Jerusalem (JTA) — Israel's
Labor government has
managed to overcome its
latest and most serious co-
alition crisis by reshuffling
Cabinet posts in order to
satisfy its feuding junior
partners.
Following a long day of
last-minute negotiations,
Prime Minister Yitzhak
Rabin presented the Knesset
with a new allocation of
Cabinet portfolios agreed
upon as a solution to the
crisis.
The government's move
triggered a mini-storm in
the Knesset, with the Likud-
led opposition demanding a
debate of the parliament's
confidence in the govern-
ment, despite the fact that
several Arab Knesset mem-
bers were absent on account
of the Muslim Feast of the
Sacrifice.
The new Cabinet ar-
rangements are meant to
resolve the long- simmering
rivalry between the Or-
thodox Shas party and the
secular Meretz bloc, both of
them coalition partners with
Labor.
Shas' primary demand has
been to remove Meretz
leader Shulamit Aloni from
the Education and Culture
Ministry. The party con-
tends that Ms. Aloni's fre-
quent outbursts on religious
matters, which have
offended the Orthodox, are
inappropriate for an official
in that post.
Under the deal presented,
Ms. Aloni becomes minister
of communications and min-
ister of science, and also re-
tains most of the respon-
sibility for the Department
of Culture within the Min-
istry of Education and Cul-
ture.
Ms. Aloni thereby retains
control of the Israel Broad-
casting Authority, but, in a
concession to Shas, respon-
sibility for Israel's Channel
2 television station is to be
transferred to Economic
Planning Minister Shimon
Shetreet of Labor, who
formerly also held the
science post that Aloni has
inherited.
Ms. Aloni's Meretz col-
league Amnon Rubinstein
replaces her as minister of
education and culture, even
though Ms. Aloni will
handle most of the culture
functions. Shas was deter-
mined that Ms. Aloni be
stripped of her former title.
Labor's Moshe Shahal, un-
til now minister of police and
minister of communications,
loses communications to Ms.
Aloni, but becomes minister
of energy, taking this port-
folio from Mr. Rubinstein.
Finally, Meretz gains a se-
cond minister on the Cabinet
Defense Committee — Ab-
sorbtion Minister Yair
Tsaban will join Ms. Aloni —
and a representative on the
Cabinet's Secret Services
Committee: Environment
Minister Yossi Sarid.
Mr. Sarid said ruefully,
following a special Cabinet
meeting convened to for-
malize the deal, that this
solution was probably
available weeks ago. "But it
is apparently in the nature
of such crises that they are
not resolved as quickly as
they should be," he said.
Mr. Sarid said he and his
colleagues felt foolish for
having had to devote time
and energy to this issue for
so long, when other, much
more important questions
faced the government.
Shas leader Aryeh Deri,
who is minister of interior,
said his party had "sought
nothing for itself." It had
only demanded and achieved
Ms. Aloni's removal from
the sensitive education and
culture post.
Shas, nevertheless, came
in for a blasting Monday
from its rival Orthodox par-
ty, the United Torah
Judaism Front. Yated
Ne'eman, the newspaper of
the Degel HaTorah wing of
that party, ran a banner
headline asserting that
Shas' "disgusting sur.-
render" had paved the way
to a solution of the Cabinet
crisis.
Shas had hoped that the
removal of Ms. Aloni from
the Education and Culture
Ministry could pave the way
for United Torah to join the
coalition. But this has not
come about, at least not yet.
Some political observers
predict, nevertheless, that if
the Rabin coalition settles
down and demonstrates
stability, those factions
within United Torah and
Labor that favor the Or-
thodox party's addition to
the coalition will soon
resume their discreet con-
tacts.
The Jewish religion is, above
all, Jewish patriotism.
