++Yesh ATid yesterday blew up when Lieberman of Likud said he demanded the Defense portfolio.
++Pollsters are saying there is a drift to the Zionist Union, which seems to be attracting new immigrants to Israel.
++Almost all of Bibi's funding comes from the United States, actually three families. Sheldon Adelson owns Israel Today, a daily which you can get for free. Israel Today pumps out the Likud line.
++Today, President Obama admitted there were differences between his and Bibi's positions on Iran. Bibi hesitated today but then issued a press release that he was coming to the states to address Congress.
++Bernie Sanders says he'll watch from home.
++Josh Marshall was a nice piece on the strange dynamics of the so-called Jewish Republicans and the extreme right Zionist Organization that has no ties to the World Zionist Congress.
++The reason this stuff is occupying my attention now is because the Israeli press is more interesting to read than our own.
++Even they say they are disappointed in Bryan Williams.
