"Self-described ‘National Religious Party–Religious Zionism’ fascist Bezalel Smotrich has resigned as Benjamin Netanyahu’s finance minister – according to his spokesperson, in protest at fellow right-wing extremist Itamar Ben-Gvir wanting more ministerial positions for his own fascist ‘Jewish Power’ party"
It was a temporary tactical resignation. Smotrich is back at his post, larger than life and twice as ugly..
"In a letter to Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich announces his resignation as a cabinet minister and his resumption of his seat as a member of Knesset for his far right Religious Zionism party, before being reappointed to his ministerial roles.
"By reclaiming his status as an MK, Smotrich would push Otzma Yehudit MK Yitzhak Kroizer out of parliament."
Makes sense. Thanks!
@NotImpressed it's a strange system.
