Two veteran journalists, based on talks with persons very close to the Prime Minister, say that the Disengagement Plan was hatched up simply to avoid Sharon's indictment in the Greek Island scandal.
Journalists Raviv Drucker of Channel Ten TV and Ofer Shelach of Yediot Acharonot newspaper appeared on Nissim Mishal's Channel Two television program, and summarized the results of their research. The main findings:
The evacuation plan was born because Sharon was sure that then-State Prosecutor Edna Arbel would indict him.
The decisions on the disengagement plan were made by marginalizing the army people, and without the participation of the ministers and the Cabinet.
Sharon proposed to one of the army's top generals that he be a "plant" and report to him on the goings-on in the General Staff.
