2. If he is found guilty he should be hung
Al   (09.25.09)
I never understood why the families of the ones who were beaten up in Amona never tried to sue him. Well with 70K lawyers in Israel I thing it is about time. This low life is an outrage and a testament to the fact that the Israeli political system was hijacked by usurpers and carpetbaggers. Its time for major political change.

Rishon Tours is most likely and open and shut case, because it doesn't depend on testimony, since all the documentation exists. Jail time is mandatory if found guilty of Rishon Tours. Jane

8. OF COURSE Olmert will come out innocent!
Shalom   (09.25.09)
He's not Chareidi. He's not Sephardic. He's not Religious. He's a Leftist. He agrees with giving away all of Israel. The media supports him. So why accuse him of guilt? There's no purpose to accuse him.
9. Innocent until proven guilty
Steve   (09.25.09)
It is shameful that so many people are assuming that Ehud Olmert is automatically guilty. The very foundation of the legal system of many countries, including Israel, is that anyone accused of an offence has the right to be presumed innocent until proven guilty in a fair trial. Ehud Olmert's trial has not finished. He has not been found guilty of anything. If you were in his position, you would want to be treated fairly and be presumed innocent. As things stand, Mr. Olmert is still not guilty.

11. Justice is applied much better in Iran #7 for Al Mehdi
Genuine Tosefta ,   Tveria   (09.25.09)
Islamic condoned rape, torture, murder, stoning of women, polygamy, hanging Bahais and gays are never punished in Iran, much less so stealing of many billions of dollars from Iranian people by high ranking Muslim clerics and others in power Olmert received expensive pens as gift bribes and may have taken a few personal flights at public expense, and may go to jail for this. Not a big fan of Olmert but there is a big difference between that and the crimes against humanity committed by the Iranian regime on behalf of one stupid toddler Al Mehdi

Zohar can blow his horn all he wants but the facts are overwhelming on the tours case of rippoff. You will go down on tours along with lover girl zaken whose loyalty to you is sickening. You will beat the talansky case as he is an unreliable witness. Ehud, you are going to jail, to join hirschson probably for 5-6 years. Visitors are allowed, your wife who took tours trips also, goldstone who condemned israel for war crimes, ramon who sexually assaulted a soldier and who can bring you drinks, livni who sat like a dumbbell as you sold out the state and lost the hezbollah war to, your nakba friends abbas and erekat who you sold the state to, winograd who tried to give you a break in the hezbollah war in spite of calling you a failure in the interim report. You can sit and rot in jail because you'll have plenty of time to think it over. As for comeback, the whole of the state of israel will reject you like the cheap crook that you are. Look for jail clothes,striped ones cause you will need them. After appeals from the guilty verdict and the jial term of 5=6 years, you will be about 71 when you leave jail.There will be plenty of cigars awaiting you and a big bash with all your friends-hirschson, ramon, dekeld, turgeman and turbowicz who almost handed the golan to the king of terror assad using israel hater erdogan as intermediary, zaken and risbi-your harem girls, possibly your wife but who knows and what ever other dregs and scum of society want to show up.
15. olmert bbc interview
geroge   (09.25.09)
Okay, olmert is before the court and is looking at long jail term.He absolutley is convinced that the state cannot prove his guilt beyond a reasonable doubt and that he will not go to jail. Just like he was convinced that he would defeat hezbollah and get back idf captives and that didn't work out you dumbbell. Now he tries to take israel down the drain with him as he will no doubt, no doubt be convicted on the tours case not withstanding that barnea, winograd, dror, ramon, turgeman and turbowicz want him to be acquitted. He is pleading with mitchell, obama and abbas to accept his proposed sellout to him as a starting point thus recognizing the right of return and jeapordizing its security. This same olmert, lets see for some strange reason he was a press officer in the idf , don't ask me what happened but he didn't do combat service because of some kind of injury and records of his service are difficult to obtain. He has a son ariel at the sorbonne in the arts in paris france who avoided idf service, another son shaul in new york,who does not do idf reserve duties, daughter dana of machsom watch who is in bed with nakba, and a wife alizia of holocaust family who protests idf right of self defense, yet has no problem taking european holidays off the charity money given by holocaust charities according to the police. What a disgusting pathetic family! Hopefully Olmert will serve years in jail where he will meet arab terrorists, rapists, psychotic murderers. He can go to sleep on it, thinking about it.
