Herzog: Government facing numerous ‘real challenges’
Zionist Union chairman Isaac Herzog says the government is facing “real challenges,” including the “stability of democracy,” the matter of the evacuation of the illegal Amona outpost, and the two-year budget.
He says the “hatred that led to [the assassination of former prime minister Yitzhak] Rabin has a new face,” which he describes as hatred of a political position, rather than toward an individual.
Herzog urges all Israelis to attend the Rabin memorial in Tel Aviv on Saturday night.
He says that will attend the the memorial in Rabin Square alongside Livni. “I call on all Israeli citizens, on all the MKs, on all party members” to attend, he says.
