This is not the Sharon the people were told they were voting for.
Almost nobody in Israel was in favor of the withdrawal. Sharon accomplished it by strong arm tactics, sweeping aside all opposition. Meanwhile Bibi pretended to be against the whole thing but, instead of helping the Knesset opponents of the plan following his resignation, he flew off the the States to raise funds for his personal bid for Likud leadership (as he did years ago when the Likud was getting clobbered by Labor). But at least he can claim he wasn't part of the withdrawal fiasco...
Does anyone really think that Israel will benefit from the creation of an unhindered terrorist stronghold (watched by whom...Palestinian and Egyptian security)?
And did somebody mention Peres?? Labor?!? Have you forgotten that Barak tried to give the whole country to arch-terrorist Yasir? If Labor were in power we'd all be swimming for the States.
Let's not be so naive...please. Things are not looking good.
