Olmert is Abbas’s choice. Olmert helped Omri Sharon break election laws, which is minor compared to the comfort Olmert gives to Hamas. He helped destroy the lives of thousands in Gush Katif. Such traitorous behavior is worthy of jail, not a position of leadership.

As a post modern American, I was delighted by your “Election Fever” article. You will have enough comments about the political substance of the piece. I would like to talk a little about style. I absolutely adored your personal, quasi-linear style of exposition. As I read it, I began to look forward as much to a forthcoming parenthetical remark and to self-awareness comments (that others might consider a distraction or intrusion … as I illustrate in this parenthetical remark ) as I did to the honest and tentative quality of your analysis. Bravo and hatzlachah.

i feel compelled to coment, having re-read.

The business with the press looking for every opprtunity to “expose” both Arik and Omri Sharon for political wheeling and dealing, is, in my eyes, ludicrous. Politics is ALL about wheeling and dealing. That we hear about an instance of manipulation and politicking in a back room or two, and are supposed to be outraged is nothing short of stupid, or at the very least naive and gullible.

Power is an enticing prize. People will misbehave in order to obtain it. If we believe any politician is taint-free, we are doing our intelligence a disservice.

Just my two shekelsworth.

Far be it that you should listen to me, only an American, but one with your best interests at heart. Does not Hamas need one to leash them and bind them and train them (or end their thievery and murders) before they can wipe your ingratiating smiles from your welcoming faces? Do you not have a David or a Joshua or a Gideon who can stand against the rabble who desire to destroy you? Does not Binyamin Netanyahu still walk among you? Is not the hand of Bibi eager to leave the plow and seize the sword?

Liza, It all sounds so sad. Not to mention impossible to figure out! At one point I really thought I had it figured out. When I saw the heart of that warrior (Ariel Sharon) so desirous of peace, and those people in the Gaza Stip making such sacrifice for the sake of peace, I just knew that was the long awaited “wake-up call” Isreal so needed to send the rest of the nations. And that out of all the nations, all those who love Isreal would come to her aid-financially, prayerfully and in whatever other capacity they could. One thing I know for sure, the world is watching as never before! Let’s just hope they don’t “hit the snooze”! Love and prayers to Israel!
