At the end of my time, I hope that I will able to feel that I have contributed to Israel { YES, with ALL of its faults) using Ariel Sharon's contribution as my standard.

you could not even reach sharon's ankles. keep your poisoned words to yourself.

Alan: Your nonsense about President Obama and "crocodile tears" is completely out of line and in poor taste. This is neither the occasion or the moment to use this forum as a platform for your hate of the president.

hates him?? Phuleez!!! Everyone knows he loathes Israel and her leaders. If Sharon were alive today, he would have tore him up exposing his lack of leadership skills. This ain't no hate speech my friend--these are just the plain facts.

You are the one who is out line for defending an enemy of Israel under any circumstances, especially in a forum pertaining to Ariel Sharon, the greatest warrior since Judah Maccabbee.

That's how Obama paid respect to Nelson Mandela.

One of the greatest military strategists in history is gone. His dedication to Israel is undeniable even as many people could not understand his brilliance and cunning.

Baruch Dayan Emet,

He should be respectfully permitted to wait outside, together with a low level representative of the PA who heard that he may be able to take advantage of the opportunity in order to recieve an extra handout from the U S of A.
