On May 2, 2004, the largest direct democratic event ever that was not an election took place in Israel.
About 100,000 Likud officials went out to decide - for or against the disengagement plan.
The results were unequivocal.
Sharon was defeated.
59.5% voted against the deportation plan against 39.7% who supported it.
We all know what happened next.
Sharon put a check on the functionaries, beeped at their clear decision, and carried out the disengagement plan in full in the summer of 2005.
Today 140 thousand Likud officials will go to choose the party list for the Knesset.
One of the contestants is Gilad Sharon, who testified himself "I am the one who suggested the separation to Dad".
To this day, Sharon the son refuses to apologize for the deportation and admit his mistake.
In the upcoming edition of the Even Shushan dictionary, it seems to me that under the entry "Insolence" Gilad Sharon's picture should appear.
The man who, along with the other members of the Farm Forum, did not count the Likud officials, is now asking them to vote for him.
Where does the forehead come from?
And another point about the man.
I recently spoke with an active Likud member.
He told me that it is clear to him that Gilad is a Trojan horse in the party.
that once he is elected, his loyalty will be solely to himself, not to the functionaries, not to the values and certainly not to the chairman of the party.
If you try to imagine a situation of rebellion in the party, you can see before your eyes Sharon the son leading it.
If he gets an offer to be a minister in the government under Lapid or Gantz, do you think anything will stop him?
In the last year, the Likudniks have vowed not to forget and not to forgive Bennett and Shaked (in my view, rightly so).
Today they have an opportunity to show that these are not empty words.
that they really do not intend to forget or forgive those who cheated them, who humiliated them, who broke up their party.
For those who expelled Jews from the Land of Israel and the results of the foolish move he initiated we only saw last weekend in Gaza.
were we wrong
We will fix it!
