Israeli Prime Minister Ariel Sharon Suffers Massive Stroke

News:
Israeli Prime Minister Ariel Sharon emerged from brain surgery Thursday morning after suffering a massive stroke. This is the second stroke Sharon has had in the same month. A team of neurosurgeons had managed to stabilize the prime minister and stop the bleeding in his brain during an operation that lasted more than eight hours. Dr. Shlomo Mor-Yosef, the director of Hadassah-Ein Kerem hospital said Sharon's condition is very grave. The severity of Sharon's illness will prolonge his absence from Israel's political stage just months before national elections.
