Likud MK Danny Danon called on the government to pass a bill to retroactively legalize outposts in Judea and Samria on Saturday, which will be preliminary voted upon by the Knesset this coming Wednesday. The Likud MK reacted angrily to reports that Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu had agreed to evacuate the Ulpana outpost. He accused Defense Minister Ehud Barak and Kadima leader Shaul Mofaz of redirecting the coalition to the left.
"Pass the outpost bill before it is too late - Mofaz and Barak are taking the coalition left and hurting the settlement enterprise from within," Danon stated.
