JPost Scrubs Relatively Honest Summary Of Winograd Commission's Comments On Peretz
In this post, Israel Matzav has this link going to an article that is supposed to say this:
That article definitely existed at one time...
... but that link doesn't have anything like that paragraph now. Too bad - it's obviously and brutally true. We'd go back and gloat about how absurd it was for Ha'aretz to cheer when he beat Peres, thereby unseating one of Israel's most successful Defense Ministers (who if nothing else knew that the IDF was unprepared), shattering a unity government that was shepherding Israel through the Second Intifada, and leading to the miserable situation that Israel finds itself in today. But honestly, it just kind of makes us sad. One parting quote from the Winograd Commission Report:
No kidding.
