UN Resolution 1701?
Now we have UN Resolution 1701 which calls for the implementation of UN Resolution 1559, which calls for the disarming of Hezbollah. One day we will have another UN Resolution that will call for the implementation of Resolution 1701, which calls for the implementation of Resolution 1559. And so on, and so on, and so on. And, in between Resolutions, more innocent Jewish people will be brutally slaughtered in the State of Israel, and three IDF Soldiers, Gilad Shalit, Ehud Goldwasser and Eldad Regev, will disappear into memory, never to be seen again.
The Worst Government in the History of Israel by Naomi Ragen
We finished a quiet Sabbath in the relative safety of Jerusalem, only to check the news and find out the heartbreaking news that seven more Israeli soldiers have been killed and eight-four injured in the worst-led war in Israel's history.
In addition, the government who interfered with the military (i.e.go win the war without upsetting CNN and the BBC), imposing guidelines that have helped get not only our boys killed left and right, but our civilians as well, has now decided to accept a Security Council resolution which ensures that Israel's soldiers and her people have made their ultimate sacrifice for nothing: our kidnapped soldiers will not be returned. Hezbollah will not be disarmed. And Israeli forces will be replaced by some U.N. force and a bunch of European anti-Semites who will allow Hezbollah to rearm.
The full text of the resolution has been published in YNET. So far, 1,784 Israelis have responded. The overwhelming majority have this to say:
We went to war to free our kidnapped soldiers. Why aren't they mentioned? For shame. Olmert, Peretz, Halutz, the triumvirate of losers.
Let me add this: Mr. Olmert, Mr. Peretz, Mr. Halutz: You have squandered the lives of our soldiers. You have squandered our opportunity to free the nation of Israel from a deadly enemy. You have set the stage for the next war. By September, we will be under attack once more. Do the decent thing: Resign, all of you, and let Mr. Netanyahu, General Alon (who was kicked out because he refused to go along with the disengagement) take over. Resign Mr. Olmert. Resign in shame for your incompetence. Your inability to carry out a single one of the objectives you so stirringly announced at the beginning of this war. With all of you and your incompetent Kadima-led government out of office, we will all be safer and better prepared when the rockets start to fall once again, as they inevitably will with the U.N. and the French guarding our borders.
And if you won't do the honorable thing, we will do everything we can to get you fired. You make me sick. I am ashamed to be a citizen of my country under your leadership. I am appalled to have a son in the IDF under your leadership. For shame, for shame, for shame!

in japan leaders like this would have committed hara kiri but they have no shame and won't resign, they can only be kicked out of office like peres was

Our enemies claim victory, they celebrate the weakening of what was once a mighty army and they plan the next attack.
Now Olmert can get back to the business of expelling Jewish people from Jewish land.
My heart hurts.

mine too but evil does not prevail
olmert is just repeating peres' pattern and peres lost after the grapes of wrath 10 years ago
despite all the phony polls I don't see kadima surviving this, the sharon legacy they rode in on has been buried in a new lebanon, disengagement is being acknowledged a failure even by many of its supporters, see hillel halkin's jpost piece... what else does kadima have to offer as bait or distraction
