Interesting! Look what I found on Fishman's blog! What does that mean? Wool over people's eyes?

Rav Yakov Yosef (son of): "Shas has betrayed it's Council of Sages"Rabbi Yakov Yosef: Shas betrays the Council of Sages when it stays in the gov't and endangers the nation ...In response to Shas' claim that they will quit only when (the negotiations will bear fruit), he said," What exactly are Tzipi Livni and Condoleeza Rice talking about ? ... To what is this like, to a man whose son is about to be slaughtered. They tie up the son and the father says 'there's time.' They sharpen the knife and he waits because there's still time. Only a fool will wait until the knife is on the boy's neck."

Strange because Shas doesn't do anything without consulting with the Council of Torah Sages.
