All public officials can be chosen by using the lottery system. Winning number gets to be PM. We can have lotteries for all other positions as well. You think random chance wouldn't be an improvement? Think again.

Reuven predicts that no significant political changes will occur after the release of this report. No one will resign, either.

Earthquake is if Olmert stays in office. Everyone knows that he has to go. The left afraid to loose seats and perks for their families. The Arabs afraid that they would not get Jaffa and Jerusalem if Olmert leaves. Peace Now afraid that they will stop getting money from EU and Arabs. Everyone knows that Olmert is corrupt.

Nothing will happen. Olmert et al are relieved. Corruption-to the core, no one will rise up, there will not be any mass protests. Why? because the left has successfully brainwashed the dazed israeli that there are no better alternatives to this "leadership"... Mene, mene, tekel ufarsin.

Israel lost. The IDF failed. The "leader" remains in place. Beautiful.

ohlmert should go to court. he should be put behind bars for murdering innocent soldiers. the man was not/is not capable of being prime minister and the sooner he leaves his office the better off we all will be.

they don't represent Israel, they represent their rich oligarch friends

Did anyone seriously think that there would be any other outcome,to this whole stinking saga. These guys have been in office for decades and are very good at what they do.Which is burying their mistakes,and in this case Israeli soldiers.

I hope we see one. the entire government should resign. they all are either crooks or fools.

It was not the task of the Winograd commission to add to its report recommandations for a solution of the Israelo-Arab conflict. However, if we want to stop the killings and avoid future wars we should have the courage to consider realistic original solutions. One of these possibilities is described at : http://israelagainstterror.blogspot.com/2008/01/win-win-solution-to-arab-israeli_7104.html
