He was responsible for the Gush Katif Debacle. He was responsible for needless violence in Amona. Reponsible for the Lebanan War. Wants to sell us a bill of goods of Peace with Sysia and Abbas. Good riddance you are getting out.

"Na na, na na na na, hey hey hey, GOODBYE!"

and would have been more hurt after the elections - than now that your thrown out of office - when you’ll actually see that 99% of the citizens of Israel don’t want you. Olmert, you lost, because of the way you behaved to your Jewish brothers. You were insensitive and cruel to them and all you strived for is to make a good impression to the anti-Semitic nations of the world who despise Israel more than the Leftists here. Olmert, you're a loser and have no qualifications of leadership. So we're all glad you're going out for good. Hope you won’t cause too much damage until mid-September. It would be better if you’d still leave tonight.

the abysmal and shameful behaviour of the Knesset over the past 2 1/2 years. Charges of sedition, treason, aiding and abetting an enemy and other crimes against the state should be laid against Olmert. Finally victims of the Amona beatings as well as bombing victims of Sderot ought to be able to sue Olmert for damages due to criminal negligence. Israel is at the crossroads of its existence. Either it will take the initiative and do the right thing or it will wither on the vine of suffering.

No one in Israel trusts this despicable demagogue, even those who feign support only do so out of monetary concern. If the truth be told even Olmert’s own family probably wonders how he could be so calloused to drag them into this quagmire. I was hoping beyond all hope he would announce his departure but as we all know, Olmert will never do what is proper and good for Israel.

It's everyones else fault and you are all to blame.Wait till I'm finished with you crybabies you will all pay ! You think Amona was bad ? I'm going make it look like family picnic. King Ehud http://averyheavystone.blogspot.com/

At least!!He should have resigned just after the war!I did not support him but today he is dignified!

"one small step down for man, one giant leap for mankind."

Dear Harry ,Ariel sharon was responsible for the Gush Katif debacle,Hizbullah was resposible for the Lebanon war ,Olmert merely responded to an unprovoked attack from Hizballah ,and as for Syria and Abbas ,olmert has played games with them and run rings around them .I am no great fan of prime Minister Olmert but Livni ,Mofaz and Barak will be even worse for Israel ,just you wait and see.

Time for a small celebration! BUT it’s just the beginning. We need to demand general elections NOW. This Kadima party is corrupted, evil and dangerous. It's all about them. We all know who they are and what they stand for, starting with Barak down to Livni, They will do ANYTHING for power.

LETS MAKE SURE THE NEXT LEADER IS MOSHIACH!!!

plenty of work to do to clear his name. the man is sick and has been stealing and bribing for years. he belongs in jail and the sooner the better. his replacements are no bargains either.

Most of the ministers in the Knesset are shysters ,why pick on ehud olmert? They are all greedy opportunist bandits.Take your pick .do we elect shyster A ,B or C? or Ariel Sharon the great dictator who threw 12 year old opponents in to jail without trial ,anybody remember theGreek island affair? what short memories you people have.

If it's not him, and I'm glad that he leave, it will be Livni... And guys, don't expect any difference in all of this balagan (...) What we need is a new gouvernement, with new faces, new ideas, and I'm desperate 'cause there is no one :(

Although with a doubt Olmerd is the most despised PM ever, there is no reason to celebrate his departure. The damage done by this piece of garbage will haunt us for years to come, but what is waiting in the wings to replace him might be even worse. The system is kaput and noone has the cahones to change it. Besides that the people with the real power behind the scene are still there and will continuii on this self destructive Shalom cult road. Hopefully we will see Olmerd serve some time for his abuse of this corrupt sytem, that allowed him to rape this nation.

Not Soon Enough!!!!!

Happy Days Are Here Again.

We don't have 2 months to wait around while this Nero fiddles and the country burns.

the world has ever seen. You won't like your next leader any better.

We must see to have GENERAL ELECTIONS NOW, not a replacement for Olmert from this corrupt party.
