Where will Yair?

And the most energetic campaigner in the country does the work for him

He is the most present absentee of the fourth election campaign: Netanyahu attacks him every night, Bennett and Saar go after him - but the chairman has a future that does not make a sound and tries to avoid statements. And strengthens in polls

Benjamin Netanyahu's favorite game these days is "Where will Yair?".

The name of the chairman has a future mentioned dozens of times in every media interview, political conference, viral video or Likud message page. "Has anyone seen Yair Lapid?", Is also part of the regular number in the daily show that Netanyahu launched this week at conferences in Likud cities across the country. The answer, repeated every evening in the narrative tone of the boy's weekly painting, is that Lapid hides because he does not want them to know he is running for prime minister, with Naftali Bennett and Gideon Saar, along with the media, helping him to vote for the left and prevent the right.

Netanyahu gave this show this week in Jerusalem, Petah Tikva and Ramat Gan and he plans to raise at least 30 more in the two and a half weeks left until the election, in a field campaign designed to wake the Likudniks from their lair.In a remarkably precise timing, the last phase In the meantime, only the Likud is using it, and the other parties are moving away from physical gatherings and focusing on zoom activities. Yesterday, at the end of the conference in Ramat Gan, Netanyahu said he intends to hold four to six conferences a day, or at least 30, each. Up to 300 participants, so at least 9

Strives not to raise the flames.

Bennett and Saar prepared in advance for this show, which is designed to crowd the ranks on the right and bring home four to three seats that have left since the last election.

While Netanyahu shouts Lapid, Lapid, Lapid, they go out of their way to make it clear that for them he is almost a persona non grata, and that he is really, really not going to be the next prime minister - but them.

This week, when a new hope candidate, Danny Dayan, deviated from the line and said in an interview that if Lapid received the mandate to form the government, they sat down with him for negotiations, he hurried to make it clear in a Twitter tweet that this was a theoretical "polite" statement. Inappropriate, inappropriate, unable and even ineligible to serve as Prime Minister of Israel.

A abstinent strategy

One thing Netanyahu is right about: Lapid is the most absentee present in the fourth election campaign.

Everyone is on his head: the Likud is targeting him, Bennett and Saar are questioning his qualifications and abilities, the heads talking in the studios are praising his chances of getting to Balfour Street, Ganz will probably recommend Saar - and even Lieberman released a video against Yesh Atid this week.

And he - does not make a sound.

He does not respond to any attack in response, is not dragged into any battle and is wary of media traps.

Even with the ultra-Orthodox, he tries not to raise the flames.

Thus, while Saar and Bennett run from studio to studio declaring that they are the only ones who can replace Netanyahu, Lapid pursues a particularly stingy interview policy, deliberately not releasing big statements about his plans.

While Saar and Bennett appear on billboards on the country's roads, Bish Atid settles for flags on the bridges with the neutral campaign slogan "Sane Government", with an orange logo - and without mentioning the candidate to head it.

On the ballot paper, too, he is not defined as a candidate for prime minister, while Netanyahu and Saar chose to add the target title and will mention it until the last minute in the screen.

Fixed number.

Before closing the sky, Lapid spent three days in the United States with his American strategic adviser, Mark Melman.

This is where the hidden / abstaining strategy was founded, which receives a lot of criticism, but turns out to be effective.

He moved away from the swamp, recognized some general desire in the public for quiet, and meanwhile, the vigorous campaigner of "Where to Yair" did the work for him.

In recent weeks, there is a future that is gradually and steadily strengthening, and yesterday in the poll here 11 crossed the 20-seat threshold.

It is still not enough to make him a great enemy who threatens the right-wing government on the left, but as the trend continues and he opens a gaping gap and Bennett - the "combine" that brings him to the prime minister Netanyahu describes in the Likud show will be more credible and realistic.

If Lapid has a substantial advantage - and more seats than his two rivals combined - it would be illegitimate not to recognize him as a contender for the crown.

Even if Netanyahu does not have 61, and Bennett and Saar join the right-wing bloc after the election, Lapid will be able to mobilize Yisrael Beiteinu and the Labor Party behind him, and the battle of recommendations will get more complicated.

Prepare in advance for the show.

Netanyahu's daily teasing does not throw Lapid out of balance and even the attacks of Saar and Bennett did not cause him to break the silence. Unlike Netanyahu, who is only looking to eat the right-wing seats around him, Lapid has no safe space to enter from it into a head-to-head battle that will create a drift of the bloc's votes in his direction. It is surrounded by a variety of small parties in the center-left that hover in the blocking percentage area - Meretz, Blue and White, and also the Labor Party - and any strengthening of it can increase the danger. It will be great for Netanyahu if one of them does not move, but for a camp that opposes him much less.

Lapid did not give up on the dream of becoming prime minister, but he knows that the way there is first and foremost in forming a stable and large bloc that will replace Netanyahu. Two to three more seats will not guarantee Lapid entry into Balfour, but any small party that does not pass the blocking percentage will improve the chances that Netanyahu will stay there and wreak havoc on his camp. And for that reason too, apparently, he chooses to be silent and absorb and not attack back, until a decision is made in the last round.
