Tzipi Livni has resigned.
And don’t try telling her she made a mistake by not bringing Kadima into the coalition:
Livni said that although she was leaving the Knesset, she was not going to absent herself from public life. In a swipe at current Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, she said in her speech that she was "not sorry for refusing to sell out the government to the haredi Orthodox in order to form a government."
OK, so she’s not sorry. But I’m still wondering how things would have played out differently. Sounds like an alternate history novel for Ron Kampeas!
