Knesset speaker: We must never strive to crush opponents
None
Knesset Speaker Yuli Edelstein spoke at the Independence Day ceremony in Mount Herzl and called for national unity. "We must continue to argue but when we argue about equal share of the burden, or about the budget, we must never aim to crush the opponent," he said.
He further added, "We must strive for a society with differing opinions. A society where a haredi Jew can fully realize the way of life in which he believes while taking responsibility for the state's security and future as his secular brother does." (Noam Dvir)
