Lieberman: “Doesn’t look good for peace talks – or anything”

Ynet reports on a terrible forecast for the future by Foreign Ministor Avgidor Lieberman:

“Foreign Minister Avigdor Lieberman does not share Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s optimism as to the chances of the Washington peace summit maturing into an agreement.

“You have to understand that signing a comprehensive peace agreement is an unattainable goal – not next year and not in the next generation,” he said Sunday, in a Yisrael Beiteinu event celebrating Rosh Hashana.

According to the report on Ynet, Lieberman also had grim views on other topics.

“The American economy is not only headed for a double dip, it’s headed for a dip that will make the Titanic look like it went skinny dipping. Hussein Obama is most probably the worst leader America had, after George Washington, and he will bring it to its knees by next year”.

He also forecast more troubles in South Asia. “The Pakistani floods are nothing compared to what’s coming next. The heavens will open next week and drown each and every Muslim in a radius of 1,000 miles of Karachi”.

When asked about the tension with Lebanon, the foreign minister replied that he doesn’t “care about countries that will be eaten by large insects by the year 2023”.

One of the reporters, in a wheelchair, asked the minister for his thoughts on voices in the right calling for a one-state solution. Lieberman said that not only will there never be one state, but that “you will rot in that wheelchair forever. You can forget about ever hoping to walk again. You’re not Superman, and neither was Christopher Reeve. At  least he had a good looking wife. I’ll bet you can’t even get laid.”

At a later stage in the press conference, Lieberman said he had time for “one more question from one of you loser reporters”, but then said “Aw, fuck it – all you left wing bacteria are going to die in some weird flu attack in 2016 anyway”.
