Knesset Speaker Dalia Itzik on Tuesday morning had harsh words for the missing members of Knesset, those who did not bother to attend a special session called during the recess to address the legitimacy of the current Olmert-led administration.

After obtaining 25 signatures of MKs, the session was called in accordance to protocol, interrupting summer recess, but to the amazement of all, only 13 of the 120 MKs bothered to attend. Not even all who signed the petition bothered to show.
