So what are our choices? We are stuck between 2 devils we know both of our own making - Olmert who is a crook and flawed, our very own creation - Barak who is a spoiler and a former war hero and former Prime Minister we once elected, also our very own creation. He doesn`t want this so-called peace process and so to prove it he`s ready to use massive disproportionate force against Palestinian civilians - innocent men women and children - to stop some rockets, instead of employing Sayeret Matkal and our other special units, about which he especially has expertise. We want peace, not war. We`re going to have to reach a deal with Hamas, like it or not. We just don`t have a leader capable of it and Barak doesn`t want it. Who else is there? Not Bibi. Please!
