I hope you guys have heard of what happenned to the Israeli prime minister Ariel Sharon. He had a cerebrovascular accident... meaning it started bleeding in his brain and he was in surgery for about 10 hours, he's unconscious now. The news say he'll be that way until sunday (the dcotors aren't planning on waking him up until then).

But rumors are saying that he's already dead, and if not really dead then he's got a clinical death, he's on resperators, and they say that if he wasn't prime minister they would already unplug him from the machines. They just want to give the goverment some time for some sort of stability. He was suppose to run again for prime minister on March 28th, but now he obviously couldn't. And everything feels like such a mess. I don't know what will happen at the elections. He was our prime minister for 4 years now.... and I can't see any other of the candidates leading...

 

what do you think of the whole situation?

I think its sad. I wonder who will be the new PM after him and what the new PM will do. hopefuly he'll keep on giving the palestinians land back.

he's in stable condition last I read... but I have a real bad feeling about this when he dies. Riots galore if you ask me.... not only in Isreal either.

I dont think there will be too much rioting, maybe a little. hopefuly its just a little.

fasten your seatbelts..

so you're saying thing are going to get alot worse for that part of the world?

absolutely...

 

 

now please remove the sigg... or alter it.. or something. It offends me. Seriously.

it should offend you, democrats that were in the kkk, that offends me too. its sad.

What happens when there is a new prime minister?

They probably pick a new one

there were suppose to be elections anyway on March 28th but shron was the candidate that was most likely to get picked again. Now people don't know how well his party Kadimah will do without him. I think surveys showed that the number of mandates at the knesset are about half of what they are without him.

 

He just got out of another surgery. They say he's better, but he's still in a really bad state. I don't believe he'll get out of it. If he does he'll be completely paralised. He deffinetly won't go back to being prime minister

I think its sad. I wonder who will be the new PM after him and what the new PM will do. hopefuly he'll keep on giving the palestinians land back.

 

Being on the other side of the story- I'm a jewish israeli and not paletinian that comment just seems abit out of line for me. I don't want to get into political ideas, i'm just saying that sometimes it's abit more than just "giving back land". And I don't think that watching news from international channels is very objective. You can never really know how it is to live here until you really do...

 

I was for giving back Gaza, and I'm all for co-existence.

But it is very complicated. My house, where I live, is outside the green border, meaning, if we go back to the green border before 67, I lose my home. And I'm just one person....

(does that even tell you anything??)

and i think israel has a right to the land it won in the wars, but in the name of peace they should give back the land and work for peace.

i know its alot more complicated then just giving back the land, but its a start and it might help for peace.

yes i know, that's why I was all for giving back Gaza. The amout of jews there was very minor and it was also taking alot of our forces to keep the place safe. And some soldiers died there.

However, now the Fatah are using the erea to send missles, and it's also causing problems with egypt. Abu Mazen can't control the people there.

 

I live in Jerusalem, and there are arab villages close to my house, but it's really populated. Not like Gush Katif was...

I think its sad. I wonder who will be the new PM after him and what the new PM will do. hopefuly he'll keep on giving the palestinians land back.

sometimes its so easy for others to talk out of their ass when they don't know the facts... You on the other hand.. know first hand.. I can only comend you on your knowledge of the subject.. as you probably see things day to day that we here don't..

 

;)

yes, it's pretty hard to avoid politics here, it's everywhere and all the time.

We also HAVE to learn all this stuff for school, and we have to join the army when we're 18 so it's important to have your political ideas in place so you know where you stand in the army. There were people who refused to orders...

 

I actaully have a pretty basic understanding of the things, considering all the other people here. But it's important to know this stuff... living here and knowing less than this is pretty ignorant...

kudos to you my friend! Everyone in America should be as informed about the rest of the world as well as our own country.

:)

 

yeah... people to tend to live in their own small bubbles don't they?

However, we deffinetly can't expect everyone to really care about things that happen on the other side of the world from them. I personally, don't really understand what's going on with Bush all the time...

agreed...

 

but sometimes I am just as lost as you are on the whole Bush issue as well.. lol the man makes no sense to me.. :lol:

 

gotta go for now.. I'll be back later.. its quitting time here at work.. :kiss:

I think its sad. I wonder who will be the new PM after him and what the new PM will do. hopefuly he'll keep on giving the palestinians land back.

yeah....

:rolleyes: do you even know what you are saying??? Seriously... I worry about you....

im sorry, but you should be worrying more about what you're saying ;)

you make no sense... and you swear you do.. lol thats the sad part... at least I take time to listen to others point of view... you on the other hand.. are blinded by propaganda...

 

I don't know why I even bother. :snore:

you know what, i'm gonna be the grown up and just walk away. one of us should be.

:) thats the smartest thing I think I have ever heard you say.... :idea2:
