It is better to revisit the elections of Israeli Prime Ministers like Menachem Begin and Yitzhak Shamir and U.S. Presidents like Richard Nixon and Ronald Reagan. Against heavy odds, they all surprised the world by opening up new avenues to peace despite their political-campaign rhetoric. Even Yasser Arafat proved that one can work toward peace under proper circumstances and receive a Nobel Peace Prize. Instead of being sarcastic about it, let us congratulate the people of Israel who elected Netanyahu...
