Who thought that all catastrophes, specifically ant-bear virus and bats, would threaten us with names?

I can't help but think that the Corona virus is the real story. Maybe we miss the size of the hour in the wrong sense of the hour, and the danger lurking. The humanity that has come into space and developed the sliced ​​bread is threatened with one tiny virus, a microscopic parasite that is hosted in a live cell to reproduce.

In the epilogue of "War and Peace," Tolstoy analyzes the war and offers brilliant insight into the human soul in times of danger. As danger approaches, the great writer writes, two voices appear in a human heart. One, reasonably speaking and analyzing the situation, instructs a person to know and understand the nature of the danger and how to avoid it and cope if it comes. The second voice, though logical, seeks to divert thought from danger.

Early dealing with danger is painful and disturbing, because one cannot avoid the danger and fate of events, so it is best not to deal with danger until it arrives and in the meantime to think of more pleasant things. A man in his loneliness, Tolstoy writes, usually turns to the first voice - the voice of reason. When in the company - he / she turns to the other voice.

Repression will not help, and there is no point in underestimating it. True, the Corona virus came as a complete surprise; After all, no one imagined that of all the dangers and catastrophes expected to exterminate us, it was precisely the cold-virus virus of ants and bats that threatened to name us. Reality has become the story of a seventh-grade movie channel on a movie channel at one o'clock. The virus threatens humanity, destroying seniors and Iranians. Wash hands with soap, keep your older parents safe, and don't make head-butt in the logical voice that speaks to you.

Post (Mortem) Election First: Sour Feeling, Although Sunday Night I would sign 58 seats for the right bloc. We celebrated too fast. Netanyahu, in his game of life, brought to the right a crushing victory among the Jewish public. But the game changed from the moment the Anti-Zionist Joint Party came in, and from the moment the initiative to enact a personal law against the Prime Minister emerged and against the democratic decision of the majority of the Jewish people in Israel. Not that the initiative surprised me. The hatred and desire to humiliate right-wing voters surpass any imagination.

A friend, a very serious guy, sims me this week: "I want to take this opportunity to ask you for forgiveness. For months now you have been digging for me that if the right loses elections, the left will fire us, step on us and put us in re-education camps, without the High Court And without B'Tselem. Whenever you told me that, I blasphemed you and told you you were paranoid. When I heard about this bill today, and saw the reactions of all members of the media, I realized you were right. Their camp, and their glorious democracy, has no inhibitions and no boundaries. "

I was not surprised because I have been screaming down my throat for three years. The line is clear: the elite are mobilized on all sides, the media echoing the leaks of the prosecutor's office that made Netanyahu precedent and trying to close his eyes to his rivals. After all, had it not been for a High Court petition, the whole story of the fifth dimension would have been deeply buried. The election proved that a large majority of the Jewish public had lost confidence in the law enforcement system.

They saw the pursuit of man and not the truth and justice. But unfortunately, the camp he lost, the Jewish left-center, our brothers, our flesh, our family - are impervious to the message. To the pain. Instead of waking up and thinking or just wondering why so many voters feel wrong, they blame those who poured their hearts into the ballot box.

Suddenly, in early March, it became clear that the Israeli elite, through the Budget Pensions Party, was less concerned about religious extremism, nationalism, homophobia, polygamy and pictures of mass murderers in the living room. When it comes to the joint list - everything is forgiven: Islamic Movement, Arab Art and Communists supporting Assad.

The loathing and dread left to Ali's preparation. Religion, they scream at Jews. For the Arabs it is a noble savage. From arrogance and paternalism do not get rid of that fast. not surprising. Those who in the first place applauded witness blackmail and interrogation, those who are willing to use anti-democratic legislation to eradicate an opponent, whose entire ideology is just not Bibi, will cooperate with Yizbak, Tibi and another to crush millions and not, for example, try to form a unity government.

In confiscating Netanyahu, the left is rejecting the choice of prime minister voters. They basically say, we don't care what you think, your values, the question marks. We know you are worthless dumbbells and so we will not try to reconcile and understand with you, but we will destroy you and humiliate you (but we will talk On statehood and oneness).

This week, Dr. Avishay Ben Haim tweeted : "It's also a fascinating moment for Israeli historians:" The Israeli elite ... in its struggle for hegemony, deepens the rift between Jews and Arabs and enlists Israeli Arabs to help oust and imprison the Jewish leader and symbol Most revered in the first quarter of the 21st century and controlled by its supporters: Most of the Jewish people sitting in Zion (* It is important to emphasize: the "Jewish majority" argument is democratically meaningless and forbidden, but it is impossible for Israeli historians to ignore it when they want to study history The Jewish interior and the history of the Zionist movement).

I agree with Avishai almost entirely, except for the interest of the Jewish majority.

I have no problem talking about a Jewish majority, because it is a Jewish state, the home of the Jewish people. I am not a member of the Hiba Yazbak or Ahmed Tibi people, I am part of the Jewish people and this is the most important element of my identity. The citizenship of the Arab citizen is, of course, equal to mine and his power in the ballot is equal to mine - but our national motivation is completely different. It's not because national law is a bad litmus paper: the members of the joint view themselves as Palestinians with Israeli citizenship. The conflicting interests.

Legitimate on the part of the Arab MKs to want the State of Israel to cease to be a Jewish state, but also legitimate on the part of the Jewish majority to prevent it. And let's face it: The left, which has been advocating two states for two peoples and a Jewish majority, plays with the Arab list for some reason Here screwed up and thrown, use the Arabs to get rid of Netanyahu but then throw them on the side of the road.

I have been following the journey of the Progressive Left in Israel for 20 years. At last they found Messiah's donkey - a perfect platform, three generals run by the media. Blue and white travel along the path that progressives in America have outlined. If we do not stop, it will end with a change in the Law of Return.

Wash hands with soap, take care of your parents, do not get a headache in the logical voice that speaks to you.

Legitimate on the part of Arab MKs to want Israel to stop being a Jewish state, but legitimate on the part of the Jewish majority to prevent it
