MK Moshe Gafni, chairman of the Finance Committee, was interviewed today (Friday) by Yated Ne’eman and commented on the forthcoming elections and the issue of forming a government. “We know Netanyahu’s conduct, we know Bennett’s conduct and Saar’s. Tell you someone. “What is the ideal for us? No. We in the teaching of the Torah scholars always go on an independent list separately from these groups, and then make the calculation of what is realistic for us,” Gafni said. “We will not go with someone who will not give us what is important to us“.

He also referred to the saga of the recruitment law and issued a clear ultimatum to anyone wishing to enter into a partnership with his party: “Our condition for joining the next coalition will be that we will not vote on any law until the important laws for Torah learners And above all the recruitment law“.
Gafni also criticized the right-wing party for not entering the government at the cliff of times: “Assuming the report was correct and there was indeed a right-wing proposal to join the government, it was really irresponsible to refuse.
However, he made it clear in an interview that at the moment, Netanyahu is the ideal candidate for them. “First and foremost, the great men of Israel Shlana and Rabbanan are the ones who decide his past and we will present them with all the data and facts and we will act as we are told. But right now, it’s less relevant. “Right now there are no alternatives, and right now, we are going with Netanyahu.”
As you may recall, on Tuesday, the 23rd Knesset froze after failing to pass the state budget law for 2021 as required. Meanwhile, Israel is heading for a fourth election in two years.
