Ayalon, a freshman Knesset member, has joined hands with respected economist Avishay Braverman, former president of Ben-Gurion University, to mount a formal challenge to the party’s embattled leader, Defense Minister Amir Peretz.
Ayalon still believes that such a solution is feasible, even though he agreed that Israel does not currently have a credible Palestinian interlocutor.
Ayalon noted that during his time at the helm of the Shin Bet between 1996 and 2000, periods of strong Palestinian support for the peace process were marked by a lower number of Hamas terrorist attempts and more willingness by Palestinian security forces to take action against terrorist groups.

 Agence Global - Article
Admiral Ami Ayalon -- small in stature but broad of vision -- is a former commander of the Israeli Navy (1992-1996), who was named head of Shin Beth (1996-2000), Israel’s internal security service, some months after the murder of Prime Minister Yitzhak Rabin by a Jewish fanatic.
At next February’s Labour Party primaries, Ami Ayalon intends to try to wrest the leadership of the party from Amir Peretz who, as Defence Minister in Ehud Olmert’s government, has been widely discredited for his calamitous conduct of the Lebanon war.
In other words, Ayalon hopes to rescue the Labour Party from the grip of the Right and bring it back to a moderate left-of-centre position, from which peace negotiations with the Arabs could be envisaged.

 14-01-2007 Editor's Notes: Riding the waves with Ami Ayalon - Centro Italiano per la Pace in Medio Oriente
Ayalon moved rapidly on to assault the tendency of Israel 's political leaders to marginalize their potential rivals - a case of misconceived self-interest taking precedence over the good of the country.
Impassioned and intense, it is easy to envision Ayalon having inspired and sustained subordinates during his years as the commander of the Navy and the head of the Shin Bet.
And a dove Ayalon plainly is, albeit one determined to communicate with his ideological adversaries, and one who does not encourage moderation at all costs, as he makes clear here with a moral evisceration of a policy of restraint that prevents the IDF from firing on Kassam gangs.

Dani Ayalon is a very different man. He has recently completed a four-year-term as ambassador in Washington, which, from Israel's point of view, is by far the most important diplomatic post in the world, because the alliance with Washington is Israel's lifeline.
In an interview on November 19 with the Israeli daily Ma'ariv, Dani Ayalon revealed himself to be an unconditional champion of the American alliance and a stern critic of those in the Israeli defence establishment who sold sensitive military equipment to China behind America's back, thereby incurring Washington's displeasure.

 Israel’s Labour Party (almost) Chooses a New Leader | TPMCafe
Ayalon has said that he is not opposed to being in a coalition with Kadima, but they would have to choose a new party leader other than Olmert.
Ayalon, by contrast, polled well, where the election was genuine and genuinely competitive and where Labour needs to grow its strength in the general elections, notably in the large cities (Ayalon won Tel Aviv, Jerusalem, and Haifa).
If Ayalon is to succeed not only in two weeks, but also in repositioning Labour to be a driving force in Israeli politics, then he will need to build on the courage and daring which we have seen fleeting glimpses of to date.
