Live broadcast from the plenum

Prime Minister Naftali Bennett said today (Monday) that unlike the Netanyahu government, his government "does not take the panicist approach. We do not think the corona is the end of humanity as the one who said it said."

Opposition MKs slammed him: "People are dying, are you crazy?" the police.

"Our policy is really different from what it was in the previous government," he said.

"The economy is open and fighting the plague. We are the first warehouses in the world in booster, in the second booster, in medicine. On the other hand, people go to work. Life goes on. Children get up in the morning for school, I know, I send my children. We do not take the panicist approach, and we do not think That the corona is the end of humanity as the one who said. The easiest thing is to press the shutdown button, no one will come in with complaints. What is more comfortable than sitting at home in the hospital for a year?

I pledged to keep the economy open.

Does it hurt that we did not crash the economy again?

We will not impose the closures you imposed. "

Ofir Akunis shouted at Bennett that he had served as a minister in the Netanyahu government (which was responsible for the closure, 11), and Bennett replied:" The difference between me and you is that I ran a business. "

The discussion was initiated by MK Yaakov Asher (Torah Judaism) under the title "The lack of leadership and loss of control of the prime minister in the face of the corona plague that endangers the lives of Israeli citizens and threatens the stability of the economy.

" , For example during an epidemic.

You are proud that in your time there were no closures, restrictions and saving the economy - but if Netanyahu had run the plague as you run it today - there would have been 20,000 dead, God forbid.

This is a terrible and horrible absurdity.

Instead of managing the epidemic, you have removed all responsibility from yourself and placed it on the public.

To cover up your failure, you wave the slogan 'live next to the corona'.

The time has come for you to know - a leader does what is right, not what is nice. "

Meanwhile, Minister of Internal Security Amar Bar-Lev announced earlier at a meeting of the Labor faction that he was considering changing his decision, and establishing a state commission of inquiry headed by a judge to examine the police, rather than government, follow-up case.

This, after criticism and after many ministers called for doing so.

"Let it be clear," Bar-Lev said, "the committee, government or state, will investigate not only what has been published, but also what has not yet been published. "At the very beginning and at the end, we will reach the investigation of the truth. We will eradicate corruption and preserve democracy. This is a commitment."

.

Opposition leader Netanyahu did not comment on the issue of the follow-up meeting at the Likud faction, which convened for the first time in weeks, and attacked the government's handling of the corona crisis. "We are in the midst of many upheavals, and of course the terrible spread of the corona plague," Netanyahu said. "I remind you that we ended the previous government term with zero deaths, zero seriously ill and somewhat verified. After a little over half a year, the situation is that we are with the highest mortality rate per capita of any country. It did not happen by itself, but by the government doing nothing. "6,000 died when there were no vaccines. And what did Naftali Bennett say then? 'Our people are dead.' And now, in less than a third of this time, we have close to 3,000 dead, with the government doing nothing and nothing."

"There is one person who is acceptable to all sections of the people, President Yitzhak Herzog," he said. "I call on all members of the Knesset. The opposition, and together they will appoint the committee that will investigate the issue. "

Justice Minister Gideon Saar said that for the reasons created he supports the establishment of a state commission of inquiry.

"This morning's publication, if it is true, is very serious and disturbing. The government authorities in Israel must respectfully protect human rights and the rights of Israeli citizens. The authorities have a duty to act and enforce the law within the law. I said at the cabinet meeting that Consultation with the Prime Minister, the Minister of Internal Security and the spokesman for the new "Shit" and decisions will be made

. Pegasus and the Israel Police: If the police disband, only the criminals will be happy.

As we sit here, thousands of police officers across the country are protecting our lives, our property and Israel's security.

We do not have any more police and we need to keep them. "

"At the same time, law enforcers should be the people who adhere to the law most of all. No one is immune from scrutiny and investigation. This is a serious affair that overshadows Israeli democracy. A decision must be made this week to establish a commission of inquiry. "This is the right step to take, and we must not delay even one more moment."

"We are in the midst of many upheavals."

The foreign minister continued: "I want to emphasize one more thing in front of all the spins: the first interrogated by the inquiry committee should be Amir Ohana. There is such a thing as ministerial responsibility. It happened in their shift. They need to give answers to the public."

MK Amir Ohana, who served as Minister of Internal Security, sharply attacked Lapid's remarks:

Do not believe?

Let's both go to the polygraph: I'm on NSO, and you on the conversations with Noni that you blacked out in the diary so they would not be discovered. "MK Ohana served as Minister of Internal Security for a short period and for most of the period in question
