HALLELUJAH! AT long last I have found a point on which I agree with Binyamin Netanyahu. Really!

This Monday the Knesset reassembled for its winter session after a long (and blessed) vacation.
On such occasions, the president of the state and the prime minister are invited to speak. The speeches are supposed to be festive, full of pious platitudes. In one ear and out the other.
Not this time.
Seated next to the Speaker, the President of Israel, Reuven Rivlin, made a speech that was unprecedented in every respect. He attacked the Likud-dominated government coalition and accused it of undermining the rule of law, the Attorney General and the police.
The President is no leftist, by any means. He belongs to the nationalist right. His ideology is that of “the whole of Eretz-Israel”. He is a member of the Likud party.
