After debating this question with myself I decided to choose Yoni Netanyahu because of his interesting character, and through him, I hope to portray one amongst so many soldiers who came before him, who died before their time.
I also think that the example of Yoni mirrors the two types of wars that Israel has had to fight throughout its years: that of frightful armies, and those of ruthless terrorists.

 The Head Heeb: What a farce
After the vote Mr Sharon repeated that there would be no Jews left in Gaza by the end of next year.
Gerald Steinberg, a political analyst at Bar-Ilan University, said Mr Sharon's opponents in his Likud party and cabinet, led by Binyamin Netanyahu, had won a tactical victory by insisting that there must be a second vote before any settlers were moved.
Had he pushed for a Gaza withdrawal around the time that he was meeting with Bush and Abu Mazen in Aqaba last year, things might have improved quite a bit by now, as he was certainly in a politically stronger position to get it done.

From Tulkarem to Gaza / Netanyahu or Sharon - who is the greater evil / When Arabs are killed, no investigation / demonstration: 'Gaza first, not last'  / Yesh Gvul crossing the border / Refusnik update / Soldiers breaking the silence / Musical protest
In the existing world, however, too many doves are still glorifying Sharon - as if they can't see that he again and again spoke the truth at home (withdrawing from Gaza in order to strengthen Israeli hold over the West Bank), and that what he said in New York were no more than noncommittal generalities.
But, maybe there is some paradoxical justice: the silliness of the pro-Sharon doves is rivaled by the blindness of the ultra right - which fails to  understand that their interests are safer in the hands of the now generally-admired Sharon than in those of Netanyahu.
