The uninteresting round of 16 match arranged for us by Hammondchiel between Japan and Croatia at 17:00 allowed us to zap between it and a much more stormy duel, arranged for us by the members of the team that went down from the political field as a loser.
It was interesting to see what the two current affairs programs of this hour would do, with the lift arranged for them by Prime Minister Yair Lapid in a classic read-my-leaves speech of "If you think what I said is sedition, I have news for you - you haven't seen anything yet" aimed at Netanyahu , when he actually officially confirms: after MK Gadi's promise ("to take a million people to the streets") Eisenkot, and MK Yair's announcement ("So what if there were elections? The majority is the judge") Golan - the defeated team declares a desire to rebel the public against the election results.
In "Five with Sharon Gal" the captain of the group went on the attack in an opening speech - "This is irresponsibility like no other and an unimaginable anti-democratic demonstration" - took off his gloves and hinted at the derailment of an incumbent prime minister, who warns of the tangible danger of encouraging war in the streets.
From there the ball passed to Eldad Yaniv, who was proud of his past as bringing people to the streets - "You are realizing Nasrallah's vision" - and admitted that such a divisive campaign on the part of the political camp he came from is a real danger, which serves our enemies.
At the same time, on the competitor's channel, Rafi Rashef's program was quieter than an episode of "Intimi", ignored the incident and continued to provide a warm home and a cradle for the news company's outcast.
Team captain Reshef - who accustomed the viewers to the "danger of division" chatter only when it comes to the statements of Amsalem, Distel and the "no-no-no" team - is really not expected to comment on Lapid, but isn't a right-wing political commentator who sits on such a panel bothered?
It's already puzzling.
Fortunately, there were two such people sitting with Rashef, Amit Segal and Yair Sharki, who did not see fit to be overly shocked.
One has to assume that the human archive, Segal, has not seen in all its years of coverage a losing prime minister who, upon descending to the bench, already declares that as far as civil rebellion is concerned - he will start at his most inciting, and slowly increase.
When the previous government was replaced, those studios were really afraid of demonstrations by Netanyahu's supporters, to the point of "increasing the Knesset guard".
It cannot be that a player who is already threatening to blow up the game will not be called "foul" and given a yellow card, and maybe even a red.
were we wrong
