Quote of the Day

today si difficult. we have three statements competing for QotD honors...2 from litzman and 1 from Rivlin. I guess I'll put all 3 here (in no particular order) and let you all decide

1.

Lapid is a contagious disease that infected Gantz and is infected with antisemitism
 
  -- Deputy Minister Yaakov Litzman

this has caused a bit of a ruckus today

2.

We did not attack Gantz personally until today despite the fact that we were upset that he connected with Lapid, but suddenly he has changed over and is talking about a government with no Haredim. This is not leadership but is zigzagging, and we were right for only going with Bibi

  -- Deputy Minister Yaakov Litzman

this was really a continuation of the first statement above, but I separated them into two items as they are each different issues

So, all along UTJ says they wont sit with Gantz (because of Lapid, but even without Lapid they won't recommend Gantz and will only sit with him in a Netanyahu government). Gantz tries to pander to them and draw them in. It does not work, so eventually Gantz just stops. Litzman seems to think Gantz has to keep saying he wants the Haredim in. It is wrong for Gantz to suddenly say that he will form a government based on the secular majority, despite UTJ saying all along that they wont sit with him...

3.

Was I disappointed [that Netanyahu did not return the mandate]? I was surprised.

  -- President Reuven Rivlin

  1. Litzman's message is that Bibi would never form a Government without the Haredim. I guess he slept through the 18th Knesset 2009 - 2013.
