Chairman of the United Right and the Jewish Home Party, Rabbi Rafi Peretz, commented, Tuesday, on Member of Knesset Bezalel Smotrich's statement on Monday that the "foundation of Torah law" was a reason for his wanting to be justice minister.

Rabbi Peretz told Channel 13 News, "We do not intend that Israel change its face from day to day. We have a dream, a vision, a Torah, I do not hide it, but I have a lot of patience and trust in my people."
