The former head of the Shin Bet called for talks "in the spirit of the president's outline." "We must stop the rift before it turns into a real rift, a rift that we don't know how it will heal," he added. Former minister Handel expressed his fear of a rift in the nation. "Our streets are



burning , not with fire and smoke but with feelings of enmity and fear," he said. "The legal reform, which in my view is absolutely required, is worth nothing if there is no State of Israel.
