The End Of Olmert?

Olmert's attempt to divide Jerusalem while qassams fall on Sderot women and children looks to be cause for threats by Shas:

Shas chairman Eli Yishai indicated on Monday that his party's days in the government were numbered, due to The Jerusalem Post's story that the Palestinian and Israeli negotiating teams were conducting secret talks on the future of Jerusalem.

Yishai told reporters who attended his faction's weekly meeting that he would speak about the story in Sunday's paper with Prime Minister Ehud Olmert and Foreign Minister Tzipi Livni.

He had not spoken to either one by press time and the Olmert associates he did reach downplayed the report.

"I will check the story and if it's true, Shas will leave the government," Yishai told the Post.

Shas is all about making empty threats to get more government funding for religious schools and its agenda, just as empty as Laborite threats to bolt over Winograd.

The only way to get Olmert out of power at this point is to name a square after him, eh.

plum:

I read a quip recently (sorry, can't find the link) that said "'Ehud Olmert' is Hebrew for 'Neville Chamberlain'". I thought that was a good one.
