Ariel Sharon dead

In truth he's been pretty much dead for 7 years, but now he's officially dead.

Was about to post one. Only just realised that the ipad doesn't show full links until you highlight them.

I won't be shedding a tear I'm afraid (i'm not a fan at all) but I still wish his family my condolences.

His soap powder is pretty good, as was his military career.

Watch the Western media fawn over this terrorist who oversaw the ethnic cleansing of Palestinians at Shatila and who waged his racist wars against the world. Too bad the West is run by his ilk - otherwise he would have seen a trial at the Hague as a war criminal.

His role in 9/11 remains to be seen as Israeli intelligence operatives were arrested at the scene filming and laughing.

The sheeple will defend him like they did Mandela. Start thinking for yourselves.

Glad that he's finally found rest.

I thought that was because he saved the world from the evil racist whites?
Only to introduce a black racist state - which then failed

I think the moral here is to ignore Bono

Don't tell me what to do, maaann.

I know it's hard for you to believe but plenty of people think for themselves, even the ones with views that differ from yours

Indeed but as much as I despise all that he and Israel stands for he is still is a man with family and as such we shouldn't dance on his grave but offer peace to his family. Hate his policies his decisions and of course the lives he took, but no matter how much wrong he did in life he is out of reach of our criticism and just be left for annals of history and hope others learn from his errors.

wot? wot?
I am unaware of this. What do you mean?

Anyway, as for OP, I am sure his family are saddened by events. Peace be with them.

Time for Rabbi Kaduri's prophecy to be fullfilled?

I had no idea who he was until the other day when someone mentioned him on the forums (re; Michael Schumacher).

This:

A few months before Kaduri died at the age of 108, he surprised his followers when he told them that he met the Messiah. Kaduri gave a message in his synagogue on Yom Kippur, the Day of Atonement, teaching how to recognize the Messiah. He also mentioned that the Messiah would appear to Israel after Ariel Sharon’s death.
