Shas Chairman Deri Updates Members Of Moetzes Chachmei HaTorah On Draft Bill


Shas party chairman Minister Aryeh Deri has updated members of the party’s Moetzas Chachmei HaTorah on the draft proposal of a new military conscription bill prepared by Defense Minister Lieberman. Deri met with Chacham HaGaon HaRav Shlomo Cohen Shlita, head of the Moetzas Gedolei Torah of Shas as well as presenting details to a session of the Council.

The same holds true with Degel Hatorah and Agudas Yisrael, with representatives of the parties briefing Gedolei Torah of their respective councils as they attempt to formulate an opinion and proceed with a united front.

HaGaon HaRav Chaim Kanievsky Shlita has reportedly stated the current plan, with few small modifications, is the “least of possible evils”, while the admorim of the Agudas Yisrael Council are more inclined in breaking from the coalition and bringing down the government.
