I wrote earlier about Ariel Sharon seemingly getting away with murder; killing thousands of Palestinians then dying a short and merciful death from stroke.
Fortunately he yet lives.
His capacities will be diminished and he won't regain his seat as Prime Minister. I can only hope that it leaves Israeli politician now fighting a three-way battle for Prime Ministership: Kadima, Labour and Likud. If we are extremely lucky there will be no strong enough Prime Minister and Israel is paralyzed politically as government after government fails.
I hope Ariel Sharon will have enough mental abilities to see all this happening while remembering that he could have pulled off a great political coup with Kadima and failed at the last minute. I hope he sees every failure of Israel and Israelis and it makes him bitter until the end.
Disappointment for a few months doesn't make up for the disappointment Palestinians have suffered for the last 57 years, but beggars can't be choosers. I hope his conscience weighs heavily. I hope our dead come to haunt him.
