	Al-Ahram Weekly \| Now the money is on Mordechai (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-07)
		The grey, official, restrained and humourless man [Mordechai], who was wont to employ the most worn out clichés in the Israeli lexicon, brandished a magic wand [in the TV debate] and turned the fabulous magician [Netanyahu] into a bunny rabbit".
		Mordechai accused Netanyahu of being mendacious with his colleagues (which explained why such erstwhile Likud figures as Benny Begin, Dan Meridor and David Levy had left the party under Netanyahu's leadership), and adventurist in foreign policy.
		Mordechai, on the other hand, not only scores more or less the same rating among the Ashkenazim and Arabs as Barak in any run-off against Netanyahu, but scores higher than the Labour leader among the Sephardim and religious.
