Saar Hachutzpanim
Prime Minister Netanyahu announced that he will appoint Foreign Minister Gideon Saar to the additional position of Minister of the Interior (until a new government is formed).
The position of Minister of the Interior has sat vacant for aover a year, ever since the Haredi parties "left the coalition" - I put that into square quotes because they officially left the coalition and left their appointments but they continued to mostly support the coalition (except in votes that did not threaten the coalition from collapsing) from the outside and also ensured their portfolios and positions were either to be left vacant and ready for them to return or that only "friends" would take over their portfolios.

| your new Saar Hachutzpanim |
While it is unclear why suddenly this position needed an appointment during a caretaker government after sitting vacant for so long, the benefit of doing it now is that such appointments during a caretaker government do not require Knesset approval, making it much easier to finalize than it would have at any other time.
So Gideon Saar is now both the Minister of Foreign Affairs and Minister of Internal Affairs, so essentially he is in charge of everyone and everything!
In Hebrew he will hold the titles of שר החוץ and שר הפנים (Sar Hachutz and Sar Hapnim, or I might say the Saar Hachutz and Saar Hapnim). When put together that makes him the שר החוצפנים - the Minister of Chutzpanim. or maybe even the Saar Hachutzpanim.
A divine message or just a funny coincidence?
