What has been described as a political earthquake in Israel, Sharon leaving Likud, continues to develope in interesting ways.
The Left wing Israeli press (which means all the major news outlets) are more and more critical of Sharon. While Sharon spearheaded Israel's pull-out from Gaza the press protected Sharon. Now, with a rejuvinated Labour Party, there are daily stories highlighting Sharon's dark side.
Yesterday, for example, a major newspaper ran a story declaring Sharon the most corrupt politican in Israel. There are also questions about how could a father allow his son the take the fall for him. The press is helping Labour headed by someone who makes it very clear that he supports Israel being pushed back to the 1967 borders.
This trend will have an impact as the policies at stake in the coming election become clearer. Despite, their public claims, the fact remains that the future of denfensible borders for Israel and the unity of Jerusalem depends on Likud staying in power.
The Sharon disenegagement policy has put the future of Jerusalem on the negotiating table. Sharon and Peretz in power will not be able to stop the international community from forcing compromises on Jersualem.
Therefore it is important that the defenders of Jerusalem get behind the candidate best able to put Likud back in power.
All the polls show that is Benjamin Netanyhau. Despite his faults (all these candidates have them) he is our best shot to save Jersualem from Abbas and the terrorists. Lets pray that the Right in Likud gets behind Netanyahu to stop Sharon's buddy Mofaz from taking control.
Comments
I agree with Betty, that Mr. Netanyahu who allowed the failure of Oslo and who sat idly by while Jews were expeled from their homes is an appropriate leader for the Likud. I believe we need to look to leaders with integrity, conviction and faith to remain true to the values of the Likud party, and to protect the unity of Jerusalem. Enough of the stranglehold of career polititians on the wishes of the People of Israel.

I am praying for the peace of Jersualem and all of Isreal. I will be praying for Netanyahu as well. I have great faith in him. I am one of those Christians who loves God's People. Prayerfully, Elsie

Please do not allow the Israeli government to give away any more of Israel. Keep strong and fight the good fight to maintain the country.

Ariel Sharon has just about used any credit the Israeli public was willing to give him. As the campaign wears on, it will becoming more and more apparent to the Israeli voter that whatever Sharon says he believes or promises to do really means nothing since Sharon will do whatever he wants whenever he wants to, and that Ariel's first priority will be whatever is advantageous to Ariel Sharon and if that conflicts with the interests of the State of Israel, then so be it.

Why are we so fatalistic? Why should we trust in the words of men, when G-d is in control of History and what happens in Israel. You are free to support whomever you want, as for me, as a Bible Believer, I will trust in my Lord, because He can place a man in power, and he can just take it away from him, as well. You, and correct me if I'm wrong, seem to think that it is either Bibi, or nothing. I don't think so. Have you ever considered. perhaps Moshe Feiglin, or even Natan Sharansky? It's El Elyon (G-d Almighty), and NOT man who has the LAST word! HE is in control of Jerusalem's future, not Sharon, "Dubya" or Condi Rice. Am Yisra'el Chai! Blessed be His Name! Thank You.

Please stop allowing polls to direct your voting. Fear of God and Love of the land of Israel and its people should direct israeli voting. All the candidates certainly have faults, no one is perfect, but surely Moshe Feiglin seems by far the candidate most committed to fearing God instead of the nations and terrorist groups. When will we learn that the person who is easiest to elect is not always the best choice. Giving away any part of Israel will only result in loss of life, war, and eventually the costly reconquest of lands already given by God to Israel in the 1967 war. Obey God settle the lands of israel. Do not disobey God by uprooting settlers and dividing the land in favor of terrorist groups and nations that don't fear God.

This is last day Bible prophecy to the fullest. Our man Bush has sold us out here in the US just like your leader. Bush has also sold your people out and a lot of blood is on both of there shoulders and there will be a lot more before this is all over. Just because we vote a man in does not mean he is honest. About all politicians are there to line there pockets only

I am not sure I can agree with this article. Mr. Benjamin Netanyahu has proven that he is not able to stand up to external pressure by the U.S. I'm not even convinced that the Likud is the party to get behind. I don't think that the expulsion of the Jews from Gaza and Shomron could have taken place if the Likud Party had stayed true to their stated beliefs, especially Mr. Netanyahu. His fiscal policies were more important to him than the Jewish people and their land. His time in the government while they were planning the death of Israel was appauling to say the least. He is a very charismatic person and didn't even try to turn the tide. Find someone else, please.
