He also described Israel as an increasingly racist society. And finally warned about more political assassinations in the vein of Rabin's. All in Haaretz.After recent interviews in the same vein by the head of the Israeli Defense Forces and the former head of Shin Bet, the Israeli intelligence service, a lot of red flags are going up over Netanyahu's war-mongering, the growing power of the West Bank settlers, and the political views of Israel's political leaders.Will AIPAC declare these Israelis anti-Semites?Monday, April 30: The NYTimes reports on a speech given by former Israeli prime minister Ehud Olmert.
