      Meeting Between PM Olmert and MK Yishai Ends


      Shas Chairman Eli Yishai's meeting with Prime Minister Ehud Olmert ended a short while ago Tuesday evening.

      The meeting apparantly dealt with Olmert's plans for negotiations and Shas's declaration that it would leave the government if Jerusalem is negotiated upon.

      MK Yishai travelled directly to the home of former Chief Rabbi Ovadia Yosef to update Shas's spiritual leader on the political developments. Rabbi Yosef will be the final arbiter of Shas's decision to stay or leave the Olmert government.
