Kadima
im Ehud Ulmert LeRashut HaMemshala (Forward with Ehud Ulmert
for Prime-minister) is the list of Kadima Party and it was
assigned with the letters Kaf-suffixNun (Making it Ken
= Yes).
Kadima was founded on November 2005 by former PM Ariel Sharon
after he became tired of the "rebels" (the right
markers of HaLikud), that
opposed his plans.
He was followed by many of HaLikud senior members and also joined
by senior members from the Labor Party,
led by former PM Shim'on Peres that were disappointed from the
election of Amir Peretz as its leader. It was also joined by the
single Knesset member of Noy - Hamiflafa LeNeemanut Hevratit
A stroke put Sharon into Coma on 4 January 2006, and he was
substituted by Ehud Ulmart.
The party agenda put it between HaLikud and HaAvoda as a center
wing party. Web site at <www.kadima.org.il>.
Party logo is the slogan Kadima Yisrael (Forward Israel)
in white on dark blue with red line above Kadima. The
flag is dark blue with white inscription Kadima and same
red line above and a thin light blue borders on three sides.
As expected, Kadima win the elections with 29 seats and Ulmart
became the 12th PM of Israel.
