Bibi s blues

Interesting article in Haaretz today. Almost makes me feel guilty for maligning Netanyahu so often. After all, the writer makes him sound like something of a squarepeg lone-wolf type, so at least I should empathize with some aspect of his experience.

Strangely, several people who know him well claim he's the opposite of how I and most, I think, view him: I see him as a complete machiavellian liar, but he's portrayed here as a pathetic politician who can't lie, glad-hand at bar mitzvahs or rub shoulders with the hoi polloi in the market, but is actually a brilliant statesman.

Bibi, we hardly knew ya.
