for the Middle East, and my conversation with Prime Minister Netanyahu strengthened my belief that we need to remain vigilant in our support of our critical ally.

I think that Netanyahu is a bit intimidated of and afraid of President Trump.

If we had a populist president who didn't alienate so many persuadable voters, who took full advantage of a strong economy, and who had the political cunning displayed by Modi or Benjamin Netanyahu or Viktor Orban, the liberal belief in a hidden left-of-center mandate might be exposed as a fond delusion.

My colleagues and I met with Prime Minister Netanyahu and other Israeli military and security officials to discuss our votes against the terrible Iran deal and to reaffirm our commitment to our longstanding alliance.

Bibi Netanyahu is a friend whom we work well with.
