It was a stormy faction meeting session for Bayit Yehudi on Monday, 4 Menachem Av, as party leader Naftali Bennett was called upon to respond as to why his party is not doing more to prevent the destruction of homes in Beit El. As per a ruling from the Supreme Court, the 24 homes in question must be razed by the end of July.
Among those attending the faction meeting was Beit El Mayor Shai Alon, who called on the dati leumi party to do more to prevent additional homes in the community from being destroyed. Bennet directed them to the Prime Minister’s Office, insisting his party is doing everything possible. “You always target those who do as much as they can to assist you” Bennett is quoting saying, adding “you send children to protest outside my home in Ra’anana instead of pressuring the prime minister for hi is the correct address”.
Bennett pointed out that reality being what it is one must realize the heads of councils in Yehuda and Shomron are loyal to Likud, not Bayit Yehudi.

If Bennett cannot stop the destruction of homes in Beit El, he is useless. Also don’t buy off on the brainless charade they call courts and law. Just give them any rational however ridiculous, after that it’s just a question of strength.
