Last night (Saturday), Minister of Internal Security Amir Ohana attacked the participants in the "holiday meal" in front of the prime minister's residence in Jerusalem and called the demonstrators a "bunch of spoiled privileges." 

"What happened last night is a disgrace. The group of spoiled privileges are sitting to hold a mass feast on the streets of Jerusalem unhindered, sure that everything is due to them because they are above the law - fatally damaging the national effort to spread the corona virus," Ohana wrote on Facebook. 

"It endangers the lives of all of us, and all of this would not have happened without the backlash of the Attorney General and his people. It is a spit in the face of millions of law-abiding Israelis. I demanded that the senior police command put an end to the disgrace. The virus loves crowds - this is the main cause of the disease. Thus there is a general consensus of all the experts.It is also not so much interested in politics, or in the legal system, or in matters of religion and state.

"'But the demonstrations are against you so you want to silence them.'"

Some megalomania.

Anyone who thinks that these demonstrations are harming us (the Likud) politically - will answer the following question: Are there many Israelis who were convinced by something that they saw the one with the pot on her head rattling in her brain, or the one who looted the emblem of the State of Israel, killed by soldiers and spread it? ?

"This group, and especially its hard and violent nucleus, poses a political threat to us more or less as a benign autumn poses a political threat. 'But there is no morbidity in the demonstrations.'"

Which of you are more experts than the director general of the Ministry of Health, Prof. Hezi Levy, or the director of Assuta, Prof. Shuki Shemer, who calls them corona incubators, or the corona projector, Prof. Roni Gamzo, who says that this cannot continue?

Does it seem to anyone that she with the pot on her head, or the one who looted the state emblem, or the pampered privileges who spat on the eve of the holiday in the face of millions of law-abiding Israelis at the feast they made, threaten us politically?

Wake up.

We are here in the war - with over ten dead every day - only together we will win (later Nariv) >>> https://t.co/DNm3yVjzso pic.twitter.com/XCXXeVgR2V

"Note: In the epidemiological investigation conducted on a person infected with corona, he does not know whether he is infected in the gym, at work, at school, in a restaurant, at a demonstration, or on public transportation on the way there. He just does not know where he is infected. Or anywhere else.

"What is there? The experts, common sense, and common sense - as everyone says - the virus is spread in demonstrations (thousands of people huddle without a distance between them, often without a mask, shouting, beeping, it really seems to someone there is no infection?).

"But I said 'fatal blow' to the struggle in Corona not only because of this, but because millions of Israelis see this disgrace, and are not willing to have one law for privileges and another law for everyone. If you can have a feast in Balfour - then you can also pray in this synagogue and have a mass wedding in the village That - and basically doing everything others are allowed to do.Many of us see this disgrace and are a little sorry we left our parents alone on the eve of the holiday, and kept the law.

"To those I want to say, that despite the understanding of their feelings (inequality is jarring and hard to digest) - the defiance and sophistication measures are out of place. You are not punishing this gang. You are punishing our grandparents. Our parents. The whole country. Wake up! We are at war, And it's not a political war. It's a war that kills more than ten of us every day, and it's getting worse. We have always known, as a people, to put disputes aside in times of emergency.

"Like missiles, tanks and enemy planes, the virus does not differentiate between right-wingers and left-wingers, between Netanyahu's supporters and his opponents. I criticized the police command that did not prevent this disgrace, but it must be said openly and honestly: The law for the government and its people, including the disciplined justice minister he procured for himself - it would not happen. There was one law for everyone. As it should be. Do not be tempted to break or get smart with the guidelines. Take care of yourself, take care of your parents, take care of our future - and together - we will win. May we all have a good and healthy year. "

About 200 demonstrators from the "Black Flags" and "Pink Front" organizations gathered at Frishman Beach in Tel Aviv yesterday afternoon and demonstrated against Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and the closure.

The protesters did not maintain social distance and many of them did not wear masks.

Some even went into the water in violation of quarantine regulations.

However, the "Black Flags" organization stated that it "calls on all citizens of the country to act in accordance with the law and the instructions of the Corona, in demonstrations as always: to maintain social distance and wear masks at all times. The events from today and last night were not on our behalf."

As you may recall, the outline of the government demonstrations was published on Tuesday, according to which the number of demonstrators will not be limited, but the demonstrations will be held in capsules of 20 people while maintaining distance.
