Even if by some miracle Mickey Levy manages to form an Ethics Committee, it is questionable whether it can effectively deal with phenomena such as MK David Amsalem, whose verbiage is unaccebtable.
The Knesset Ethics Committee fell apart before complaints were filed alleging that MK David Amsalem (Likud) called to imprison left-wingers.
The question entered my mind while I watched the events evolve on CNN and Fox News on Wednesday, and continues to haunt me.
Amsalem was arguing that it is not the Right that is inciting its members to attack the Left, the courts and the legal system, but the Left that is responsible for the incitement in the country.
"If you want to call it right and left, call it right and left. If you want to call it black and white, call it black and white. They are black, we are white."
Meanwhile, the Likud's bond with Finance Minister Moshe Kahlon's Kulanu party was challenged in the Tel Aviv District Court on Monday.
Yesh Atid Chairman Yair Lapid, who has an autistic child, slammed Coalition Chairman David Amsalem (Likud), saying, "for him, being my daughter is a curse." Lapid has an autistic child.
Likud coalition chairman tells Alsheich "to go home and shut up."
A final vote which would have passed it into law on Monday was postponed at the request of coalition chairman David Amsalem.
“There are parties in the Knesset which are sustained by two things: war on Shabbat and war on the haredim.”
