Kadima party officials expressed concern Tuesday evening after media reports said the interim Winograd Report, to be published in April, will include a personal assessment of the wartime conduct of Kadima Prime Minister Ehud Olmert last summer.
“If the party members want to keep the party from falling apart, they must unite around the Prime Minister,” said one party member. “Only if the party stays united will it have a shot at surviving this period. Otherwise there is a chance that everything will fall to pieces,” he added.
Labor Defense Minister Amir Peretz and former IDF Chief of Staff Lt.-Gen. Dan Halutz will also be critiqued in the report by the Olmert-appointed Commission which was tasked with investigating the government’s mismanagement of the war against Hizbullah terrorists in Lebanon last summer.
