In an interview with Arutz Sheva Radio, Attorney Eliad Shraga, chairman of the Movement for Quality Government, said that he doesn`t expect Prime Minister Olmert to accept responsibility for wartime failures, regardless of the Winograd report.
"The prime minister never learned in school about the concept of responsibility an personal example, so I don`t expect that precisely now he will do the necessary thing and vacate his position," Shraga said. Noting that, although the Winograd Committee will not have the power to remove any leader deemed responsible for failures in the Second Lebanon War, " At the end of the day, since the committee started working until now... the entire chain of command that was involved in running the war has left military service... And the single, solitary individual who remains is the prime minister. The interim report provided the proof that the man needs to go."
Attorney Shraga added his hope that Defense Minister Barak carries out his promise to the nation and resigns from the government. "The state of Israel never absorbed 400 rockets on its homefront," Shraga said. "People need to pay the price and it is unacceptable that the price is limited to the 200 families who lost their loved ones... A man with a lower approval rating than the percentage on a cottage cheese container cannot continue to run the country, he must go home."
