Public trust • Opinion

The State of Israel went through three elections within a year. We have all been there, and we all know the end - a mysterious virus that threatens the stability of the world, and the urgency of forming a government that will make significant and urgent decisions.

From the day the unity government was formed, the government has been stuttering. If until May 17, Prime Minister Netanyahu led a clear and firm line in the war in Corona, with an orderly plan and difficult decisions, which while not always won the support and sympathy of the public, but ultimately proved themselves with the flattening of the curve. From the day Gantz sat in the seat next to the driver, everything started to go wrong.

Netanyahu to Gantz: Come to negotiations on a unity government

Netanyahu did not want the unity government, but agreed to it with almost no choice but to succeed and lead the people in this difficult crisis. In practice, the decisions made since then have been weak, without a consistent line, without clear thought and without an orderly plan. Chaos is created that only a single leader, with a clear and strong voice, can correct.

The unity government has led to a deep crisis in public trust in the government, and rightly so. The people managed to deal with the difficult measures, which shut down the economy for a long time and without an end date, as long as they were accepted in a sensible way.

Recently, it seems that Gantz, who was known for his lack of decision-making, and lukewarm and immature statements, has learned to use a new word - "no". Is Netanyahu proposing interim measures at the cabinet meeting to avoid closure? Gantz and Blue and White friends oppose. Netanyahu insists that the government and the Ministry of Health lead the fight against the virus? Ganz demands that the responsibility be transferred to the Ministry of Defense, as does his predecessor in the position of Naftali Bennett.

Netanyahu wants to seize the historic opportunity and apply sovereignty in Judea and Samaria before it is too late? Gantz resists, and suddenly remembers that he wants to fight Corona, even though his actions prove he is doing just the opposite, for reasons of ego and cheap politics. The saga over the Judicial Selection Committee last week, and the storm over the law banning conversion treatments this week, have also led us to a ridiculous situation where the coalition is taking on the role of the opposition, and attacking itself from within.

Netanyahu could soon lose the prime minister's office if he does not start ignoring the background noises of Ganz and a friend of his, as he did when he appointed Prof. Gamzo as corona commissioner, without consulting the deputy prime minister. The government needs to decide on an orderly plan, with clear warning signs, to fight the virus. The public will not agree to decisions that are unclear, and change twice a day because of different and justified pressures.

The virus is here to stay, and if there is no orderly plan, which includes all the health and economic aspects, in a way that allows you to lead a life alongside the virus, everything will collapse like a tower of cards. The unity government formed to fight Corona is the one that could eventually lead to a catastrophic situation, and to the deepest crisis the State of Israel has ever known.
