Matan Kahana

Ministers acting without a law.

There was a cross-party motion about motorbikes rigged to imitate air raid sirens, with sponsors from Shahs, Likud, and Yisrael Baitinu, plus Matan Kahana.

The committee told the Justice Ministry to get moving on higher noise fines.

Then last November...

Number two is Yoram Cohen, a former head of the Shinbet.

Then Orit Farkash Hakohen, Matan Kahana, Chili Tropper.

Four of his top six came out of Gantz's blue and white.

He didn't just leave Gantz then.

Bennett belongs to that pragmatic tradition.

So does Matan Kahana, who despite his last name, is pretty far from Meir Kahane.

He too is a religious Zionist, but as Minister of Religious Affairs, Kahana went and did something nobody had ever dared.

He broke the Chief Rabbinate's monopoly on kashrut certification, making things kosher.
