1. Why so few people?
Danon ,   London   (01.12.14)
It looks almost like only a handful. Is everyone expected tomorrow for the funeral or are most Israelis angry at him?
2. I suggest you ask the pople living in the southern
Al   (01.12.14)
part of the country to talk about Sharon's legacy. They may tell you a thing or two as to his wise 'withdrawal' from Gaza. Yes he was a great general, but a lousy politician whose legacy will be that he gave Gaza back to terrorists. The Gaza withdrawal will define his legacy, one of absolute failure.
3. to #1
Dov ben David ,   Eilat, Israel   (01.12.14)
Wait and learn!
4. Answer to why so few people
Ephraim ,   Jerusalem   (01.12.14)
1- There should have been a national day with no work so everyone could pay they respects. Bibi should have done this, but did not. 2- Most Israelis are very selfish. They worship the might shekel, so taking a day off work or business to honor a hero does not even come into their minds.
5. 4.
Birdi ,   Israel   (01.13.14)
Many Israelis cannot afford to take a day off work.
