"The Worst Government Ever is Being Set Up"
By Yechiel Sever, G. Lazar and B. Rabinowitz
"Before our very eyes, one of the worst governments is being put
together, most evil in every area and by every measure. Its very basis
is founded upon hatred, persecution and hypocrisy , which will arouse
vehement opposition. We are expecting it and prepared for it with a
sense of mission, and will fight it with determination and purpose,"
said the MK representatives of Degel HaTorah, Rabbi Moshe Gafni, Rabbi
Uri Maklev and Rabbi Yaakov Asher.
Head of the Knesset Finance Committee Rabbi Gafni said this week, "One
of the most virulent governments in the history of the state is about
to be created, worst in every area and in every aspect. From the Torah
viewpoint — the attempts to strike at Torah students; from the
religious view — to strike at the religious status quo and from
the financial aspect, to promote the interests of the rich and hurt
the middle and weaker income levels. This government will encounter
very strong opposition, a very professional one which will protect the
rights of Torah scholars, of religious matters and also the rights of
citizens — lest they suffer at the hands of this wicked
government."
Rabbi Uri Maklev said, "This government is based exclusively on
hatred, religious persecution and hypocrisy. I hope and trust that
this government fails, that political bonds which are totally founded
upon hate will have no tenure. But until that time, we will have to
fight it with force, and struggle for our rights and lives upon many
fronts. We are prepared for it and committed to fight with
determination on every single point, with great concern, determination
and accountability. Torah Jewry is experienced with many such
situations of the past. We are embarking upon an untrodden path but
permeated with a sense of holy mission, and prepared to do what is
incumbent upon us with full responsibility."
