The appointment of Amir Peretz as chairman of IAI caused a stir today (Sunday) in the government hearing. As mentioned, Peretz's appointment was delayed after the committee examining appointments in government companies disqualified him from running for office. ".
During the hearing, Defense Minister Ganz, who led Peretz's election to the post, explained that the committee found Peretz suitable but disqualified him because of his political affiliation, which Ganz claims "does not exist."
"I would like to state that Amir Peretz has special skills," said the defense minister.
"I considered the committee's position, I think your decision is unreasonable. Peretz, who was defense minister, mayor and head of the Histadrut - can not serve as chairman of the board?"

At this point, the finance minister launched an offensive against the committee that rejected the appointment.
"This committee is a little confused, Mr. Spokesman," Lieberman said. "It's not black or white.
I expect the members of the Gilor Committee to draw conclusions and resign.
All conduct there is unreasonable, the judgment there is flawed and irresponsible.
Their job is to test compliance with the criteria and not to change policy. "
Deputy Attorney General Gil Limon responded to Lieberman's remarks, saying: "This is a sensitive issue. The message should be that the Gilour Committee is an important committee that preserves government companies. Strong political. The fact that he retired a year ago is not enough. Justice Minister Gideon Saar wondered: "Political affiliation with whom?
Gantz or Meirav Michaeli? "
