Ariel Sharon suffers second stroke in 3 weeks

Power has been transferred from Prime Minister Ariel Sharon to Deputy Prime Minister Ehud Olmert after Sharon suffered a "significant stroke" Wednesday and was under anesthesia and on a respirator, officials said.

Unhappy

Pat Robertson says God is punishing Sharon for splitting up the Holly Land.

What an idiot!

I heard him saying that on the radio and just about spit out my Diet Pepsi. Didn't God create the whole world/universe, not just Israel? Didn't we break the whole world up into numerous countries? That guy is getting flakier and flakier the older he gets.

Don't thousands of people have strokes each year? Don't we all die someday? Does that mean we're all being punished?

He's as scary as al qaeada in his beliefs.

The president of Iran wished him death also. Wonderful thoughts really.

The rest of the world is praying for him.

I was listening to Michael Savage last night, and his take was that considering how out of shape (obese) Sharon is, it is more likely that God has intervened to keep him alive as long as he has so that he had time to do good on this earth.

Dont think We broke everyone up into Countrys.

Think God did that when they tried to build a tower to reach God. Think it was known as the Tower of Babal.

He destroyed it, changed skin colors and gave different Languages to the Peoples!

Of course, this is Creative Designing isnt it?

Pat Pooperson is still an Idiot who has as We Old Folks Say Has Gone Over The Bend!

Remember, Sharon is no spring chicken either. Plus what He has gone through in that little part of the world is an accomplishment unto it self.

Being over 70 and overweight would probably cause him to have a stroke. Just a thought Pat Robertson. Of course, Pat Robertson is too busy counting the money he made with his friend Charles Taylor.

To be religious you have to be willing to have faith and understand this isn't about logic. If it comes down to logic, then put away your bible and go home. So in that sense there isn't anything wrong with thinking things happen for a reason.

Pat Robertson also said he prayed together with Arik last year. He wishes him a good recovery.

And Arik suffered from a stroke but it was the fact that he returned to the job that caused his further health demise, not his weight. Combine that with the fact that he was taking blood thinners as a result, and the hemmorage that resulted was extremely difficult to correct.

Aside from Ben Gurion (the first Prime-Minster), Ariel is considered to have the largest mandate in Israeli history and his power should have extended well into 2010.
