Labor Party members may rebel against Amir Peretz for not getting good coalition deals
The current coalition agreement Ehud Olmert made with Labor does not provide deputy ministers, if anything (and because of this, United Torah Judaism may not want to join), and because of this, Amir Peretz now has problems arising:
(IsraelNN.com) Labor Knesset member Matan Vilnai Saturday labeled party chairman Amir Peretz a "megalomaniac," and several party MKs may be planning to bolt the party, according to media reports.I don't know how that'll turn out so far, but I do know that Peretz is certainly facing some trouble.
An open rebellion may depend on Sunday's party central committee meeting on whether to let Peretz choose the ministers or to let the committee choose them. Among those who favor giving the power to the committee is Ophir Paz, who said Saturday night he accepted Peretz's offer to be Minister of Culture and Sport with responsibility for Jerusalem affairs.
how tragic that in the holiest Land on Earth..there is so much divisiveness...prayer seems in order!
