It was a political demonstration. Probably political. A proud, upright politician who does not hide behind milky slogans and fake unity messages. A real demonstration, as demonstrations should look and sound. Those who want a "brotherhood together" should go and participate in the "Israeli Friday" campaign, those who want to influence the agenda and living conditions, and bring about social or economic or political change - demonstrate against the decision makers. 

Politically, yes, what's so scary about that word? There is one who leads, he has responsibility, and when he does not behave as an elected public is supposed to behave, go out against him, what here does not make sense? Say, that demonstration in Zion Square, what was it exactly, a Shabbat reception in Gan Shifra? Or maybe we missed something and that was a prayer for the well-being of the then Prime Minister, Yitzhak Rabin?

Netanyahu and his supporters are allowed to demonstrate openly and fearlessly. They can shout against the justice system, Arabs, leftists, incite and slap and blame - anything is allowed. But when God forbid someone dares to go against the prime minister and demand that he take responsibility for his failures, he immediately becomes "non-political." Increased to do MK Osnat Hila Mark, who claimed that she did not see the demonstration on Saturday as business owners but only leftists, since it is not possible for a cafe owner to have a moral position and worldview in any field other than replacing cow's milk with soy milk. 

There were already protests in Israel that evaporated only because those who led them were afraid to get their hands dirty. People wanted to create a stately, clean, sterile atmosphere. The students' protest against university tuition did not lead to any change, because its leaders did not want to direct the fire at those in charge of economic policy. In the social protest we shouted "The people demand social justice" - but from whom the hell does he demand it, from Static and Ben-El or from the elected representatives of the public? Everything is political: health, education, equal rights, abortions, conversion, public transportation on Saturday, all political issues. Journalist Hannah Kim describes it well, saying that "there is nothing more political than the price of bread."

People are collapsing economically. They are afraid of what is going to happen tomorrow, the day after tomorrow, see no future. Until four months ago they supported their family with dignity and now they are crying out for help. All life they gave to the state, and in the moment of truth the state abandoned them. They are now watching in amazement as whoever is supposed to take care of them, the prime minister, throws their lives off the negotiating table to discuss his private life. 

And they understand that no change will come, ever, from fur demonstrations. Anger does not lead to action, only anger. Politicians do not act as long as the ground beneath their feet is not shaking. They only move when they feel the air running out, that they are suffocating.
