Prime Minister Ariel Sharon paid a condolence call to the Zar family last night in Mitzpeh Tzva’im, who is sitting shiva [the ritual mourning period] for their son and brother Gilad, who was murdered by Arab terrorists two days ago. The bereaved parents live in a lone, large house atop a hill outside Karnei Shomron. The visit was highly-charged, and the grieving family members demanded that the Prime Minister explain how much more blood would be spilled before the government ends its policy of restraint, makes war against the enemy, and prevents Jews from being killed. One of Gilad\'s sisters could not restrain herself from yelling, \"How much more blood?! We are sick of burying our dead, and we will not do it any longer! Where is the Arik who knows how to fight? I, who have never served a day in the army, have to tell you how to fight the enemy?!\" Sharon answered, “My blood is boiling right now, but I will come to the appropriate decision at the appropriate time.”



Sharon was also asked how is it that the architects and contractors of the Versailles Hall have been arrested and interrogated, while the architects and contractors of the Oslo agreements, which led to the deaths of hundreds of Jews, have not been questioned at all.
