Yitzhak Cohen

Rabbi Isaac Cohen (Hebrew: יצחק כהן, born 2 October 1951) is an Israeli politician who served as a member of the Knesset for Shas in two spells between 1996 and 2020.

He compared the event to when the US got intelligence in World War Two that said there were trains going to concentration camps, and they said they were being used for industrial purposes.

[2] In 2009, in an interview with the Spiegel, Cohen threatened to suspend relations with the Vatican, following the lifting of the excommunication of controversial bishop Richard Williamson.

After being re-elected for a sixth time in 2015, he regained the post of Deputy Minister of Finance in the new government.

He gave up his Knesset seat in February 2018 under the Norwegian Law, and was replaced by Danny Saida.
