PM, Ya’alon held tense talks after controversial remarks by deputy IDF chief

Benjamin Netanyahu and Defense Minister Moshe Ya’alon held a “difficult” conversation overnight, before the publication of a clarification for a speech by Deputy IDF Chief of Staff Yair Golan comparing the way in which some in Israel relate to the “other” with language used in Europe prior to the Holocaust.

Channel 2 says that the conversation between the prime minister and defense minister signals a deterioration in the relationship between the two.
