Ariel Sharon was the 11th Prime Minister of Israel, serving from 2001 to 2006. He was a complex and controversial figure, known for his military prowess and his hardline policies. This article provides an intimate portrait of Sharon, exploring his life and career.
Early Life and Military Career
Ariel Sharon was born in British Mandate Palestine in 1928. He grew up on a farm and joined the Israeli army in 1948, fighting in the Arab-Israeli War. He quickly rose through the ranks, becoming a general in 1967. Sharon played a key role in the Six-Day War, leading the Israeli forces to victory over Egypt, Jordan, and Syria.
After the war, Sharon remained in the military, serving as Chief of Staff from 1969 to 1973. He led the Israeli army in the Yom Kippur War in 1973, and his victory helped to cement his reputation as a brilliant military commander.

He served in various ministerial positions, including Minister of Defense from 1981 to 1983 and from 1985 to 1990. Sharon was a key figure in the Likud party, and he was known for his hardline views on the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.
In 2001, Sharon was elected Prime Minister of Israel. He served until 2006, when he was forced to resign due to health problems. During his time as Prime Minister, Sharon implemented a number of controversial policies, including the construction of the West Bank separation barrier and the withdrawal of Israeli settlers from the Gaza Strip.
