Nachum says it like it really is, but Nachum dont be affraid to call a spade ...a spade. At this point there is no reason to be diplomatic about these 2 gentelmen.
2. Ynet and other newspapers are the winners
Mike ,   Haifa   (06.25.08)
There will be NO primaries. Forget about this stupid stuff. Olmert will never remove himself and Livni and Mofaz are silly 2 boys/girls. As to Barak, he and his friend will get paid off. No ego, nothing. They have support of all newspapers, drinking and eating and having fun all day. Olmert will go away only after another war with 2,000 dead, which is not clear if Barak wonts it now.
3. ohlmert/barak
sas ,   israel   (06.25.08)
they both need to go home and the sooner the better. they should take livni with them. she's a total failure and has ruined the MFA 100%. it's depressing to see the country go downhill. my grandchildren will NOT serve in the army. I will do everything to get them out of here. one cannot trust the army and their leaders.

Hope to see them at the parade, Olmert dressed as Field-Marshal, and Barak like a crook (Olmert).
6. THEY ARE LIKE ARAB LEADERS
SAWSAN ,   JERUSALEM   (06.26.08)
DECISIONS WITHOUT ABILITIES BUT I THINK THEY WILL FALL MORE TO NO DECISIONS NO ABILITIES IT IS THE LOSS
7. Common trait
Reuven ,   New York   (06.26.08)
Olmert & Barak have one thing in common. They never learn from their own mistakes and each other's mistakes. Barak as a prime minister was an unmitigated disaster and was unceremoniously tossed out by the people. Had Arafat accepted all of Barak's concessions, Israel would have been in a much worse state than it is today. Syria would have the Golan, Hamas or Fatah would have almost the entire West Bank, hundreds of thousands of Israelis would be homeless and others would be subject to bombings, Jerusalem would have been divided, and Hezbullah could do what it wanted on the Northern border. Olmert, after playing a pivotal role in evicting thousands of Jews for no apparent gain and bungling the war with Hezbullah, seeks to repeat Barak's mistakes by giving up the Golan, evicting more Jews, giving up Sheba Farms, etc. And Barak after seeing Olmert's errors has also learned nothing and is complicit in Olmert's moves.
