On August 3rd the Knesset started an 88-day recess. Over that time the plenum did meet four times. On August 16 and 23 the Knesset met to discuss 4 motions each. On September 19 and October 24 the Knesset discussed 5 motions each. No laws were discussed over the near three month period.
Tomorrow, October 31, the Knesset will get back to work. The day’s agenda starts off with speeches from Speaker Rivlin, President Peres, Prime Minister Netanyahu and Opposition Leader Livni. Following the festivities, the Knesset will vote on five no-confidence motions from the opposition which are expected to fail.

First off I would like to say superb blog! I had a quick question which I’d like to ask if you don’t mind. I was curious to know how you center yourself and clear your head prior to writing. I have had a tough time clearing my mind in getting my thoughts out. I truly do take pleasure in writing however it just seems like the first 10 to 15 minutes tend to be lost simply just trying to figure out how to begin. Any recommendations or tips? Many thanks! office armoire
