Obituaries were early: the right block is alive, well - and kicking Israel today

Gantz, Lieberman and their friends have already finished burying the block that is preventing them from being transformed, but at most it is a wishful thinking, and at worst - in propaganda • If there is no surprise such as an unexpected scale collapse, the United Right Block will go together again, in fire and water, to the government - or, God forbid. More choices • Interpretation

The polls currently look ominous for the right, the camp's legal future is in the fog, but the bloc - which is in the Knesset exiting 55 seats - is alive and well, kicking and functioning. The obituary reports were too early. They originate mainly from interested parties from the other side, or those that are not updated from the first party. If there is no surprise in the form of an unexpected scale of collapse - the United Right Block will again go together, in fire and water, to the government or, God forbid, another election. One by one, senior blue-and-white officials have come up for broadcast in recent days, claiming that once the Knesset left for elections, the right-wing bloc has ceased to exist. The intention is clear, after all, the only way for blue and white to present their voters with a realistic possibility of forming a government is through the dissolution of the bloc.

Whoever jumped on the bargain is Avigdor Lieberman, who announced that the right-wing camp has been dismantled and that the ultra-Orthodox parties have already concluded a coalition agreement with Benny Gantz for the next joint government. But at most it is a wish, and in the worst case, a false propaganda. Lieberman is running for the anti-Haredi ticket again, and he has no interest in competing with white and blue and there is a future that could secure a secular government again and steal expensive mandates.

For Deri and Gaffney, Netanyahu is a true ally

Yesterday, Shas chairman Aryeh Deri was interviewed by IDF waves and made it clear that next time they will go with Netanyahu as one man. Minutes later, Moshe Gaffney came on the radio station on a level voice and said similar things. More than the clarification itself was fascinating to hear the explanation. For them, he is a true ally, persecuted by the judiciary just like them, admired and admired by their constituents, so his relationship with him is an indissoluble bond.

Netanyahu's absolute backing from the bloc party leaders far exceeds the loyalty the prime minister receives from his party members. This loyalty is to allow the prime minister to design the bloc at will. Impose its weight on unions or divisions to maximize its electoral power.

He and they know that this time the fight is unbearable. Polls are predicting bad. Decisiveness at best, discriminating at worst. Perhaps this is also why they cling to each other like a straw drowning grip. Whatever the reason, the assumption of the work of the electorate and the electorate will from now on be one: the right block in concrete, just as it was.
