...felt the first article The Crimson ran was unfair in its representation of the club elections, but we respected the right of HRC members to critique our rules and of The Crimson to report those critiques.

After all, Sharon is Israel's most notorious hawk, and even though Israelis have little confidence in the peace process right now, it may be more difficult for Likud to rally a majority behind a man many Israelis fear will be more inclined to inflame Palestinian and Arab rage. But the only certainty in the outcome is that it will produce another unstable government. Bibi may just decide to bide his time...
