Re: Ariel Sharon dies.[W:22]
What Pete said. Sharon way over-stepped the agreed remit of the invasion without Begin's approval. This came out some years later. Sharon sued the journalists who made the allegation, and lost the case. Here's the story:
Sharon was the Minister of Defense. "His" plan was authorized by the government which was led by Menachem Begin. The Chief of the army was Rafael Eithan (Sharon was never Chief of the Army, he was a General).
