Quote of the Day

..I am a member of the government and responsible for its actions.. but next time superfluous chilul shabbos is committed in the construction of the light rail or any other government project as happened on this past Shabbos, which is not qualified as pikuach nefesh, the Shas movement under my leadership will not allow it to pass lightly.

  -- Minister of Commerce Aryeh Maclouf Deri

Deri sent a threatening letter to the Minister of Transportation and Prime Minister after learnign that rubble from the demolition of the Maariv Bridge in Tel Aviv on Friday was removed on Shabbos.


It is all good, his entire letter, except funny how he makes it sound like this is the first time he has ever heard of chilul shabbos perpetrated by the government or its agents. He threatens "next time" as if this is the first time...
