Benjamin Netanyahu from WikiPedia:
Benjamin "Bibi" Netanyahu (Hebrew: ??????????? "????????" ??????????? (help·info), also Binyamin Netanyahu born 21 October 1949) is the current prime minister of Israel. He previously held the same position from June 1996 to July 1999 and is currently the Chairman of the Likud Party.
Netanyahu is the first (and, to date, only) Israeli prime minister born after the State of Israel's foundation. Netanyahu was Foreign Minister (2002–2003) and Finance Minister (2003–August 2005) in Ariel Sharon's governments, but he departed over disagreements regarding the Gaza Disengagement Plan. He retook the Likud leadership on 20 December 2005. In the 2006 election, Likud did poorly, winning twelve seats. In December 2006, Netanyahu became the official Opposition Leader in the Knesset and Chairman of the Likud Party. In August 2007, he retained the Likud leadership by beating Moshe Feiglin in party elections. Following the 10 February 2009 parliamentary election, in which Likud placed second and right-wing parties won a majority, Netanyahu formed a coalition government.
