Decades ago, Meir Kahane posed a question: Revolution or Referendum? The time for referendum has passed. Israel’s ruling clique knows that many polls indicate that the Jews universally want to live in a state without Arabs, in defensible borders (no Palestinian state), and to forcefully counter the terrorists. Israeli leftists, oligarchs, and their political nominees share both an affinity to foreign governments and, accordingly, an anti-Jewish agenda. Political candidates habitually lie to voters, promising them a hard line against the Arabs, but once in office, they proceed with capitulations.

Israel is a post-communist country. A few countries that peacefully abandoned socialism saw their ex-communists coming back. Worse than in Czechoslovakia - the only entirely peaceful scenario of post-communist transformation of entire country - Israel developed a strong oligarchy. The degree of governmental-oligarchic control over Israel resembles the situation in Russia. Worse than in Russia, Israeli rulers lack a nationalist agenda. The real Israeli opposition lacks money and media access, is besieged by the courts and the police, and is obstructed at every level of government. Even if nationalist Jews are allowed to compete for votes on par with the established parties, a leftist-Arab majority guarantees the outcome of elections. There is no chance of peacefully shedding Israeli oligarchic socialism.

As a pre-requisite to successful revolution, the Israeli system of government should be made dysfunctional. The leftists take care of the police with their incessant suits over alleged brutality against Arab terrorists. Continuous concessions to Arabs, temporarily culminating in Gush Katif and Lebanon, considerably demoralized the army.

Olmert is the best candidate to further discredit the government. Counter-intuitive as that sounds, patriotic Israelis are better off voting Olmert rather than Netanyahu.
