Binyamin Netanyahu had much luck in the first 100 days of his second term as prime minister Israel (...) With the lull in the Territories and Borders, he was able to work towards achieving its main objective: to consolidate its political status.
When asked before the last election, how he had changed since his first term, he replied: I learned to be a politician. I saw how Sharon and Olmert behaved towards people and other politicians, and I built. I realized that politics was a "people business" and I learned to listen at meetings.
Netanyahu may be pleased with him after the first 100 days in office. It moved from right to the center of the political spectrum agreeing on the principle of two states for two peoples that has passed by without any real opposition Likud. His coalition is stable, the most eminent ministers are supporting him and are responsible for little leaks defamatory to him. The opposition led by Tzipi Livni, Netanyahu is neutralized since he stole his reason to exist: support for a Palestinian state.
His new political position has not been without sacrifice. That cost him a cynical betrayal of the ideas he believed in the past, both in the political field than in the economic sphere. (...) For the new Bibi, as with Sharon at the time, the ideology is the prerogative of the naive, it changes its policy of immediate objectives. That's why he decided to support the idea of two states for two peoples and to raise taxes. /.
