The violent onslaught on Congress in Washington, during which a police officer and four supporters of outgoing US President Donald Trump were killed, led Yisrael Beiteinu chairman Avigdor Lieberman to say in an interview last night on Channel 12’s “Meet the Press” that an event would not be long in coming. Such a magnitude is also in Israel at the initiative of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. Lieberman commented this morning (Sunday) on the program of Golan Yokfaz and Anat Davidov on 103FM and said that “Netanyahu wants to keep the government. Even if he loses the election, he does not intend to admit it. I have no doubt he will call on supporters to come out. “
In his opening remarks, Lieberman said that “it is clear that everything that happened in the Capitol is nothing compared to what will happen here. They want to steal power from him and Netanyahu wants to keep power. I know Netanyahu well, this is the scenario he is building and planning.”
He added that he was “trying to build a bloc of those four parties that signed a surplus agreement, and he will negotiate, I hope some more parties will join, must replace the government. I think that in parallel with the election campaign, the connection between Yemin, Gideon Saar, Yesh Atid and Yisrael Beiteinu should be tightened, I hope that the day after the election we will announce that this is the bloc that will conduct the negotiations together and recommend together. This is the only way to replace the government, and when I talk about it, it’s not just to replace Netanyahu, if Gafni continues to sit on the money tap as chairman of the Finance Committee we did nothing, if we do not replace them we did nothing. It is not just yes or no Netanyahu “.
On the skyrocketing morbidity rates in the ultra-Orthodox sector, the chairman of Yisrael Beiteinu said that “the morbidity in the ultra-Orthodox sector is five times, in the Arab sector there is three times the minimum and there is a minimum of enforcement, with most being on the beach in Tel Aviv. It should be understood that this week is critical. The question here is much more fundamental – who runs the country? When the prime minister bows to ultra-Orthodox activists, he decides for the government and decides for all of us. The prime minister calls ultra-Orthodox activists and really bows down, begging, ‘Cooperate, shut up. There must be uniform enforcement.
When we see him a police officer bowing his head in front of lawbreakers in Beitar Illit and asking them for a blessing, that’s all. When the prime minister bows, begs, in front of ultra-Orthodox activists – that is the spirit of the commander. All it conveys is that they should be pleasing, and who runs the state, government or rabbis? If fines were imposed on those educational institutions and denied them the allowances, without a single police officer everything would have gone smoothly. There is not a single fine that the ultra-Orthodox institutions have paid for tweeting about the guidelines. “
Lieberman then attacked the prime minister, saying that “with Netanyahu everything is enslaved to his personal political survival, he cynically exploits the corona, the vaccines, the Shin Bet and the demonstrations. We are all hostages of his political survival. ”
