Gideon Sa’ar leaves the Knesset, begins forming new party
The big political event of the week was the announcement by Gideon Sa’ar that he was leaving Likud, and forming a new party,
Sa’ar has a long history in Israeli politics. He was in the Knesset from 2003, Minister of Education, then Minister of Interior. He left then returned to the Knesset, challenged Bibi in a Likud primary, and lost. Then Bibi kept him out of the government and any Knesset committee seats. Now he’s resigned again from the Knesset, and Likud, and hopes to be Prime Minister. Instead of Bibi. [Ira Sharkansky, Ph.D]
