One of the embarrassing moments in the last year and a half of the election was the moment when Amir Peretz dropped his mustache after decades, to get six minutes in the news release.

If that humiliating act was not enough, in the six minutes he was given, he did not talk about his grandiose plans, which he intends to do, that will affect the country or the glorious legacy of the Labor party, but a whole six minutes in which he talked only about Netanyahu and a promise not to sit with him. And from that moment it all deteriorated.

The connection to Orly Levi-Abaxis yielded only six seats, and in this election the party reached an all-time low - only three seats. There seems to be no greater failure than that. If nothing dramatic happens, it is almost certain that the next Labor Party and Amir Peretz will be wiped off the political map altogether.

Peretz: "The people of Gantz acted irresponsibly"

Peretz's name will forever be recorded as the collapse and disappearance of the Israeli left-wing party headed by legends such as Levi Eshkol, Golda Meir, Shimon Peres and Yitzhak Rabin.

In any social norm, in the private or public sector, the chairman of a company that brought Ryssuke takes his belongings, gives way and goes home. In other cases, he tries to make a makeover, dramatic, painful, difficult steps that can get her out of the mud. Amir Peretz does nothing He does not say "failed" and gives way, but also does not take courageous steps.

It operates in zero political logic. For example, in recent days, right-wing parties have been offering him proposals that have political logic and interest for each of the Labor Party members:

Peretz can strive for a unity government with Netanyahu, and in two and a half years he will be president of the state. When that happens, Itzik Shmuli will receive the reins for the party, and may be able to save her with fresh young blood. And Orly Levi-Axis? After the glaze from Israel, our home to Meretz, it is the surefire way to disappear from the political map.

This executive role in this government may be the last lifeline for her political career. Why is this not happening? Anyone who has spoken to Peretz in recent days cannot get a logical explanation, other than the fear of communication. that make sense.

Such a move would in fact trigger a few days of Twitter bites, removing videos from the election campaign where he violates his promises. Unpleasant, but not something a courageous politician, or a politician who has nothing to lose, should not be able to deal with.
