IT'S FINALS WEEK FOR OLMERT AND PERETZ: From the Jerusalem Post

In their first test since the Second Lebanon War, IDF generals and political leaders gathered in the underground war bunker at the Kirya military headquarters in Tel Aviv on Monday to drill their performance and interaction in a war game simulating an all-out regional war.

Tomorrows test will be a first:

On Tuesday, Prime Minister Ehud Olmert and Defense Minister Amir Peretz will play an active role in the exercise, marking the first time that the country's political leaders participate in the annual war game. In past years, political leaders have refrained from participating in the drill so as not to commit themselves to specific courses of action.

Let's hope Peretz brings his binoculars.
