In an interview with an Israeli radio station, Israeli PM Benjamin Netanyahu said he believed that Nordic politicians did not want him to remain in office.

"Scandinavian governments have spent millions of dollars on a campaign to remove me from power," he said on the station Kol Israel.

"Western governments, but mostly Scandinavian...They know perfectly well why they prefer Buji and Livni to me," he added, referring to his opponents.

As head of the right-wing Likud party, Netanyahu faces a tough challenge from the centre and left in Israel's March 17th elections.

In a separate interview with Rega Radio he was reported to have said that "foreign governments, specifically Scandinavians, are part of a worldwide campaign to topple me", according to a translation posted on Twitter by Israeli blogger and journalist Tal Schneider.

1. It might be true

of other countries as well. But it's not anti-Semitism, it's just that Netanyahu is so darned unlikable. Hope he loses.

Israel had a bunch of really nice prime ministers.. Hope they find their way back to the respect from the rest of the world that they have enjoyed till this man was voted into power.

[The Blue Flower]

2. Yes, Bibi, we all want you to go away

I will personally go to my synagogue and offer thanks if you lose the election.

[villager]

10. A big "todah!," will definitely be in order...

3. uhh, paranoid much, bibikins?

4. R#1 & K for, bwah-ha-HAHA!1 n/t

[lpbk2713]

5. Has he been taking whining lessons from Dumbya?

It sure sounds like it.

[Raine1967]

6. Dictators get toppled.

Netanyahu is aware that he is not a dictator, right? I hope he is aware.

HAving said that, if he is upset about other countries trying to undermine what is supposed to be a democratic process, maybe that fool should not have come to the United States to campaign.

[LuvNewcastle]

7. I've got news for him.

It's not just the Scandinavians, not only the Westerners. The whole world hates that fucker. The only people who like him are some radicals in Israel and the U.S. He doesn't even have what it takes to step down for the good of his country.

You know, people from here in Mississippi are very sensitive about how we are portrayed in the media. When we see someone from here who succeeds and becomes admired, we all love them. But when someone from here goes on tv and says or does something stupid, we all just shake our heads and say "he just had to be from Mississippi." That's how I would imagine that Israel is finally starting to feel about Netanyahu right now. He's brought nothing but shame to his country, and he seems to have no shame at all.

15. Likud got 23% of the Jewish vote in the last election, Obama got almost 3 times more.

Current projected parliamentary seats, poll of poll election results, 51 required for majority.

[Tarheel_Dem]

22. Is it true that Bibi could lose to Zionist Union, and still be Prime Minister? I'm not really up...

on how these coalition governments operate, but I sure wouldn't mind seeing the back of Netanyahu.

[Fred Sanders]

26. The President will call upon the leading party to form a government.....traditionally.

[Tarheel_Dem]

32. Thank you. n/t

8. ROFL

"Scandinavians."



Oh mah Gawd I'm laughing so hard!

[Ed Suspicious]

12. That was my reaction. What a dufus.

It is interesting, that he claim that - as Scandinavia is in fact tre nations, As the name sugest Sweden, Denmark and Norway - and if anything the tree countries have been suportive of Israel for as long as Israel have existed - even it have maybe be little more tempered after 1973 - than it was before 1973....

But then again - BIBI is little desperat now - and desperate pepole tend to trow around them claims that is less than trustworthy - even if he do not need to show any evidence about it - just a claim about it..

Diclotican..

19. Diclotican

you are Scandinavian aren't you?

[freshwest]

35. Norwegian. I'm a member of his DU fan club, too.

[arikara]

37. Yes, I thought I remembered him saying that

One of my favourite DU'ers for sure.

[Diclotican]

40. arikara

arikara

Yes, norwigian by birth and by upbringning - and maybe somewhat to the left poltical speaking..

Dicltotican

[arikara]

43. Diclotican

I think we are both maybe to the left politically speaking!

[freshwest]

36. Diclotican, some local Scandinavians, often called Swedes in the Weeds, aren't amused!

[Submariner]

17. I expect Garrison Keillor and his Lake Wobegon Lutheran Terrorists may rise up

if Bibi keeps harping on the Scandinavians.

[FSogol]

24. and all the voters were above average....

[msanthrope]

38. I nearly wet myself laughing. ....nt

[hifiguy]

42. Those Norwegian Bachelor Farmers are pretty patient

but even they have their limits.

[freshwest]

20. Just another reason to love them even more than I already did!

[villager]

9. The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo is after him!

And tattoos aren't even "kosher" to have.

Aha!

[fbc]

13. Only millions of dollars? should be more

It's a shame more isn't spent on ridding the world of this Middle Eastern hardliner whose policies are a huge threat to peace in the region and promote terrorism throughout the world.

[Cha]

16. Only Scandinavia!?

[arikara]

21. Well I think some of us Canadians would like to help pay to get rid of him

but we have to save our money to depose his ideological brother, the insane Stephen Harper. Its election year for us this year too.

[Tarheel_Dem]

25. His little stunt backfired, not only here, but at home. His approval has dropped below 40% here.

And his disapproval rose by 5%. http://www.timesofisrael.com/netanyahu-approval-in-us-drops-after-congress-speech/. He brought it on himself for injecting himself in this country's politics. I have no doubt we'll continue our relationship with Israel, however, not in the same unanimous way as before. Even American Jews who have been very supportive are pissed that he would jeopardize the relationship for his own politics.



He shit his bed, and now he has to lie in it. There's a stench of desperation about him now. "Scandinavia"? Really?

[malaise]

18. Go Cheney yourself Bibi

Off to the Hague for you

[freshwest]

23. LOL! I gotta share this with one my local 'Swedes in the Weeds' I was talking to today.

We'd talked about this affront to Obama, and she didn't like it. The church she attends, like many in knee jerk fashion, had discussions on the support of Israel earlier this year.

But his visit has not at all played well with them because he left the box they hold Israel in. A vision of a place that is nowhere near what religion says it is.

She took the time to listen to him online to him when I mentioned it to her a while back, and the GOP using him politically. She said he sounded 'terribly paranoid' and 'afraid of everyone.'

She said today that she was glad to hear he might lose the election and of the blowback from the GOP letter to Iran's ayatollahs. And particularly grossed out by Cotton's going straight from getting that letter sent off to a war contract to sign on with them.

Now that he's gone off on the rails about Scandinavians, she's gonna love this!

27. Oh sure, the Scandinavian branch of the Illuminate! Why didn't I think of that?

As we all know, the Freemasons and the Illuminate get together once a year to decide who gets to control global banking in Scandinavia.

I think they have a surplus of 370 trillion dollars. Big place.

[hatrack]

28. The fuck is this guy's problem?

Seriously, what a raving paranoid asshole.

[sadoldgirl]

29. Oh, poor Bibi! Did you

really hope for the Nobel peace price?

[Renew Deal]

30. Netanyahu is Finished

[JonLP24]

31. He'd know better than me

I have know idea how Scandinavian governments view him, I don't who Buji or Livni are but I can understand why they would know why they prefer them, if they did. If he is right-wing, it easier to understand why because Nordic countries inspire jealously from me.

[AverageJoe90]

33. TBH, his paranoia could possibly rival Stalin's at this point.

No, I'm actually not joking. He really sounds that fucking deranged. We can only hope he doesn't go off the deep end and start putting people in gulags.....

[Man from Pickens]

34. hello raging hypocrisy

of all the people on this planet to complain about foreign nationals interfering in domestic politics, he's the very last one who can be taken seriously

[Spazito]

39. Well, I guess the Scandinavian conspiracy tinfoil hat theory didn't work...

so he decided to finally tell the truth, something Palestinians already knew:

"Benjamin Netanyahu says no Palestinian state if he remains Israeli PM

Embattled Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu pledged Monday that a Palestinian state will not be established if he is re-elected, as part of frantic last-minute campaigning ahead of parliamentary elections.

snip

"I think that whoever today moves to establish a Palestinian state and withdraw from territory is giving attack territory for Islamic extremists against the state of Israel," Netanyahu told nrg. "Whoever ignores that is burying his head in the sand. The left is doing that, burying its head in the sand time after time," he said.

When asked if that means a Palestinian state will not be established if he is elected, Netanyahu said "indeed.""

41. Yeah, and all the paranoids are after you, too.
