Annan aide: Ariel Sharon is "like an assassin."

Israel's UN ambassador Dan Gillerman Wednesday urged that Secretary-General Annan fire his top adviser, Lakhdar Brahimi, for his anti-Israel tirades. "We've had enough," Gillerman said.

Speaking on Belgian radio and to the Belgian senate last week, Brahimi, an Algerian national, compared Sharon to an assassin, urged Europeans to increase their pressure on Israel, and said that the world is too accepting of "cynical and ridiculous" Israeli positions on peace with the Palestinian Arabs, according to a report by Agence France-Presse.
