What will Sharon loose? As much as many people hate him, he has been a member of the Israeli hierarchy for more then 50 years. Sharon is an elected offical, and I'd say moreso then Arafat is. Arafat has pretty much had a choke on Palestinian power since 1967', Sharon has paid his dues and worked his way to the top. Sharon hasn't embezzled money from his people and invoked hatred to perpetuate the horrible cycle ( at the same time I won't argue that he has not helped it any with the settlements). Despite how big of a douche bag Sharon may be he is a genuine hero of the Israeli people. He has been fighting for their cause since the fight for independence through every major armed conflict up through Lebanon, unlike Arafat he has always been on the frontlines.
