7 ministers send letter to Netanyahu asking for Knesset session on terrorist release

Buried in a story about Naftali Bennett's eulogy for murdered IDF soldier Gabriel Gal Kobi HY"D (May God Avenge his blood) on Monday was this:
Bennett joined six other Knesset ministers in sending a letter to Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu to convene the Knesset with the aim of discussing the ongoing release of Palestinian prisoners as an integral part of the continuing peace talks.
Other ministers who signed the letter included Transportation Minister Israel Katz, who has recently lashed verbal attacks in Netanyahu's direction and Senior Citizens Minister Uri Orbach.
Bennett told mourners present at the funeral that Israel must exact a price on terrorism to show Israel places value on its soldiers lives.
"We must stop giving our enemies the impression that Jewish blood has become the cheapest commodity in the Middle East," Bennett declared. "Make no mistake about us. We will not lay down our weapons. We will not blink."
I'm not finding it now, but I have a vague recollection that one of the reasons for the terrorists being released in four stages was that each stage would have to be brought to the cabinet for approval. If that's the case, and if Bennett can bring it to the Knesset and thinks he can pass something there, why can't Bennett mobilize enough cabinet members to vote down the next phase of the release? Or is Bennett afraid that if he does it that way, Netanyahu will threaten to fire everyone and win?

I have never seen a more spineless collection of politicians than what we have in this country.
