IRIS notes that Tzachi Hanegbi (Kadima) is speaking out against the disengagement. He uses that news to imply there may have been something inappropriate about firing Major-General Yiftah Tal-Gan for also speaking out against the disengagement. (1) Just because the most crooked politician in Israel has said something asinine doesn't mean that military figures get to do the same thing. Politicians are supposed to say stupid, politically popular things. On the other hand, it's actually dangerous to have military strategists believing stupid, politically popular things (2) This is a facile comparison - Ron-Tal was fired precisely because military officials aren't supposed to be political like politicians. That he was echoing / is being echoed by politicians is exactly why he was fired, not evidence that there was something inappropriate about it.

UPDATE: Appropriate mockery at Israelity.
