The situation in Isreal

[DavidMn]

Well, I don't think this is any news but even if Ariel Sharon survives this stroke, he most likely wont be able to return to power. This throws the peace process into a very uncertain future of course. I would be interested in the considerate opinion of who people think would make a good replacement.

here are a few possibilities:

Benjamin Netanyahu
Shimon Peres: although he has said he's not interested
Ehud Barak, former prime minister
Sharon's right hand man and deputy priime minister Ehud Ohmert

I wont pretend to be any kind of expert on middle east politics, but it would seem to me that moving ahead the peace process would be a good idea. Maybe some of you have other ideas of who would be a good candidate. I'll be intetersted in reading your responses.
