(Jpost)."Shimon can't be stopped, I asked him to meet only with [US Middle East Envoy George] Mitchell, to rest a bit," Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu said at the beginning of Sunday's weekly cabinet meeting.
Netanyahu was speaking after President Shimon Peres was released from hospital earlier Sunday morning. Peres had been hospitalized after fainting momentarily while making a speech in Tel Aviv Saturday evening. "There is genuine concern on the part of every citizen in our country for our president,In the name of every minister in Israel, we wish him good health." Netanyahu and his wife had personally called Peres in the hospital to wish him well already on Saturday night.
He told the cabinet he was concerned after being informed of the incident. "I called and told him in my name, in my wife's name and in the name of the people of Israel that we all hope for him to feel well," Netanyahu said. He added, after talking to Peres again Sunday morning, that the president "feels great."
