On Friday, the main news story of the day was the sudden deterioration of former prime minister Ariel Sharon. In January 2006, Sharon suffered a massive stroke which has left him in a coma ever since. Most individuals would not have survived this long, but he is still with us. But the recent deterioration has left doctors surmising that he will not live much longer.
It is an opportunity to review the life and legacy of this man who for so much of Israel's history held positions of leadership and influence. Beginning in Israel's War of Independence in 1948, Sharon distinguished himself on the battlefield, rising to become one of Israel's most highly regarded generals. His bold moves in Israel's Yom Kippur War of 1973, remain controversial to this day, but there is no doubt that his military genius and courage were awe-inspiring.
