Jonathan Lis, Haaretz Correspondent: Police: Olmert quitting because he knows we have him
Talkback
Title:Olmert must be suspended, kept in Israel to avoid flight
Name:Dr. L. Brnd
City: San DiegoState: USA
A disgruntled and vindictive Olmert could - and probably would - compromise Israel`s security by disclosing state secrets is he is allowed to flee into exile to escape indictment. A tell-all book to finance his lavish living style. Worse than another Vanunu. Plus, he must be kept in Israel until it is certain the bribes he was receiving were not payment for services to a foreign power laundering cash through the Talansky pipeline. This could be much worse than a mere incompetent and corrupt PM when all the dirt is finally sifted. Olmert, with his lavish tastes and family safely living abroad is a perfect candidate for a Quisling. Fighting on to "clear his name", Olmert announces?? Yeah, sure, just like OJ claiming to be hunting for his wife`s "real killer"!
