1. Don`t worry, Amir...
Manny ,   NY, USA   (01.08.07)
If you lose your job, you can always get a position as an executive with Advocates for Idiots. You`re aptly qualified. And, when all else fails, you`ll always have your moustache.
2. A lot of good people got disengaged
Steve ,   USA   (01.08.07)
B"H A lot of good people got disengaged ... so it must be time to jump over to Kadima. Join Shimon. Peres and Peretz, what a duo! But give a little sympathy to whose houses you intended to smash. Their houses are not so different than your own, and the sharks have come back on you like they did on them. Realize this situation and rectify it as soon as possible. You still have the authority to reverse the chaos! You have a house left in Sderot. Defend it before it is too late!
3. sources close to Peretz told Ynet,
.........DACON9   (01.08.07)
"sources close to Peretz told YnetHe has the wrong people near him, and therefore he’s making all possible errors,He is a brilliant and wonderful man who is suited to run the country,....." these sourses are the very ones close to peretz, kind of self incriminating... and..... leaders are not suppose to be nice. they are suppose to have the ability to choose people to run the country,each in their respective field. peretz, by their own words failed by having the wrong people around him. Peretz hired/appointed those people. peeretz is a failed leader by his job performance and obviously not fit for the job.In a private corporation he would have been fired. HIs performance speaks for itself. Those people 'close to him' should go back to raising children and get out of any government position. olmert failed peretz failed barak failed sharon failed bibi gave nice speeches. time for a change to... right wing torah observant..tough man.
4. EVERYTHING IS GOING ACCORDING TO PLAN!
stude ham ,   outremont, canada   (01.08.07)
Peretz has no option other than to be kicked out. His incompetence was unfortunately proved only too well last July at the cost of hundereds of Israeli lives.
5. Punishment
Sagi ,   Israel   (01.08.07)
Peretz "shut down the country" when he was Gen. Sec. Now the country will "shut down Peretz". The country lost billions,Peretz will lose his dignity. All the world is a narrow bridge.
6. Brilliant and Wonderful Man my Foot.
Esther ,   Ofarim, Israel   (01.08.07)
May he vanish into oblivion and take all the Labor Has-Beens with him!
7. New Slogan: LOSE WITH LABOUR
Terry ,   Eilat - Israel   (01.08.07)
If political slogans were required to be truthful, LOSE WITH LABOUR would be the right slogan for this bunch of losers. Meretz could use SURRENDER NOW!. And Kadima, I DON'T HAVE A CLUE. Where else could these bozos find a job except in politics?
8. I impatiently await
Sagi ,   Israel   (01.08.07)
the day for the headline, Olmert - all is collapsing.
9. Peretz the fool
jeremy ,   kibbutz in the north   (01.08.07)
Peretz or poor poor boy. He is making mistakes because he isn't cut out to play in the big leagues. Peretz has made nothing but mistake abone mistake. It is about time he faces up to the fact that after party elections are held he will be going home to the rock he crawed out of. He will be losing his Ministry when the report comes out. Bye, Bye Peretz
10. Peretz the Cry Baby
Jeremy ,   Upper Galilee   (01.08.07)
Peretz blames everyone for his troubles but the person that really caused them. Yesterday, he blamed the Finance Minister and Prim Minister. Today, he is crying over these faults. The truth of the matter is, he has no one to blame but himself. Peretz GO HOME YOU LOSER
11. the problem
Michael ,   Haifa   (01.08.07)
The problem is that, at the next elections. we shall be faced with a choice between two certifiable megalomaniacs...Barak and Netanyahu
12. Peretz should not have taken Defense
Gabi   (01.08.07)
Peretz did not step up and take care of biz......but did anyone really expect him to? Too bad, Israel needs some more Sephardi in prominent roles.
13. If a building is about to collapse
Sagi ,   Israel   (01.08.07)
is there a committee that decides it can wait for 5 months ? Peretz, collapse now please, and let us rummage through the rubble and find ourselves again. We will build anew.
14. 'brilliant man falling into every pit'. - hmmm
redmike ,   tel aviv - Israel   (01.08.07)
15. #2 " jump over to Kadima" out of the frying pan he he he :-)
redmike ,   israel   (01.08.07)
Kadima will be a small minority party in the next elections. A large percentage of people that voted for them now regret their mistake. So why 'jump over to Kadima'. ? Or maybe I missed the humor ?
16. peretz
sas ,   israel   (01.08.07)
if all is falling apart - RESIGN. it's not fair to the country.
17. All is collapsing
dan ,   Israel   (01.08.07)
The basic question remains unanswered. Is the whole lot out there in the “Knesset” is trustworthy? Is there any one strong enough to take any decision? On Hezbollah? On Palestinians? On Iran? On Gilad Shelit? On other two in Lebanon? On our own financial stability? As far as their own salaries are concerned they took immediate action! Why not on other matters?
18. Left, Right, Down
Not Religious ,   Israel   (01.08.07)
Unless the Labor party moves to the right it will continue to go down, down, down. Yehuda and Shomron will remain is Israel's hands as written in the prophesies of the Tanach, which are not politcal.
19. All is Collapsing...
Norway   (01.08.07)
Christendom is Collapsing... Let the blessing come ... upon the head of Joseph and upon the crown of the head of him (of he) that is prince (who was separated from his brothers) among his brethren His firstling bullock... (A souvereignity is his ox-like one) majesty is his and his horns (his glory) are the horns of the wild-ox (will be like the horns of a re’eim) with them he shall gore the peoples all of them (nations together) even the ends of the earth and they are the ten thousands of Ephraim and they are the thousands of Manasseh. Deut 33 And their prince... shall be of themselves and their ruler shall proceed from the midst of them... and I will cause him to draw near and he shall approach unto Me for who is he that hath pledged his heart to approach unto Me? saith the L*RD.” Jer. 30:21 Here goes the Trinity...
20. Amir Peretz: a boy sent to do a man's job
(01.08.07)
21. Perhaps Because he is Sephardic vs. Ashkenazi of Majority
Tayfun_Turkey ,   Istanbul   (01.08.07)
22. We all want Barak
moprdechai ,   jerusalem   (01.08.07)
That Ben Eliezer and Simchon are in the Barak camp is nothing new. They've been there all the time. At least we see that they wre loyal to someone who significantly helped them. We in the Likud finally have something in common with Meretz. We are both cheering for a Barak victory.
23. # 21 Tayfun
Sagi ,   Israel   (01.08.07)
This has nothing to do with ethnicity. Jews are Jews are Jews, period. Politely I would like to say to you, stop sticking your nose into our business and trying to stir up trouble.
24. Part of good leadership is picking the right subordinates
NL ,   Israel   (01.08.07)
The fact that Peretz picks incompetents to surround him - who make constant, detrimental mistakes - says a lot about his leadership skills - and none of what is said is good. As to Peretz's ability to run the country well, are we supposed to take his job at the Histadrut as an example? Yes, he may have temporarily helped a small subset of the population in his particular gang get higher salaries, but, he lost the country billions with all of his strikes, leading to inflation, leading to a situation in which the newly heightened salaries were worth less. Maybe Peretz is a nice guy. Maybe he's even a brilliant guy. But he's certainly not savvy enough to run the country because he has proven over and over how incapable he is of seeing the big picture.
25. Wrong people in Peretz's office? Yeah, Peretz!
Chanan ,   USA   (01.08.07)
