With all due caution, it appears as though the era of Sharon leading Israel has reached its tragic end.

Israel is [now] expecting a generation shift in its upper echelons. Sharon was hospitalized at a time when his standing at home and abroad was at a peak, following the successful implementation of the disengagement plan.... A change in leadership will turn Israeli politics into a giant riddle....

If Sharon decides to keep quiet he will lose his legitimacy and be unworthy of leading Israel in its hour of crisis.

Netanyahu's government and its faulty and politicized priorities are leading Israel into bankruptcy.

If I were an Arab leader, I would never sign an agreement with Israel. It is normal; we have taken their country. It is true God promised it to us, but how could that interest them? Our God is not theirs. There has been Anti - Semitism, the Nazis, Hitler, Auschwitz, but was that their fault ? They see but one thing: we have come and we have stolen their country. Why would they accept that?

No, I do not have dual citizenship with Israel. I'm an American.
