    Yes, Sharon was found "personally" and "directly" responsible for only turning a blind eye to the massacre of civilians at Sabra and Shatilla. A distinction without a difference. I mean, Gosh! who would have thought that lighting the way for and letting a bunch of murders and rapists into a concentration camp would lead to a massacre! Of course, the second part of the Kahan Commision Reprt was labelled Top Secret and never made public. We can only presume it was full of praise for Sharon and the IDF.
