Dramatic conversations are taking place in the halls of the Knesset and l’havdil in the homes of Gedolei Yisrael on Wednesday, after the opposition parties announced earlier in the day that they are advancing the bill to dissolve the Knesset, with the hope that the Chareidi parties will help them bring down the government. As YWN has reported, HaRav Landau and HaRav Hirsch have instructed the UTJ members to vote for the dissolution of the government due to the lack of a bill to regulate the status of lomdei Torah. The bill being advanced by Yuli Edelstein, the head of the Knesset’s Defense and Foreign Affairs Committee, calls for draconian financial sanctions against bnei yeshivos and was not approved by the Chareidi MKs.
