With their election just three days away, Bibi Netanyahu is kind of "sweating bullets" ... on Facebook.

"The rule of the right is in danger," Netanyahu wrote on Facebook earlier on Friday.
"Left-wing and media elements in Israel and abroad have conspired to bring [Zionist Union leaders Isaac Herzog and Tzipi Livni] to power illegitimately, by means of slander at home and unprecedented money from abroad."
The prime minister added that the only way to ensure that the left does not succeed is to "close the gap in the days that remain before the election."

Those are some pretty strong "accusations." Maybe,

Maybe, listening to "what the people want" -- is ACTUALLY the Smart thing to do ...

That's some pretty strong "medicine." Maybe,
"War is not always the Answer" eh?
“Anyone but Bibi” -- would obviously know that.
Anyone but the War-loving GOP too, that is.
