Ariel Sharon - The Bulldozer rolls on. The Bulldozer rolls on. I do not remember one normal day. Anyone who has visited Israel recently knows that it has had countless normal days. Almost every day, in fact, is a normal day.
Normality is Israel's greatest achievement.
But the Israeli opposition leader cannot accept it. Israel has grown rich, powerful, and secure. Sharon fixates on the idea of Israeli weakness. Israel and the Palestinian Authority have lurched slowly toward a final peace, Israel has made peace with Jordan and Egypt. Sharon still imagines his nation as an island in a sea of hostile Arabs.
