Liberman: Freezing Western Wall plan a ‘severe blow’ to Jewish unity
Defense Minister Avigdor Liberman says Netanyahu’s decision to freeze the government-approved plan to establish a pluralistic prayer pavilion at the Western Wall will harm relations between Israel and Diaspora Jews.
“Canceling the deal constitutes a severe blow to the unity of of the Jewish people and communities as well as the relationship between Israel and Diaspora Jewry,” he says in a statement.
He calls on colleagues to “return to sanity,” and work to “prevent the rift within the Jewish people.”
