COMMENTS: Netanyahu’s Platform Treated as Blank Slate
Only CBS assigned a reporter to cover the elections to Israel's Likud. London-based Richard Roth was in Tel Aviv where both Tzipi Livni and Benjamin Netanyahu claimed to be in the best position to organize a coalition government. "Political wrangling now will decide who really won." Roth described Livni as "a lawyer and former Mossad agent" who supported the recent military incursion into the Gaza Strip yet endorses a peace treaty with the Palestinians. Netanyahu's party attracted fewer votes but has "a bigger bloc of potential right-wing allies." Roth left Netanyahu's politics undescribed.
