MK Tzvi Hendel (National Union), who was expelled from his home in the Gush Katif town of Netzer Hazani, slammed Chaim Ramon's appointment as head of negotiations with Fatah on behalf of the government.

"There is no greater shame than the fact that a convicted criminal, who lacks morals and who promoted the evacuation of Gush Katif - which lead to the current disasters - is now conducting, on behalf of Olmert, insane negotiations for the division on Jerusalem,” MK Hendel said Tuesday.

Hendel called for the toppling of the government by the Shas and Yisrael Beiteinu parties.
