In the Likud, mountains and hills offered "powerful" people, but these insist on "banging their heads against the wall" and ignoring the possibility that their failure will topple the entire right • Commentary

In recent weeks, the Likud has offered Jewish power mountains and hills to retire from its hopeless race: building long-term freeze agreements in Jerusalem and Judea and Samaria, lowering the blockage rate in the next elections to succeed the Knesset's entry barrier, and also tempting a row of officials. Many of them admit they have no chance of passing the blocking percentage. They are aware that the tens of thousands of votes cast for them will not be counted in the computation of seats; these votes are actually thrown into the trash bin, but they have a "crushing argument": Our truth. ”Their teacher and rabbi, Rabbi Meir Kahana, left them with this matter And regular network: "Even if you do not move - our truth to be heard." "This has tremendous value," they come back and explain again and again, ignoring deliberately the possibility that this failure of their topple the rightist bloc, and will block opposite to form a government that is far off their worldviews several times.

Time and again, they fail and deceive their public that this is happening: in the 17th Knesset elections, they won 25,000 votes and did not pass the 62,000-ballot vote. In the elections for the 19th Knesset, they received 1.76% of the vote, and did not pass the 2% blockade. In the elections for the 20th Knesset, they won 3% of the eligible votes and did not pass the 3.25% blockage rate. In the elections for the 22nd Knesset, they received 1.88% of the vote and again did not pass the blocking rate of 3.25%.

And now they are again fooling the public, and in the rooms talking about their "truth." They may be right with their "truth." They may be wrong. That's not the point at all. The "truth" can be voiced outside the Knesset. Big movements from them have done this over the years and with considerable success. Whether this is a bloc of allegiance, or whether it is peace now, and they have made an impact, and how they have made an impact. The "truth" can be heard in a newspaper, and articles and demonstrations and books and presentations and interviews and more. But when "truth" puts at risk your beliefs; When this "truth" has no real chance of entering the Knesset, and when this "truth" risks the possibility that another "truth", which is only close but not identical to your "truth", will win the election - it is no longer "truth". It's stupidity and vanity and delusion.

Jewish power voters must also hear this truth before they are mistaken again in the polling booth.
