If I may intrude...

Sharon seems to have been elected, presumably to bring 'stability and security' to Israel...

Somehow, I can't see the ME being brought to peace by having an unrepentant Zionist keen to see lebensraum* carved out of its neighbours.
*And I use that term with every bitterly ironical overtone.

Meanwhile, can anyone think of an Israeli leader more likely to convince the Palestinians - and especially their own most extreme elements - that they have absolutely nothing left to lose?
