Yes, but from the article, I thought it was more like Glenn Beck and Freedom Works. Is that not true?

I didn't read the article, but no, its not, its a 100% libertarian/objectivist movement.

Nice job! Wish you guys luck, it will be a tough battle to buck the system as you might of noticed in America but proud other countries are catching on. Hope to see an Israeli Ron Paul come onto the scene.

Thank you. However the atmosphere in Israel is the exact opposite of the atmosphere in the U.S. Here we have a surge of socialism, especially among the young. So libertarians are a real real rarity. I am pretty sure I know personally most libertarians in Israel. Maybe a couple of hundreds of them.

Better read the article. Glenn Beck pushes Freedom Works and sounds like they're taking credit for starting the Tea Party in Israel.

Good news is that many people in Israel have better sense of reality and liberty than douchebags like David Frum who called RP a "crank" on CNN last week. They call them "left wingers" there.

Bad news is that they have some nutcase war pimps too who want to keep sucking on US aid tits and creating blowbacks for US.

This was in Israel's largest paper yesterday, only one columnist's voice but it is not a lone Israeli voice.

Thank God for Ron Paul

The candidacy of the gynecologist from Galveston has much to teach Israel's premier Republican, Benjamin Netanyahu, about extremism. If Netanyahu takes the trouble to learn.

At some point, Netanyahu will need to act to keep the center close, rather than the extremes. And, as the leading Republican in Israel, the prime minister might also consider joining his American colleagues in their most fervent prayer this week:

"Please, God, don't let Ron Paul win."
