We keep tradition and believe in God. At least I do. But we are not careful with the easy as with the difficult (the lenient as with the stringent). Those who keep Shabbos did not participate in Netanyahu talks on Shabbos.
-- Minister Miri Regev, regarding the reports that Netanyahu had a tactical discussion with members of the Likud and the 55-bloc on Shabbos via telephone. This raised a bit of an outcry regarding the religious and Haredi parties lack of any response to Netanyahu's public desecration of Shabbos for politics. For their end, the Haredi parties responded sayign they know Netanyahu does not sit around on Shabbos reading Chumash and Rashi, but his telephone meetings yesterday were nothing unusual as he meets with Likud leaders via telephone every Shabbos - this time it was leaked out only because of politics.
