The Likud party issued a statement Saturday evening responding to what it termed 'blasphemous words' by Yisrael Beiteinu leader Avigdor Liberman. The party asserted that, unlike Liberman's party which it characterized as a dictatorship, Likud under Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is a democratic party. Likud also warned that if the Shin Bet security service were to be subordinate to Liberman even for a single day, it would constitute a 'real danger' to every Israeli citizen. The statement did not specify the exact remarks by Liberman that prompted the response.
