Chairman Avi Gabbay of the Zionist Union has attacked the conduct of Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu following the cancellation of the infiltrator agreement with the United Nations. Gabbay said, "Lack of leadership, cowardice, escape from responsibility, incitement against publics, empty slogans, inability to make decisions, zero ability to perform. This is what we saw in the last few hours from someone who pretends to deal with the real problems and threats to the State of Israel and to Israeli society."
Gabbay concluded, "The last day has proven to millions of Israelis - from right and left, from all ethnic denominations and streams:
It's not the immigrants or the infiltrators, not the residents of southern Tel Aviv or the kibbutzniks and moshavim, it's the politicians who lack the spine."
