Quote of the Day

I heard the claim that this law is personal - that is correct. It is personal against Naftali Bennett, who is the presiding Prime Minister, and it is personal against me, as the law establishes that I will be the next Prime Minister.We are legislating it because it is not healthy for the Israeli democracy to have a person ruling it for more than 8 years. We see and hear these days in the courts how extended rule leads to corruption. We are putting this to an end.I have heard the claim that this law does not exist in any parliamentary democracy. Well, in no other parliamentary democracy has a Prime Minister ruled despite having three serious indictments served for crimes committed while in office.
  -- Foreign Minister Yair Lapid
I dont think most people are worried that without this law Lapid or Bennett might remain in office for more than 8 years...
