A mostly anti-Olmert opinion piece. I found the tone eloquent and philosophical, albeit somewhat unbalanced. The author illustrates his/her points with a lot of interesting historical anecdotes, whose accuracy is hard to verify. The author also makes a nice point about media fickleness: "This is the mob that idolized Moshe Dayan after the Six-day War, and then smashed his statue into pieces after the Yom-Kippur war. The mob that kicked David Ben-Gurion viciously after years of boundless flattery. That toppled Golda Meir after following her blindly. I certainly struggled against all three of them when they were at the height of their power, but the rush of the political mob to trample upon their bodies after they had fallen was simply loathsome."
