The front page of HaModi'a, the home newspaper of Torah Judaism chairman Yaakov Litzman, teaches the whole story this morning (Tuesday). A small article on the left side of the main page tells readers about the minister's return to the cabinet table. In Shas, the 30-word article describes balconies that Litzman returned to the Ministry of Construction and Housing.

Although he returned to the government, at home we have already marked the end of his journey.



Just two months ago, Litzman resigned in protest of the closure during the Tishrei holidays.

Since then, he has tried to return to the government as deputy minister under Shas' "straw minister", but was stopped by the Rebbe of Gur, his spiritual patron, who wondered what the government had changed in its attitude towards the ultra-Orthodox public in the fight against the corona.

Litzman, who passionately explained with his resignation why it is forbidden to be in such a government, found it difficult to explain his strong desire to return.

In the past week, he has tried to appoint a professional to the post of minister so that he can continue to control the ministry through his people - from the outside.



One of the hottest names was Yair Pines, director general of the Ministry of Construction and Housing in recent months. Litzman did not anticipate the magnitude of the opposition. A storm arose from home. His friends from the Agudat Israel faction he heads led a public battle against him. The party, whatever the professional may be.

Litzman, who has not counted his friends for a long time, was stopped again by the Rebbe. In this case, too, he was forced to follow in the footsteps of mourning and with his head covered. There was no closure on ultra-Orthodox cities and the government did not try to restrict prayers. This was the excuse, and in the absence of the possibility of appointing another ultra-Orthodox representative, the excuse was accepted. The day before his return, Litzman met with his spiritual leader Return.

Returning to the government: Litzman will be reappointed Minister of Construction and Housing

There is no chance of him being appointed.

Litzman's return to the post of minister in the government does not indicate his political strength.

Whoever was the "National Mammy" involuntarily makes his last steps in his political life, and these seem to be slow dying steps.

With a recommendation for an indictment, devoid of domestic support and hard opposition within the storks - a return to the cabinet table, of someone who has already left it at least twice just to return, mainly shows that Litzman clung to the foundations of the altar.



In the political corridors whose walls are soaked with cynicism they may very quickly forget this farce, but inside the house it is another event that has strengthened the decision-makers' understanding that the heir should already be marked, and beautiful one hour earlier.
