Get rid of this moron who should be called the Indefensible Minister.
Associates of Amir Peretz said on Thursday that the defense minister would be willing to accept the position of finance minister immediately, after Attorney General Menachem Mazuz ruled earlier that Prime Minister Ehud Olmert could not fill the post indefinitely.
Put someone who actually knows about, gee, warfare, in the position.
To quote Oliver Cromwell when he dissolved the Rump Parliament
“You have sat too long for any good you have been doing lately… Depart, I say; and let us have done with you. In the name of God, go!”
In the name of God go, Amir Peretz, Tzipi Livni and the ultimate shmuck Ehud Olmert.
I guess to a union leader, the cabinet is just an elite jobs program, as opposed to, you know, being responsible for the lives of several million people.
Peretz might be even worse in the Finance Ministry, what with him being an unreconstructed old socialist union goon.
There are five million Jews in Israel. Can’t the country find three or four competent ones for these posts?
