Peres Challenges Sharon’s One-Man Rule
Excerpts;
“Peres, speaking on the Israeli television program Meet the Press, said he would have chosen candidates differently and that it was not necessary for Prime Minister Ariel Sharon to decide alone who will represent the Kadima party. Every other party holds primaries or designates its central committee to nominate candidates.”
“Peres’s aides later denied that he asked the Prime Minister to place him in the top 10 list of candidates. Peres refused to tell the television program which candidates have been nominated, but Channel Two television reported that Peres is in the first 10 on the list.”

Excerpts:
“Moshe Feiglin is set to hold a press conference Sunday where he’s expected to announce he is dropping out of the Likud primaries race.”
“Feiglin associates told Ynet the decision was taken after senior Likud figures told them recent changes in the party’s charter were meant to remove criminals, rather than Feiglin, from the Likud.”
“His associates said Friday that the press conference is aimed at ‘finally closing this chapter and coming down to terms with all those who exploited his power in the past and have recently tried to harm him.‘”
Avi Dichter to Kadima: The Politician Praises Expulsion, Former Shin Bet Head Knows Better …
Excerpts;
“Yes. Shin Bet Chief Avi Dichter knew full well that one has to consider considerably more than a few months of ‘numbers’ in order to get an indication if the retreat policy is panning out.”
“But politician Avi Dichter apparently has more important things to concern himself with than the truth. Things like not offending the man who will decide Dichter’s placement in the Kadima list or what cabinet post Dichter will get if Kadima’s performance at the ballot box comes close to its performance in the recent polls.”
