This is the most bizzare statement I've ever heard from a politician. And all along I was thinking it was ARIEL SHARON's mental faculties that had failed. Apparently I misunderstood. It must have been Olmert, instead.

we are at war we needed to be one till we destroy, kill all hamas and jihad hisballah,after we needed to analyse the situationand make some changes and most probably a referendum will be good .

The leopard(or the chicken in this case) shows his true spots. I honestly thought the man had woken up from the dream of land for peace but no, he will carry on giving away land until we have nothing left. Thank you lefties and centrists... This is all your fault, you had the choice and you chose wrong

sadly it is now obvious olmert weak.he is selling the country down the drain in return for smile from condoleeza rice and pat on back from bush.army chief halutz is clueless and not the right man for the job.also defense minister peretz wellmeaning but also clueless

HE IS THE BEST FOR ISRAEL. DAN, PLEASE TAKE THIS JOB AND SAVE ISRAEL.

Thank you Olmert - your comments have helped me with my Tisha b'Av preparations

ISRAEL LOST THE WAR!!! give it up Israel

...only to have the rug pulled out from under her again. Zvi Hendel said it best in the article. "How many missiles and rockets need to fall on the North and South in order for Olmert to understand that state security cannot be achieved through bragging…and splitting the nation?" One day there will be a PM that will stand up for all of Israel.

An Israeli PM who looks into the forest and doesn't just see trees. The only way the conflict ends is with two states side by side on the '67 borders. Anyone with a brain knows this. The last thing Israel needs is more religious nuts talking about "greater Israel" and their creepy calls for further forced migrations of Arabs off "their" land. The bible is cool and all folks, but honestly...

Golda lost her job after the 73 war, and I am sure Olmert will also when the dust settles and investigations start. The israeli people will never allow them seves to be under rocket fire after what has happened in the past couple of months.

So what is the solution? Eliminate the Arab population like vermin? Where will the innocent people live? There are innocent victim on all sides but I am beginning to sense that there are many Israelis that believe their lives are worth more than their neighbors. That said, I don't think Hizbollah deserves anything less than what they are receiving. What a bunch of losers intentionally endangering the lives of everyone around them to wage war in the name of a God. Pathetic behavior on all fronts.

NO ONE EVER TALKS ABOUT THE SINAI COAST - OR OF EGYPY SHARING LAND WITH PALESTINE GET THIS NOTION OF "THE WEST BANK" OUT OF YOUR HEADS - IT WILL DESTROY ISRAEL PALESTINE WILL BE HAPPIER WITH ALL THE OCEAN FRONT LAND THATS MAKES UP THE SInai COAST SOMTHING TO THINK ABOUT

Olmert's children refuse to serve in the army! His wife and children belong to left wing extremist groups. His own daughter demonstrated against his Chief of Staff 6 weeks ago.

Only an idiot or G-d could make a statement about realignment in the middle of a war CAUSED through previous realignments. I know Olmert is not G-d so what does that make him. Any guesses please??

olmerts mouth seems to be open too much. things are falling out of it. he is quick to say we took over bint jbeil and quick to say whatever he thinks we need to hear. now he has come out with another slip of his stupidity! rockets on tel aviv - that he doesn't say!

Could hardly believe what I read! Olmert couldn't have chosen a worse time to talk, or even think about, re-alignment.

What is needed is a revolution to get rid of the Leftist cancer that is everywhere in Israeli civil service, judiciary and now also at the top of the Army. In any nornal country, Olmert and his gand of Sharon bootlickers would be tried for treason and shot!

Look at the frigging map! Israel is NOT viable with arab tumors growing in Gaza and the West Bank. Does people get so blinded by being so near the problem that they can’t see properly? Anybody can see that allowing an arab state inside Israel would be repeating the Trojan’s mistake of letting the Greek’s horse inside their walls. Do you REALLY want to die?! Throw ALL arabs out of Israel.

If olmert considered himself brave, he should resign now. He pushes israel to loose her reputation which is "the best army in middle east", and he has already proved that israel has the most stupid army in the world. ha ha ha ha

Just when the smallest beam of light began to break through the impending clouds of terrorism, we hear this from one of our own.

I agree with you wholeheartedly. That man has it ALL together.

I can't believe the PM's comments about going forward with the pullouts. Has he been hit by one of the Hezbolla rockets? Vote him OUT!!!!!!!!

Vote Benjamin Netanyahu next election for security, strength and peace!!!!

Israel must eliminate the terrorists excuses.....and carry an even bigger stick and willingness to use it. This round, because of withdrawal, Israel initially had the backing of Jordan, Egypt and the Saudis. This would not have happened if the territories were still occupied. Olmert is betting that they will not dare attack from the West Bank after this witnessing the price of this engagement.

When you start the killing you must finish the enemy off to the death. Or the leftover enemy will continue to come and kill you. History has proved this to be true. However, most politicians have no clue about war that is because most politicians are cowards at their core. FINISH WHAT HAS STARTED.
