I agree with Arachnophilia's view that there is no difference. For example Nelson Mandela and Menachem Begin were both terrorists who went on to be leaders of their nation.
It's too early to think about his legacy IMO - much will depend on what, if any, progress there is towards peace and a Palestinian state.
My own view is that neither peace or a Palestinian state is possible while Ariel Sharon (and people like him) wield power in Israel.

Confused ? You will be...
