Ya'alon: Barak like snakes in Kirya base
None
Minister for Strategic Affairs and Vice Premier Moshe Ya'alon launched an unprecedented attack on Defense Minister Ehud Barak this week, on the backdrop of the high tensions in the Israel Defense Forces top brass following the heated race for the position of IDF chief of staff and Barak's attempt to shift the responsibility for the deadly raid on a Gaza-bound flotilla on the army.
Speaking at a closed forum in a private home in the central city of Ness Ziona, Ya'alon said that "the events of the past week emphasize what I have been saying about the snakes in the Kirya base (the IDF and defense minister's headquarters)." (Attila Somfalvi)
