Government on the verge of collapse? Against the background of the citizenship bill that will be enacted soon, MK Simcha Rotman pressed today (Thursday) in the plenum on the chairman of the RAAM party, MK Mansour Abbas, who responded with surprising statements.
Rothman asked Abbas who made the speech regarding the Citizenship Law: “You think this law is a good and justified law. Because if you thought it was a bad law, as your friends said and as they said in committee and as when they did all the media performances, you would overthrow this government, you would Says there’s no more coalition, “he said,” you let him go up, and you act like … so say it’s a good law and we support it. “
Abbas responded: “We will in any case vote against this law even if it comes up in a no – confidence vote – it does not mean that the government will fall, we do not know what will happen.”
“But,” he added, “there is a whole set of considerations that we put at our doorstep. Arab society is a bloody society that suffers from many hardships, crime and violence that have been neglected for many years during Netanyahu’s governments, killing 120 civilians and hundreds of wounded families.”
“Therefore, when the Prime Minister has to decide: whether to overthrow the government, or to withdraw time and try to make another effort to change the policy, to bring decisions and laws for the benefit of Arab society. We will decide according to a general consideration and beyond one point, there is no doubt that this law deserves to fall on governments. “
Rothman refused to accept the remarks and still asserted that Abbas contradicted himself by saying that the law deserved to be dropped by governments and at the same time took care to vote against but leave the government in place.
