In fact it is pro-democratic. <br />In our parliamentary democracy, the most common way for a leader to lose his job is through a vote of no-confidence. Calling for his resignation is <br />a) telling him that you don't have confidence and he should resign without the vote and<br />b) telling the people you voted for that you don't have confidence in the leader and that they should support a no-confidence vote.rockofgalileehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07939653236475167491noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20257999.post-19013395144860555552007-01-17T16:21:00.000+02:002007-01-17T16:21:00.000+02:00hear hear! good point blukehear hear! good point blukeRafi G.https://www.blogger.com/profile/00699851287106903971noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20257999.post-72335524089337180392007-01-17T13:46:00.000+02:002007-01-17T13:46:00.000+02:00Chalutz had to go he lost the trust of the soldier...Chalutz had to go he lost the trust of the soldiers under him. It is clear from all the reports that the war was very poorly run and the reflects on Chalutz. He is an example of someone who was simply promoted to a job that he was not prepared for and did not have the experience to do. <br /><br />The resignation of Chalutz casts a very bad light on Sharon (and Mofaz) who appointed him. It is clear that he was appointed for 1 reason only, he would follow orders and execute the disengagement. As we look back it is becoming crystal clear that Sharon was one of the worst PM's ever and that just about every major decision that he made was a mistake.blukehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03774763780910614203noreply@blogger.com
