Israels rival political parties slammed the results of the Likuds primary elections on Tuesday, calling the party a hostage to the influences of extreme right-wing politicians within the party. While former Kadima chairman, Prime Minister Ehud Olmert said that the Likuds most prominent figures are extremists who will harm the State of Israel, Labor Chairman Ehud Barak echoed the Prime Ministers words yet declared that Labor, not Kadima is the answer to the right-wing extremism embodied by Likud. 12/09/08
