Gideon Sa'ar announces his retirement from the government/Niv Aharonson
Against the background of Gideon Sa'ar's departure from the government, and ahead of a meeting that is expected to be held today (Tuesday) in which the conscription law will be brought up for discussion in the government, this morning the "Alternative Builders" activity came to the home of Minister Gadi Eisenkot from the state camp and demanded that he leave the government.
According to the activity, shuffling in the negotiations on the abductees deal by the government and the turmoil surrounding the conscription law are the proof that the time of this government is over, and that the members of the state camp do not have the moral justification to stay in it. Moran Zer Katzenstein, founder of Bonot Alternative: "There is no time for kidnappings and our abductees, The army that needs tens of thousands more soldiers does not have time, and the citizens of Israel deserve the right to re-elect their representatives.
Gedi and my son, your order 8 is over.
Get out."

Later today, as mentioned, it is expected that the final version of the outline of the conscription exemption for the ultra-Orthodox will be brought up for discussion in the government.
Yesterday it was announced that as part of the consultations on the law - in the coalition they tend to give up raising the exemption age from 26 to 35. The government will present in its decision a timetable for the legislation of the conscription law, according to which, the memorandum of the law will be published to the public no later than April 21, and will be submitted for government approval by May 19 and within a month from then, until June 29, will be approved in three readings in the Knesset.
The decision that the government is expected to approve this week includes principles that will be an introduction to the legislation but not the details of the law itself.

The demonstration comes, as mentioned, against the background of the resignation from the government of the chairman of the state right, Minister Gideon Sa'ar, this after the ultimatum he presented to the members of the government about two weeks ago - according to which he would either be appointed as a member of the war cabinet or he would retire from the government - was not accepted.
"I cannot bear responsibility as long as there is no I have, according to my judgment, a practical possibility to influence the direction of the policy.
I just don't see any use in it anymore.
We did not come to the government to warm chairs.
We came to the government - which we opposed - to help the people of Israel in a difficult time.
In such circumstances, when the suffering of the people is so heavy and the end of almost six months of fighting, it is better to make a clear and clear voice outside the government and even challenge it in the public discourse on the subject of the war.
" On a letter of resignation to the Prime Minister, as required by Section 22 of the Basic Law: The Government.
Minister Yifat Shasha Biton did the same as me."
