      No-Confidence Motions Defeated


      The Knesset easily defeated two motions of no confidence on Monday.

      A motion by the Kadima party, repeating the theme of confusion in the coalition of Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu, mustered only 33 votes, as opposed to 60 votes against.

      A motion by the predominantly-Arab parties over the Judaization of eastern parts of Jerusalem only got nine votes in favor, as opposed to 69 no votes.
