Maybe Ariel Mistook her for Condoleeza...

"I have to confess, it was hard for me to concentrate in the conversation with Condoleezza Rice because she has very nice legs." - Ariel Sharon

When you state captions say things it doesn't--yes, you.

If this is the African group I remember, they do have a genetic marker found only among the Cohens - one of the original tribes, and one near the top of the original food chain.

Arguably, their attire is at least as "Jewish" as the more Western attire favored by Sharon.

How many times do you need to be told that it is PUBLISHED that Houston refused to shake Sharon's hand?

How many times on one thread do people have to prove to you that the caption is real before you start to believe it?

Did you bother to look at the OTHER pictures that accompanied that story? I did. The rest of them had NOTHING like that in them.

Whatever that caption is, it's wrong.

That's only in one picture. Where is the STORY that confirms that, not just a caption somebody at Yahoo put on it?

evets did not write the caption. He accurately posted what Yahoo! reported.

He reports. You decide.

I agree; if you look at all the pictures, they don't give ANY indication of anything bad happening at all.

JERUSALEM (AFP) - US pop diva Whitney Houston met with Israeli Prime Minster Ariel Sharon (news - web sites) at his Jerusalem residence on Tuesday evening while on a six-day visit to Israel at the invitation of a desert-dwelling black Hebrew sect, an AFP correspondent at the scene said.

Dressed in a distinctive vibrant red African costume, Houston, 40, told Sharon she was in Israel to "visit friends and family" among the polygamous black Hebrews, who have been living in Israel since 1969.


But, standing outside Sharon's residence, Houston did not shake hands with Israel's burly premier, leaving it to her husband the former singer Bobby Brown.


She was also due to meet with Israel's hawkish Tourism Minister Benny Elon later Tuesday in Jerusalem.


Houston and Brown arrived in Israel with their daughter on Sunday and went directly to the desert town of Dimona, which is home to the 2,000-strong sect and renowned for being the site of an Israeli nuclear plant.


The visit was aimed at sending a message that Israel was a safe place to travel in, elders of the community said on Sunday.


Houston was also said to be planning a recording about Israel with several members of the community, which is known for its choirs and singing groups, they added.


On Monday, she visited the southern coastal town of Eilat, and is due to tour Jerusalem on Wednesday, taking in both Jewish and Christian holy sites in the Old City. Later in the week, she is due to visit the Galilee and Jordan river areas, Israeli daily Haaretz reported.


Known as the Original African Hebrew Israelite Nation of Jerusalem, the black Hebrews believe they are descended from one of the lost ten tribes of Israel as mentioned in the Bible.


Strict dietary laws forbid the consumption of meat and polygamy is permitted


The group first came to Israel in 1969, and since then, members have earned a living through their celebrated professional gospel choir and rhythm and blues singing troupes.


Two members of the community even represented Israel at the Eurovision song contest in 1999.


They are also renowned for the brightly-colored clothing they make, and for the vegetarian food they produce at a factory in the area.

Yahoo must be wrong. It's obvious.

Where does it say she DISSED him? I think there may be another explanation, but, gawd forbid I ruin the fun.

Whitney 'disses' Sharon

It looks to me as though Sharon is simply motioning to the outfit that Whitney is wearing, as if he's either commenting on it or asking Whitney a question about it.

This woman is a drugged-out, alcohol addicted, skeletal shell of what she once was. And now she refuses to shake the hands of Prime Minister Sharon. What an embarassment.

I agree, but it won't stop those on the board who are always "itchin" for a fight.

Not only did I read the posted article, I went to Yahoo's site and looked up the article attached to the picture you posted...and the caption. Neither had anything about 'dissing.'
