''CPR': Auerbach and Lieberman agreed to cancel the 'dormitory plan' for 2023

April 7, 2022   

Victory to all my friends: Finance Minister Avigdor Lieberman and Yamina faction chairman MK Nir Orbach concluded a meeting this afternoon (Thursday) that was held "in a good spirit," as they described it, at the Finance Ministry. What a mess: I wonder where the Levy family gets the money for renovations at home? • Watch Minister Lieberman and MK Orbach concluded that "every effort must be made to stabilize the coalition." In this context, they agreed to cancel the 'dormitory outline' for 2023 and postpone it to 2024. "The parties in their meeting agreed that the gaps are not large and that action must be taken to integrate populations into the labor market while at the same time preserving the Torah study community," said a Yisrael Beiteinu statement. "The parties concluded that the dialogue between them will continue, together with the Minister of Economy, Orna Barbievi, in the near future." Shas Chairman Aryeh Deri responded: "Dear MK Idit Silman, I know how hard you worked all year to cancel the offensive dormitory decree. Know that only the noble act you did yesterday caused Lieberman to overcome his hatred of Torah study and cancel it. The graduates and their families appreciate your gratitude." MK Orit Struck responded: "Lieberman's goat came out to make room for Nir Orbach. It hurts that by the time they allowed her to be taken out, she had managed to trample on so many mothers, abuse so many babies, and shed so many tears. Congratulations, of course, to Idit Silman, who found courage. "It's a shame and also puzzling that Nir would prefer to keep the minister who abuses Torah scholars in the Ministry of Finance, and the minister who abuses settlers in the Ministry of Defense, instead of forming a right-wing government that is right within reach. It's still interesting what will happen with goat number 3, electricity for the young settlement. As you remember, Gantz is only willing to stop this abuse in exchange for advancing Abbas's takeover plan." Earlier this morning, Nir Orbach announced that he had set three ultimatums for Prime Minister Naftali Bennett. In the ultimatum that Orbach presented to Bennett, he demanded the cancellation of the dormitory plan, the convening of the MTA (Construction Planning Council in the Territories) and the connection of the young settlement to electricity. "Without a solution to these issues, I will not be able to remain in the coalition," Orbach clarified. The chairman of Religious Zionism, MK Bezalel Smotrich, referred to Orbach's ultimatum this afternoon - calling it a "bluff." "Everything is a coordinated game between Bennett and Orbach," Smotrich stated. According to him, "Bennett is giving him a ladder: 1. Regarding the dormitory, there is already an agreed-upon outline in principle with the Ministry of Finance. 2. Gantz will approve the MTA in order to preserve the government. 3. Electricity is generally a victory for Abu Mazen because the plan will connect more Arab outposts established as part of the Fayyad plan than Jewish settlements.".
