MK Levin: Barak forgets that he once supported referendum
None
Knesset Member Yariv Levin (Likud), who led the referendum bill, criticized Defense Minister Ehud Barak's remarks on the referendum.
"It seems Minister Barak is not just politically blind but also forgetful, as he himself voted in favor of the law at the beginning of the (Knesset's) term. Barak's sudden change of mind, and the undignified way he escaped from yesterday's vote prove that the Knesset did the right thing by not leaving the fate of Jerusalem and the Golan Heights in the hands of people like Minister Barak – but left the decision to the entire public," Levin said.
