*Shas chairman Rabbi Aryeh Deri:*  

The dismissed and anarchist Attorney General, charging ahead with arrests and harsh sanctions against Torah students, is pushing the ultra-Orthodox public to the brink and will lead it to a tax revolt, a break with the police, and a deep rift with state authorities. Anyone who cares about the future of the country must rise up against this madness.  

*I cry out and warn the Prime Minister and the heads of the right-wing parties — Likud, Religious Zionism, and Otzma Yehudit: If you truly wish to preserve the existence of the right-wing bloc, you must stand firmly against this criminal persecution. Your voices are not being heard!*  

It cannot be that we will be the punching bag of this government, that they will harm everything sacred and dear to the Jewish people, while you stand by and remain silent. Silence is filth!
