He's already raped the State of Israel many times (e.g. Oslo and the ensuing terror war) by furthering the policies of our enemies, and will continue serially if permitted. Penguins beware - his man ain't your friend.

They had a duty to the Jewish Nation to pull the plug on the government after the Lebanon surrender. Instead they chose to eat budgetary pork from Olmert's table. Instead of being heroes they sided with the TRAITORS.

WE NEVER NEEDED OSLO FROM YOU AND IT PROVED TO BE A FAR FAR WORSE THING THAN EVER CONCEIVABLY POSSIBLE. STAY AWAY FROM US!!!

i hope he moves into an old age home instead of becoming president.

Peres is the most coward of the current hunta of Olmert-Peretz-Livni_Shas. Who voted for these people? Can they just leave Israel for good with their Arab Mk Beshara.

Mr. Shimon Peres, in August 2007 you will become 84 years old! The tenure of Israel’s Presidency is 7 years. - The State’s Presidency is a very representative position which has to be filled in by persons whose bonafide in every respect is untouchable - Your claim to represent the Jews of the world is based on what law? - At the end of the tenure provided you will be physically able to fulfill the term you would be 91 years old. - A blessed age for any person of full mental and physical conditions, unfortunately nobody can give you this needed guarantee.

Its clear that neither of these two Gentlemen care one ounce about Israel or the wider Jewish world. It seems clear that Israel is a country where corruption is at eperdemic proportions.

what about the jews here in israel....no jobs...no housing...nothing...he does not care about them...only about jews he can use for his own gain....not only him...the whole government

On what knowledge do you say that Rav Ovadia has no care for Israel? This great Torah Scholar has dedicated his life to creating and promoting religious education and fighting poverty, with great sucess. You think that there are greater gifts that bind the Jewish people together? As for Shimon ! by all means disagree with his views, I think he is to much of a dreamer, but to say he dosn't care! He does. Your comments say a lot more about you then any of these distinguished Gentleman.

and I love you, and I wont-------------

NOT president of Israel. Before 95 I had outmost respect for the guy. I can NOT forgive him.

PERES IS A LOW LIFE WHO SOLD OUT HIS PEOPLE OVER AND OVER AGAIN.

YOU AND YOUR SHAS PARTY HAVE BECOME LOW LIFES LIKE PERES.

so much trouble. We can not get rid of the old ones in this country.Let them retire and shut up. We do not need the fate of our country in the hands of two draft dodging senile fools.

Ovadia Yosef is one of the top Jewish leaders in our time. He is a renowned Torah scholar and respected commentator on Halacha - many of you will never rise to such heights. I suggest you respect our sages, and have faith in their decisions.

It would be a waste to make him a President. He should remain a MP. BTW he post of President is a waste of money. I wonder why have all that ceremonial functions in the first place when Israel is at war all the time. Rabbi Ovadia Yosef could take the post without additional salary !

I hope Rav Ovadiah's next stop after that handshake was the mikveh!!! Truthfully, i din't know how the rav can just meeting with a sheretz like peres. peres is the erev rav! He represents the worst our country has to offer. In any normal country someone like him, who has been wrong about EVERYthing he ever did, who has SO MUCH Jewish blood on his hands, would be hiding in shame, NOT running for president!!!

you only work for yourself. your whole peace institution is on bluff. give an example of what you have done besides giving speeches about what you plan to do. GO HOME n STAY THERE.

to be honest with you , you were worse than arafat for israel.please give up and go to a place called SHALVATA"" in magdiel.ask around about it, and go stay there for ever.they will treat you like a PRESIDENT

STAY HOME

As usual, at 82 years of age, we can expect Peres to do what he has been doing for the last ca. 65 years, to work for Shimon Peres. We could do with a female president, one who has not been accused of molesting women and not been involved in shady deals or improper behavior, as a counterpart to members of the government. We'll get Peres instead, I'm sure.
