Avigdor Lieberman (leader of Yisrael Beiteinu; secular-nationalist) — coalition-crisis statements, 27 May 2019: "We are in favor of a Jewish state, we are against a halachic state" — his anti-ultra-Orthodox-coercion / Haredi-draft-equality stand that forced Israel's first-ever repeat election. [Second doc — distinct SECULARISM / religion-state axis, vs his 2010 UN foreign-policy address.]

I want to emphasize yet again: We are in favor of a Jewish state, we are against a halachic [Jewish law] state.

I agree it's not just the draft law. The draft law became a symbol… but look at what is happening here.

[SECOND DOCUMENT for Avigdor Lieberman, covering a DISTINCT axis from his existing one (his 2010 UN General Assembly foreign-policy address on the Israeli–Palestinian conflict and land/population arrangements). This document is his defining DOMESTIC axis: SECULAR-NATIONALISM and the religion-vs-state struggle. Source: his statements during the May 2019 coalition negotiations, as reported in English translation by The Times of Israel (article dated 27 May 2019); original Hebrew; tier-2; both quotes confirmed verbatim against the fetched page; "[Jewish law]" is ToI's editorial gloss of the Hebrew term "halachic"; the "…" is the source's elision; the quotes' terminal commas (before "Liberman said") are rendered here as periods.] A distinct declared position of Avigdor Lieberman — leader of the secular-nationalist Yisrael Beiteinu party and a frequent kingmaker in Israeli coalition politics. In May 2019 he refused to join Benjamin Netanyahu's coalition unless the Haredi (ultra-Orthodox) military-conscription law passed unchanged, collapsing the coalition and forcing Israel's first-ever repeat election. His framing was a clean statement of SECULARISM within the nationalist right: "We are in favor of a Jewish state, we are against a halachic [Jewish law] state" — i.e., a Jewish-national but NOT religiously-governed state — and he cast the draft-exemption fight as a symbol of resisting ultra-Orthodox coercion over the public sphere ("The draft law became a symbol… but look at what is happening here"). This is the SECULAR / anti-clerical pole of the Israeli right — equal national-service obligations, opposition to religious coercion, and a secular conception of the Jewish state — distinct from the religious-Zionist and Haredi parties. [Axes: religion-and-state (secularism vs a "halachic state"; opposition to ultra-Orthodox coercion; separation of religious law from governance), military-service / civic-equality (universal conscription; ending Haredi draft exemptions; equal sharing of the national burden), Jewish-identity-of-the-state (a "Jewish state" defined nationally/secularly rather than by religious law), coalition-politics / governance (willingness to topple a government and force elections over the issue). NOTE: a declared-position document — Lieberman's stated secular-nationalist position as reported, scoped to the religion-state axis his existing document does not cover.]
