Embarrassment at Knesset: Likud ministers vote with Left
None
The bill proposed by Knesset Member Yaakov Katz (National Union) to place the Jewish communities of Judea and Samaria under Israeli sovereignty was canceled on Wednesday. Three of Katz's party members supported the bill but 44 MKs objected to it, including Likud ministers and Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.
MK Arieh Eldad later told Netanyahu: "Bibi you voted like Tibi." It turns out that the government dropped the bill due to fear of international pressure. (Roni Sofer)
