Gagged and Gagged No More
The Israeli Protest Movement has been gagged. Not only are loyal, patriotic citizens jailed or held in "house arrest" or exiled from their homes without any trial nor official charges, but those protesting are jailed, too.
When Olmert instigated his "excuses-only" Winograd Commission to "investigate" last summer's disastrous war with the Hezbollah in Lebanon, he envisioned the perfect mouthpiece for his double-talk and excuses. But now that Halutz resigned as IDF Chief of Staff, he's ready to spill the beans and blame the politicians, who have been tying the army's hands. He's not willing to take the blame; he'd rather take the whole lot down with him.
He's one general who's not going to fade away quietly.
