I think Sharon is a hero to the Isreali's who support his hardline actions. Recently though in the Juresalem Post even though most people support him as the leader,the Isreali's are increasingly becoming disenfranchised by the violence that can't be controlled, the illegal settlements that most Isreali's now see as an equal obsticle to peace,corruption charges against him and dealing with terrorists behind closed doors. The only power Sharon has is in not giving into a Palestinian state. Once that happens all his actions to avoid that will become moot. Palestinian statehood = Sharon out of power.
