Aloni Agrees
To Quit Post
Jerusalem (JTA) —
Shulamit Aloni agreed this
week to step down from her
post as education minister,
but it was not immediately
clear whether the proposed
Cabinet reshuffle would
prevent Prime Minister Yit-
zhak Rabin's center-left co-
alition government from col-
lapsing.
The government, mean-
while, survived three no-
confidence motions in the
Knesset, but not without a
raucous debate that many
described as the stormiest in
years.
Mr. Rabin asked for Ms.
Aloni's resignation in an at-
tempt to prevent the fervent-
ly Orthodox Shas party from
leaving his coalition as it
threatened to do Sunday
when its chairman, Aryeh
Deri, resigned his post as
interior minister.
But Mr. Rabin also cannot
afford to alienate M. Aloni,
who heads the left-wing
Meretz bloc, which controls
an even larger bloc of votes
in the Knesset than Shas
does.
Under Mr. Rabin's propos-
ed deal, Ms. Aloni would
step down from the edu-
cation post but remain as
minister of culture, a post
now considered to be part of
the education portfolio. In
addition, she would pick up
the communications port-
folio now held by Moshe
Shahal of Labor.
Mr. Shahal would stay on
as police minister and pick
up the energy portfolio cur-
rently held by Amnon
Rubinstein of Meretz, who,
in turn, would replace Ms.
Aloni as education minister.
The deal would leave the
Education Ministry in the
hands of the secularist
Meretz bloc and would leave
Ms. Aloni in control, as
communications minister, of
the Israel Broadcasting Au-
thority, the parent body of
state television and radio.
Mr. Deri said Shas could
not possibly accept such an
arrangement, which would
be tantamount to "giving
the cherries in the cake" to
Ms. Aloni.
Meretz also initially re-
jected the formula, saying
that the party deserved ad-
ditional concessions for
agreeing to have its leader
assume a lower-profile post.
It demanded, among other
things, that a third Meretz
minister be added to the
"inner Cabinet" of senior
ministers dealing with na-
tional security matters.
