Shaul Mofaz's
self-imposed break from politics may
end sooner than expected: The transportation minister, who recently lost the Kadima primaries to Foreign Minister Tzipi Livni, told supporters who gathered at his home Thursday evening "I do not plan on leaving
any one of you. Together we will do great things in this country".
"The personal time I am taking off is necessary and I will reach a decision in line with the spirit of my remarks tonight," Mofaz said, "together we will influence the State of Israel. May God give us the strength and courage to make the right decisions and implement them correctly and also bring hope to the people of Israel."
The former IDF chief of staff added "I do not plan to make any announcement today, but I will say this - your mobilization and the fact that you all came here tonight will greatly affect my decision.
"I am not going anywhere. Last week I said I was in Kadima, where I will remain. A man is entitled to take time off to assess matters. This is totally legitimate," Mofaz said.
