Sharon Asks Israeli President for Early Election
Prime Minister Ariel Sharon asked Israel's president on Monday, November 21, 2005, ýto dissolve parliament and call an early election he hopes to win as head of a centrist
party that would follow his lead in Middle East peace moves. Sharon's dramatic ýgamble, after his own right-wing Likud party rebelled against him over a Gaza ýpullout he championed and completed in September, seemed likely to reshape Israeli
politics for years to come.ý
