Sharon has betrayed Israel.
Reader comment on item: [After Sharon:] Israeli Politics Will Revert to Its Past

Submitted by Arvind Madhavan (India), Jan 7, 2006 at 04:02

Every nation has a legacy of losing its great leaders to insanity and Israel's was Sharon.

What astonishes me is the question that what caused him to do so???

I still have no answers. In my nation it is quite different from what I have so far seen in Israeli politics. In my nation, the 'secular' & the leftists politicians woo the muslims for votes. Was it the same reason? Was it because of the desire to woo the suicidal E.U or the U.S leftists in the media ?

If so, then Sharon has fallen big-time. The Bible quotes that a pretender would arise and betray the Jewish people, perhaps it was him.
