1. Reminder to Bibi what happens when you give away GOD's land!
Jeremiah ,   Israel   (01.01.14)
The punishment for Judea & Samaria will be worse. HIS timing is always perfect.
2. Lo Nishgach Lo Nislach
Badbob ,   NYC USA   (01.01.14)
We are with u people from Gush Katif. It will never be forgotten what this man did I have no sympathy at all.
3. The last hero
Jack ,   London   (01.01.14)
May Hashem be with you
4. To # 1
Torvid Høiland ,   Bryne, Norway   (01.01.14)
The god who was unable to save 6 million Jews by giving Hitler a heart attack sent Sharon into coma for returning Gaza to the Palestinians? Yep, sounds reasonable....
5. I would have loved to see Obama take on Sharon
zionist forever   (01.01.14)
Sharon intimidated even Bush so would have loved to see how he handled Obama. Right now if its legally possible the doctors should discontinue treatment because they can keep him alive artificially for another 20 years using machines but his brain is a vegetable so better for him to be allowed to die be remembered for his achievements. The man made his mistakes like Gaza but he also did plenty of good things for the country alot as a soldier & some as PM so he should not be judged by Gaza because sometimes take gambles and they don't pay off. Best thing he did as PM was refused to treat Arafat as a respectable leader and instead treated him as the terrorist he was and kept him locked in a small demolished compound for the rest of his life.
6. Every time Israel does something foolish
Jerome   (01.01.14)
PM Sharon's medical condition worsens. Israel's foolish deals has an additional effect on Sharon's wellbeing.
7. It would be nice if Sharon wakes up just once more
Israel   (01.01.14)
and take a peek at the current anti-Israel MKs in the government. On second thought, perhaps it's better he does see the corruption and distorted government as it would surely give him an instant heart attack.
8. Sharon Temple Mount stunt cost world 9/11, Afghanistan, Iraq
Steve Benassi ,   Silver Bay, MN USA   (01.01.14)
...and now a possible war with Iran. But also Obama, Kerry, '67 borders, NATO in West Bank, and Palestine Israel.
9. Maybe punishment for what he did to Palestenians
mohammad ,   State of Palestine   (01.01.14)
why don't you say it is punishment for the massacres he did against the civilians!!!!. it is really strange how you extremists assign your selfs instead of god. oh sorry i forgot that you are "" the chosen"
10. let him go in peace
Toledano Jean-Pierre ,   Israel   (01.01.14)
I want only to say: let him go asleep, let him go away.... in peace. You can argument about his decisions, but in the war against the Egyptians he did what he had to do. The same in Lebanon. He did more for Israel then I or a lot of others did. Amen
11. To #4
eli ,   jerusalem   (01.01.14)
Actually, we cannot "know" how G-d works or why...but the lesson I learn was that G-d needed to send a strong message to the Jews to get out of Europe and back to our Holy land. Perhaps he punished Sharon for giving away some of that land. We all have free will but there are conswquences also.
12. Arik Sharon
Nils von der Heyde ,   Hamburg   (01.01.14)
Mr. Sharon also was in a way a funny guy. In Jan 1984 while granting an interview to me he offered us Redwine in teacups. When I asked WHY? He said: because my wife may not see us drinking alcohol at 3 p.m.
13. Arik
Sagi   (01.01.14)
was one of a small group of people, most of them household names, some not so well known to the general public, that because of them and their unbounded bravery and their total disregard of fear, we are where we are today. Some of these people I knew on a very personal level, others I knew not so well, most of them were what is termed, "strange birds". Strange or not, we owe them, we owe them big time, in fact that debt is immeasurable. Arik will go down in the annals of our history and future generations will learn to admire and respect his memory.
14. #1 So TRUE the "rewards" of his coma was results of it
Rob ,   Ashqelon, Israel   (01.01.14)
Not a coincidence . Giving and dividing land mandates this type of thing and NOBODY is exempt. We in usa are waiting for YHVH to smash our stinking buttz for kerry suicide attempts he is doing to compromise Israel & ppl. Touch the eye of a POWERFUL God is 100% lethal! We know it and realize we WILL be judged!.
15. 9 He was fighting PLO violence like in Prague today.
(01.01.14)
16. Sharon was a hero and he will now be rewarded.
(01.01.14)
17. I will always cherish the grim look on Sharon's face...
Michael Dally ,   Lebanese Christian   (01.01.14)
When the Israeli military headquarters in Tyre, Lebanon, blew up killing more than 160 intelligence officers. As usual, Israelis blamed it on a gas leak, only to have Hezbollah expose their lies by releasing footage of Ahmad Kaseer driving his car into the military headquarters seconds before the explosion.
18. 1 Sharon saved Israel in 1973. You should be grateful.
(01.01.14)
19. 9 Pal massacred Israelis with boats and rockets from Lebanon
Yahudi   (01.01.14)
20. Time to go!
michael Pielet ,   israel   (01.01.14)
Sharon, greatest General, worst Prime Minister. It has been a great last 9 years, 2005-2014. Time to say good bye.
21. #9
Badbob ,   NYC USA   (01.01.14)
He was in fine health when he fought for Israel even though he was huge and a real health risk. This only happened once he became the person who was on track to give you blood thirsty people a state.
22. Thank you Sharon
Chanan ,   FL, USA   (01.01.14)
For the good and the bad. For the years in which you lived up to your name. Aryeh kEl and fought bravely for your people. Thank you also for the lesson that you taught us of what happens when you displace Jews to give land to the enemy. There is a strong possibility that God feels mercy for this man and his sin is paid for on this earth instead of the afterlife. Then again I am not a "very" learned Talmid.
23. Rabbi Yitzhak Kaduri said the Messiah would come soon after
Hallelu yah ,   Israel   (01.01.14)
Sharon's death. Kerry is on his way to Israel to shove a PA state down our throats but HaShem has other ideas!!!!!!!
24. My darling General and Prime Minister, you must get well.
Rivkah   (01.01.14)
You are beloved of HaShem and when you are gone, the Covenant with Death for Israel might be signed that SEC STATE John Kerry is trying to force Israel to agree to. You are a protection for many because of HaShem's love for you. Heme-dialysis is awful but the peritoneal abdominal dialysis is not so bad. A girlfriend who is raising two grandchildren who are in elementary school has been on peritoneal dialysis for five years and may be on it another five years because of her unusual blood type. She says it is not so bad. So you must go on, too. I know the physicians are doping you up with haloperidol and/or other sedatives because you are not in a coma except one that is drug induced in my opinion. Remember when the sedatives are stopped around 4 AM and you are awake and can send your love telepathically to your loved ones? That means it is a drug induced coma and needs to be stopped. You can go on as a protector for the nation, just as Shimon Peres can and must go on since both of you are greatly loved by HaShem. Don't leave us. Bibi needs you to pray for him since he is being pressured as you were in 2005 to give up land for peace. Your prayers reach so many. When I was in Israel, I would talk to Israeli women about the love I felt from you and they would say they felt it, too. It is your gift to the nation. Don't take that from the people who draw strength from your prayers for the nation.
25. #17 Now Lebanese civilians look grim
Sam ,   USA   (01.01.14)
With Syrian war planes attacking on Lebanese land and buildings blowing up. All thanks to your beloved Nasrallah working as a lapdog for Iran.
26. 13.
Birdi ,   Israel   (01.01.14)
Amen.
27. God Bless
Walid Haddad ,   Beirut, LB   (01.01.14)
We will always remember the general as a true friend of the Christian-Lebanese community. God Bless.
28. There is no other leader I love and admire like him
tony ,   atlanta US   (01.01.14)
Aric you were one hell of a leader. Even if I am not from your country I love you and respect you! The israel we know today exists because of your fightings against the enemy. Some they don't agree with your action about leaving Gaza but I'm sure you had a reason to do that. Let God bring rest to your soul and body. You have suffered enough aba!
29. With due respect....why keep someone alive so long?
American Hindu ,   USA   (01.02.14)
In 1973 Mr. Sharon's courage and skill as a military man saved Israel. Understand that he is great hero to many. But why keep someone at his age alive so long, when there is no hope of a recovery? I would not want that for myself.
30. If Arik "played nice" ...?
ASTRONAUT ,   SC, USA   (01.02.14)
Sharon was a WARRIOR facing WARRIORS whose sole objective was the DEMISE OF AM YISRAEL. Arafat and his "p.l.o." were lying DOGS. SHARON DID WHAT HE HAD TO DO: Cut the snake off at the head. What: you think the PLO would have "spared innocent Israeli women and children??!!!" You nudniks!!!
