    “‘Israel’s’ deepening #conscription #crisis, driven by military exhaustion, political fragmentation & the #UltraOrthodox #exemption, is pushing the #Zionist project toward an irreversible #internal #collapse. #Netanyahu’s survival strategy [..] has accelerated the implosion”

  4. #Netanyahu’s governing coalition is fracturing. Here’s what it means for #Israel and #Gaza

    An Israeli #UltraOrthodox party that has been a key governing partner of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said early Tuesday it was leaving the coalition government.

    TEL AVIV, Israel (AP) — "Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s government suffered a serious blow on Tuesday when an ultra-Orthodox party announced it was bolting the coalition.

    "While this doesn’t immediately threaten Netanyahu’s rule, it could set in motion his government’s demise, although that could still be months away. It also could complicate efforts to halt the war in Gaza.

    "#UnitedTorahJudaism’s two factions said they were leaving the government because of disagreements over a proposed law that would end broad exemptions for religious students from enlistment into the military.

    "Military service is compulsory for most Jewish Israelis, and the issue of exemptions has long divided the country. Those rifts have only widened since the start of the war in Gaza as demand for military manpower has grown and hundreds of soldiers have been killed.

    "The threat to the government 'looks more serious than ever,' said Shuki Friedman, vice president of the Jewish People Policy Institute, a Jerusalem think tank.

    "Netanyahu is on trial for alleged #corruption, and critics say he wants to hang on to power so that he can use his office as a bully pulpit to rally supporters and lash out against prosecutors and judges. That makes him all the more vulnerable to the whims of his coalition allies."

    Fania Oz-Salzberger notes the disastrous consequences for Israel of a 1953 law which made provision for "the near-complete autonomy of ultra-Orthodox schools with no core curriculum, no secular subjects, no history and geography and languages, no sciences, hardly any math, and a heavily policed gender separation. "

  7. Motion was voted on, and failed to pass.

    Late at night it turned out that, following negotiation, most #UltraOrthodox MKs would want to give #Netanyahu an extra week and would vote against the motion.

    The opposition decided to go through with the motion, fearing that in that week, the UltraOrthodox will have a leverage against Netanyahu (the opposition generally does not support them).

    Eventually only 3 of the 7 Ashkenazy Yahadut Hatora party voted for it.

    #israel #israpol

  8. Opposition parties in #Israel have decided to go through with the non-confidence motion. If it fails, a new one cannot be submitted for the next 6 months.

    The Ashkenazy[1] #UltraOrthodox party has comitted to support it. However, the support of the larger, Sepharady, UltraOrthodox party (Shas) is still needed.

    We'll see how this unfolds.

    [1] Yes, the UltraOrthodox are quite racists among themselves.

  9. Tomorrow (Wed. Jun 11th), a motion of non-confidence is likely to be put forward.

    Note that the motion has to go through four votes: if there's a vote tomorrow, there's still a great deal of procedure it should go through.

    But it would be a clear signal that the current coalition is on its way out.

    The issue triggering the vote is #conscription , where the #UltraOrthodox parties want to avoid it. Opposition here would generally want to push the government into action.

    #israel #israpol

  10. Update: Shavuot is over and with it the ultimatum. There are various reports that both #UltraOrthodox parties will support a non-confidence vote. Or rather: technically this is a bill like any other, and must pass four votes of confidence. This can last for weeks and be stopped at any part of it.

    But there are good chances of elections in October or so.

    #Israel #israpol

  11. Next week #Netanyahu is facing two challenges in the local front:

    The government failed to pass the [non] conscription law that should have made it legal for #ultraOrthodox ("Hassidi") Jews not to conscript to the IDF.

    The UltraOrthodox parties now threaten a non-confidence vote.

    The common wisdom is that they have nothing to gain from it, as the current government is the best they could hope for.

    OTOH, their leadership may want this law too badly.

    The #Nationalists and #UltraOrthodox are now in power.

    “The overhaul calls for sweeping changes aimed at curbing the powers of the judiciary, from limiting the Israeli #SupremeCourt’s ability to challenge parliamentary decisions to changing the way judges are selected."
