>Joe, the only reason I criticize the Likud party and not just Sharon is because the ultra right in the party are pushing him to be as aggressive as possible in the W.B. Sharon is responsible to a coalition but it seems that the Likud voice is the strongest within that coalition.

Ummm...believe it or not, many in Labor are pushing him to be aggressive as well. The Defense Minister, Benjamin Ben-Eliezer, is a member of Labor, and he supports the incursions 100%, as do many Democrats in the U.S.


Z, I believe you but believe it or not, the ultra right wing of the Likud party has pushed for more aggressive action than is being done at any given time...more than most Labor party or Democratic party members are expecting. For an example, when Sharon agreed to withdraw, it was the ultra right wing who threated to blow up the coalition if he did not retract that position. They also wanted Arafat to be arrested. They want an extremely aggressive posture taken by the Israeli in their dealings with the WB.
