A day after Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu received the mandate to form a government from President Reuven Rivlin, Danny Danon, chairman of the World Likud, this morning (Wednesday) attacked the president's conduct at the inauguration of the Knesset.
Bardugo on the morning - Guests: Danny Danon and MK Gilad Karib
In a conversation that took place in "Bardugo on the Morning," the podcast of "Israel Today," Danon, who also previously served as Israel's ambassador to the UN, said that "the feeling yesterday was not easy.
The inauguration of the Knesset is a festive and exciting event, but Rivlin's behavior in the Mishkan was incorrect.
As he seeks to honor the institution of the presidency, we ask him to honor the ceremony and the custom.
It was right for him to get into traditional photography, and it is a pity that this did not happen. "
Danon also referred to the chairman of the right, MK Naftali Bennett, saying that he should decide soon which side he is on: "He will not dance in Lapid's courtyard in the morning and will come to Netanyahu's court in the evening. This will not lead him to the prime minister's office. There are no shortcuts. It's an illusion - they will use it and throw it away. "
Another interviewee who participated in the program is Rabbi Gilad Karib from Labor, who became a new Knesset member yesterday.
He, compared to Danon, said that he did feel that yesterday was a presidential day and that he was not bothered by Rivlin's actions: "He respected Israeli democracy and us as Knesset members. There is a more important practice than traditional photography - the Speaker of the Knesset .
"In my opinion, the president did not deviate in any way from the mandate given to him by the Knesset as a legislature," said Karib, who is the first reform rabbi in the Knesset of Israel, which led to MK Israel Eichler (Torah Judaism) saying he would not say hello when he met in the Knesset corridors. "Seculars are not impressive because they are like captured babies and should be loved and brought closer, but Reformers are forgeries of Judaism - it's like Christians."
