In the second: the plenum convenes to disperse • Fear in the coalition: "Orbach will delay the procedure" • Netanyahu in an effort until the last minute to prevent elections: "Ready for concessions in the field of justice" • Assault:


The coalition hopes to pass the Knesset dissolution law on third reading as soon as possible, hoping that they will succeed by tonight (Monday), so that Lapid can enter the prime minister's office - but it is not inconceivable that they will run into difficulties.

The Knesset plenum will convene today in an attempt to advance the dispersal process.

The coalition sought to advance the plenary sessions to 13:00 to advance the dissolution of the Knesset, but in the meantime it is having difficulties with Knesset committee chairman Nir Orbach, who does not broadcast that he is willing to act at the pace they want and wants to delay the dissolution of the Knesset. For the establishment of an alternative right-wing government.

Coalition sources told Israel Today: "There is no progress even with Orbach on promoting the dissolution of the Knesset. He seems to be fully influenced by the opposition."

Last week, the law dissolving the Knesset passed a preliminary reading, and now Auerbach must advance it in the Knesset committee for a first reading.

This morning, Auerbach is expected to convene the Knesset committee to advance the law on first reading.

Opposition leader Benjamin Netanyahu is determined to prevent an election and tries to turn every stone into it.

Minister Gideon Saar opposes all of the Likud's proposals and the chances seem slim, but Likud officials tell Israel Today that Netanyahu is willing to reach an understanding on the issue of some of the issues with Saar, but is not willing to allow him a veto on these issues.

Also, against the background of the fear that even if an alternative right-wing government is formed in the current Knesset, Netanyahu will dismantle it quickly and lead to elections - Netanyahu agrees to a mechanism in which he will relinquish the transitional prime minister in favor of someone other than Saar.

Saar said yesterday: "Why are we going to the elections? They say that a right-wing government can be formed. It is true, there is a majority for the right in the Knesset, but there is no majority for Bibi in the Knesset - nor will he in the next Knesset. We went to the elections .

The main scenarios

The atmosphere in the political system is pre-election, but everyone remembers "Lil Mofaz", in which Shaul Mofaz signed a coalition agreement with Netanyahu - while the Knesset committee promoted the Knesset dissolution law to a vote.

Against the background of this concern, and in light of the fact that the coalition claims that Auerbach is cooperating with the opposition, there are several key scenarios that are being prepared for:

Dispersal Until tomorrow

, the opposition and the coalition will reach an agreement on the package of laws in the negotiations.

It will then agree to convene the committee to prepare it for a second and third reading, and the Knesset will disperse by tomorrow morning.

Withdrawal

of coalition time will try to bypass Orbach and promote the law dissolving the Knesset through the Constitution Committee headed by Gilad Karib of the Labor Party.

If the coalition bypasses Orbach, the opposition will use all the parliamentary tools at its disposal - including a filibuster in the Constitution Committee and the plenum and the submission of thousands of reservations - to delay the debate.

In addition, the Knesset committee headed by Auerbach can prevent the coalition from activating Article 98, which will shorten the order of the debate, so that the opposition can spend hours debating the dissolution of the Knesset so that it will only pass finally over the weekend.

Alternative government

The scenario that Lapid is very afraid of is that Netanyahu will delay the dissolution of the Knesset and will finally succeed in forming an alternative government in the current Knesset, similar to what was the case on "Lil Mofaz," but the chances are slim.

In order to put pressure on the Likud to reach agreements regarding the dissolution of the Knesset, the coalition is promoting the law of a criminal accused who cannot form a government.

The Constitution Committee discussed the law last night, but did not vote on it.

The Ministerial Committee on Legislation has approved the law, and it can now be put to a preliminary reading vote.

However, it seems that the law will not really be promoted due to legal difficulty in promoting such a law just before elections.

Were we wrong?

Fixed!
