The Degel Hatorah faction announced this evening (Sunday) to Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu that the party will no longer promote the passage of the conscription law before the Knesset elections.
This was after Degel's lawyers received instructions from Rabbi Lando to stop promoting the law.
However, a source at the Landau House explained: "If Netanyahu achieves a majority and the law comes up for a vote - we will support it!""
The meaning of the move is that if Netanyahu does not achieve a majority, the legislation will be shelved - and the Knesset Dissolution Law, which was approved last Wednesday in a preliminary reading, will go into high gear and is expected to pass in three readings in the Knesset plenum.
Commentator Amit Segal estimated that the elections will most likely be held on September 15 - two days after Rosh Hashanah.
About two weeks ago, the head of the yeshiva ordered the Degel Hatorah Knesset members to act to dissolve the Knesset as soon as possible, and declared that "there is no longer any trust in Netanyahu.".
