Democratic Party chairman Yair Golan issued a statement to the media, against the backdrop of the failure of the Knesset dissolution bill that was raised last night amid the conscription crisis. "This is the last draft-dodging government. Those days are over," he said. "We will not join a government that does not ensure absolute equality in conscription - one law for everyone." According to Golan, "There is no ideology or concern for security here, just cynicism - selfish survival and cruel politicking on the backs of exhausted soldiers and bereaved parents." In response to a question from ynet about a potential strike on Iran, he said: "I don't trust Netanyahu one bit. He has proven that he has no problem sacrificing security for his own seat. I trust the IDF and the defense establishment."
