On Sunday night, former prime and finance minister Benyamin Netanyahu slammed the newly elected Labor chairman, Amir Peretz. The Jerusalem Post quoted Netanyahu as harshly criticizing Peretz for his policies and adding that the new chairman, "will deplete the treasury [and] will strangle the market with policies that surrender to the powerful committees and the monopolies." Netanyahu held nothing back against Peretz, but was also sure to include some self-praise as finance minister stating, "The policies that we carried out rescued Israel's economy, filled the country's coffers, and allows for real aid to the needy."
