Olmert Sees Support Slip for Conduct of Lebanon War, Poll Shows Aug. 11 (Bloomberg) -- Prime Minister Ehud Olmert saw support among Israelis for his conduct of the Lebanon war fall from earlier levels, a poll in the Yediot Ahronot newspaper showed today. The poll, conducted for the daily by the Dahaf Institute, found that 66 percent of 500 adults questioned rated his performance as ``good,'' compared with 31 percent who termed it ``not good,'' the newspaper said. That compared with 71 percent who rated Olmert's conduct as ``very good'' or ``pretty good'' in a similar survey published July 28 and 78 percent in a July 18 poll. I am not surprised. I posted to Ten earlier and told him that we are early; that more and more people would come to understand our POV.......even Israelis. How can an informed, sane, reasonably intelligent adult come to any other conclusion? As for Olmert, he's an acting PM and so is trying to establish a dynamic, fiery, charismatic rep ala Sharon. However, that does not come by acquisition, it has to already be there. So he is starting to stumble. While the UN now has an accepted peace plan, Olmert is expanding the scope of the war. He's a fool.......I don't think he will be acting too much longer.
