Who's invited and who's not
The MK Tzipi Hotovely (Likud) said on Sunday that, while she respects the Schalit family, Rivlin should have also invited "bereaved families, in which those who murdered their loved ones were released in the deal [to release Schalit]."Hotovely is right. The government of Israel should be ashamed of the way in which it has treated terror victims. This reminds me of Yitzchak Rabin's dismissing them in 1994-95 as 'sacrifices for peace.' I'd expect better from Binyamin Netanyahu, Ruby Rivlin (the Knesset speaker who controls invitations) and the Likud. It's disgraceful.
"The difficult side of the deal should be expressed, as well," she explained. "It was a complex moment, while many were happy that Schalit was released, it cannot be denied that many families were hurt because terrorists were set free."

Exactly. What does it say about a country that cannot even bring itself to console those who have lost even the semblance of justice?
Truly shameful!
With this, along with the approval to build an Arab neighbourhood in the heart of Jerusalem, the government's effective inaction over the rocket attacks, it seems Likud are determined to irritate just about everyone that voted for them!
Bibi's totally lost his mind.
Seeing her picture makes me think her name should be MK Tzipi HotLovely (Likud)
