About
flag this descriptionAriel Sharon (help·info) (Hebrew: אריאל שרון, also known by his diminutive Arik, אַריק) (born Ariel Scheinermann (אריאל שיינרמן) on 27 February 1928) is an Israeli general and politician, who served as Israel’s 11th Prime Minister. He is currently in a permanent vegetative state after suffering a stroke on 4 January 2006.
A commander in the Israeli Army since its inception in 1948, Sharon participated in the 1948 War of Independence, 1956 Suez War, Six-Day War of 1967, and the Yom-Kippur War of 1973. After retiring from the army, Sharon joined the right-wing Likud party, and served in a number of ministerial posts in Likud-led governments in 1977-1992 and 1996-1999. He became the leader of the Likud in 2000, and served as Israel’s Prime Minister from 2001 to 2006.
During his long military and political career, Sharon was considered a controversial and polarizing figure. In 1983 a commission established by the Israeli Government found that Sharon as Minister of Defense during 1982 Lebanon War bore personal but indirect responsibility for the massacre by Lebanese militias of Palestinian civilians in the refugee camps of Sabra and Shatila.

Everyone who didn't know this place was here would say, ‘I'll be back,'
What this does is ... for some of these places, it is a chance to show off what they got and maybe attract people who have never been to each of their places so far
Half are young, half are old ... A lot come in just to see what we have on the walls.
The whole idea of the pub crawl itself is not to get a bunch of people drunk and run around town. It is to raise money for the handicapped children, and make people aware of them
