Olmert's Comments on Further West Bank Withdrawal Enrage Sharon
(Jerusalem Post) Gil Hoffman and Matthew Gutman- Prime Minister Sharon reacted with fury on Thursday at Industry, Trade, and Labor Minister Ehud Olmert's statements about Israel withdrawing from more than the four West Bank settlements in Sharon's unilateral disengagement plan. "Where did he get this nonsense?" Sharon said. "There is no plan other than the disengagement plan. What Olmert said is against my position and we have no intention of getting into such ideas." Olmert reportedly said, "The four settlements the government intends to evacuate in northern Samaria within the framework of the disengagement plan will not be the only ones....If we find ourselves in a long-standing process, we will evacuate many settlements."
