By JPOST.COM STAFF
Shas chairman Eli Yishai, whose party is already tied in agreements with Likud to serve in the next coalition, spoke on the phone on Friday with Labor secretary general Eitan Cabel, No. 7 on Labor's MK list, and detailed to him the importance of Labor joining Binyamin Netanyahu's fledgling coalition. Cabel is one of the fiercest objectors to Labor chairman Ehud Barak's efforts to join Netanyahu in a unity government.
