The prime minister hopes both Bayit HaYehudi and Yesh Atid will give the Kandel Plan their stamp of approval but the two party leaders, Naftali Bennett and Yair Lapid have already signaled they will oppose it, the daily Maariv reports.
Despite Shas efforts to team up with Bennett?s dati leumi party to form a chareidi bloc, Bennett and Lapid appear committed to their agreement, to either join the coalition or opposition as a unit, each promising not to cut a deal with the prime minister without the other. Clearly, if the prime minister wishes to include the chareidim with their combined 18 seats in the coalition he will have to find an acceptable share the burden formula, which seems to lock out Bennett and Lapid with their combined 31 seats.
Likud appears to be heading away from the Ya?alon plan which was acceptable to Gedolei Yisrael Shlita in Bnei Brak. Some Yahadut Hatorah MKs released statements that they can live with such an arrangement, as did Shas officials. However, it appears the coalition cannot, resulting in the modified plan prepared by Professor Kandel. The new plan is more severe than the original plan in the hope of winning over Bennett and Lapid, but modified enough that Likud/Beitenu feels the chareidim will still accept it.
It appears HaGaon HaRav Aaron Yehuda Leib Shteinman Shlita is willing to accept the Ya?alon plan while HaGaon HaRav Shmuel Auerbach Shlita is unwilling to accept a situation in which bnei Torah are drafted. The new plan is just being unveiled so it is too soon to know if this will result in a change in the decision of Rav Shteinman.
