Israeli prime minister Ariel Sharon has apparently suffered a significant stroke, just hours before he was scheduled to undergo a heart procedure. Early reports indicate he has bleeding around his brain, is on a respirator, and may have partial paralysis of the legs. Former Jerusalem mayor Ehud Olmert will be acting prime minister until Sharon is able to retake control of the government. More news as it becomes available.
