MK Tzvi Hendel said today that President Moshe Katzav is "kicking out at the basic values on which he was brought up, in order to 'butter up' the left-wing." Katzav said earlier today that soldiers must obey all orders, except those that are clearly illegal - "and an order to desecrate the Sabbath... is not clearly illegal." This contrasts with standing General Staff army orders that stipulate that the Sabbath may be desecrated only for combat purposes. MK Hendel said that Katzav's above behavior is characteristic of Likud members who reach high positions.
