This does make me lose faith in the Justice system - This is not the act of a criminal. Three judges do not seem capable of justice, there is no way a jury would have convicted Ramon, judging from the responses of citizens. Sometime the law is an ass.

the "new israeli" nation has trampeled its own "jewish values" of morality and rightousness. a new motto: of out of the knesset will go filth, immorality, theft and vice .

Shouldn't he, perhaps, convey his deepest sorrow to the female soldier upon whom this illegal act was made? Last I checked, the sympathy should go to the victim, not the perpetrator. What kind of country do we live in, where a person is convicted of hurting another person, and we feel sorry that the person who commited the offense is punished? What kind of moral society are we? This is not just a political story, although it has been made into one. This is a fight for a woman's right to her body and not to have a man's will forced on her (and whether coercion or aggression is used is irrelevant). And Thank G-d, justice prevailed today, and we should be happy. I am very disappointed in the MKs who expressed their sorrow over the conviction, because, no matter what their political opinions are; no matter what investigation into their activities there may be; they are the ones who were given the job of creating the rule book upon which our society stands, and if they think that what Haim Ramon did was ok - we are in trouble.

When it comes to Ramon who was found guilty by a court of law and where he himself admitted to kissing, Olmert Beilin Livni and their cronies feel so bad and regret the conviction. Yet, when it comes to Katzav who was not judged in a court or admit to any wrong doing everyone is looking to attack and judge him, telling him to leave office. I am all for Katzav. I believe the govt, media, and cops want him out badly. They all suck. Jews without Torah are like fish out of water. They move around a lot but don't do much.

Mr. PM.YOU R NEXT IN LINE!!!!!!! you know your days are numbered..........u r dishonest, a crook and hopefully you will sit in jail with ramon.

was to frighten Mr President and its surely worked. That's good,no? We're living in Sdom and Amorrah so it's hard for us to judge any more.

B"H Kissing a woman in public is not snius. Here is Israel enforcing morality. I am surprised it came to criminal charges. But if a kiss in Israel can get someone in prison in Israel, what can more serious acts do? I do not think Katsav has any reason to fear unless there is evidence proving the draft charges against him, and he fails to stand up for himself properly.

These good for nothing are a total hillul

Just like with terrorism and kassams,they do not care about the victims.They care about the enemy.They give them money,land,weapons,anything they need.

The Winograd committee is about to question Olmert as to his responsibility of the failed Lebanon war . Let's wait and see ..... He's to blame in the first for appointing Peretz as Defense minister out of personal interest and thus committing an irresponsible act . And there's more.....
