Israeli media are reporting that the condition of comatose former Prime Minister Ariel Sharon has taken a turn for the worse.
Channel 10 TV said Sharon’s medical condition deteriorated Wednesday. It said Sharon was suffering from kidney problems.
Repeated calls to officials at Tel Hashomer hospital in central Israel were not answered, and Sharon’s son, Omri, refused to comment.
In September, Sharon underwent surgery to insert a new feeding tube.
Sharon was at the height of his political power in early 2006 when a devastating stroke incapacitated him. The 85-year-old has been in a coma since then, connected to a respirator. His family has said that he sometimes opens his eyes and moves his fingers.

Tell Bibi he should watch don’t forget what happened to Rabin and Sharon
And now they’re trying to give away more land. What idiots.
Who cares? “Yitamu chataim min ha’aretz”
See perush of the nesivos which Brisker Rov was oft to quote- that it refers to reshaim who are mushrash be’chait.
What does the Brisker Rov say about Bruria’s interpretation of the verse?
Refuah Shelamo.
Sharon is no better or worse than Netanyahu and any other recent Prime Minister.
glatta_cup, was Sharon born religious? How about his father? How about his grandfather? do you even know if they were religious? regardless, you call the man a Rasha, please pray tell, whose definition of rasha are you referring to? I don’t agree with the gayrush. But to call him a rasha- but you won’t get it. because you are busy quotng the Brisker Rav, who by the way, was nifter more than a half-century ago.
