But the flames in the capital may challenge the partnership with the Arabs, and play into Netanyahu's hands.

To succeed and meet the schedule, Lapid and Bennett will have to isolate themselves from the erupting headlines.

The headlines about the first round of coalition talks between Yesh Atid chairman Yair Lapid and right-wing chairman Naftali Bennett changed over the weekend to escalating headlines about violence on the Temple Mount, and reports of meetings gave way to reports of security assessments.



Opponents of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu are already raising suspicions and suspicions of an initiated escalation, designed to disrupt efforts to form a unity government, but even if not so far away - the arson in Jerusalem threatens to disrupt Lapid and Bennett's plans, or at least postpone the agile schedules . It floods the surface with everything their joint project would rather forget, and fuels the national, nationalist and religious feelings that divide and divide the Israeli public among its many tribes.



The Bennett-Lapid government is supposed to have seven parties, from the right wing of Gideon Saar, Zeev Elkin and Ayelet Shaked to the far left, of Nitzan Horowitz, Yair Golan and Abtissam Maraana.

On the one hand, the initiators of the tours of the schools in Hebron and the architects of the regulation law, and on the other hand, process identifiers, supporters of breaking the silence, and perpetuators of the Nakba.

If they were not united in their desire to replace Netanyahu, the chances of them finding themselves in the same coalition would be minimal to nil, but for that matter, they decided to put aside the ideological gaps and try to form a joint government.

As long as the Palestinian issue is dormant and does not burn the streets and headlines, they can focus on economic and social issues and declare a healing government from Netanyahu and the Koruna. But as the flames rise in Jerusalem, they may be dragged into the deepest ideological controversies out of necessity.



Beyond the Jewish wars, the escalation may challenge the attempt to reach understandings and agreements with the Arab MKs, without whom the Lapid-Bennett government would not succeed in its first vote. Especially when the focus is on Jerusalem and the Temple Mount, and what is happening is everywhere in the Arab world. The Arab-Israeli sector joins the protest and strengthens it. When the focus of the conflict is religious and the battle is on al-Aqsa, even the Likud's darling and right-wing rabbis, RAAM chairman Mansour Abbas, cannot remain silent. At the weekend he said it was a "red line." .



Because of Netanyahu's kosher character, Abbas is also Bennett's preferred partner, and Raam's four fingers are part of his plan to form a government. But tensions in Jerusalem could put Abbas' strategy in a difficult test. Lapid would have preferred the joint leaders, Ayman Odeh and Ahmad Tibi. , Who participate in demonstrations in Sheikh Jarrah and lead the political struggle against police violence in demonstrations.

A Twitter confrontation has already broken out between Lapid and Odeh: Lapid tweeted that "this is a time for responsibility on the part of everyone, especially elected officials," and Odeh replied: "This is really the time for responsibility, but responsibility begins He will do good to both nations. " At the beginning of an explosive and sensitive week in Jerusalem, as conflicts escalate and protests expand, the public atmosphere, among Jews and Arabs alike, may make it difficult for them to discuss cooperation.



Lapid and Bennett planned to hold accelerated negotiations and already this week to sign coalition agreements and bring the government to a vote. On Friday, they did a kind of speed-dating with the five heads of the parties that are supposed to be members of the coalition - Gideon Saar, Bnei Gantz, Merav Michaeli and Nitzan Horowitz. Today, Bennett is expected to meet with Abbas, and Lapid plans to meet with Odeh and Tibi. To stand alone in the tough line, the two will have to isolate themselves from the exploding headlines and be goal-oriented.



The working assumption of the thinkers of the chariot of the Bennett-Lapid government was that the Palestinian issue was frozen, irrelevant and would not require difficult decisions.

The escalation in Jerusalem is undermining it even before the signing phase, and is already putting its partners to the first significant test.

In light of the aggressive campaign that the Likud is planning to do to right-wingers to deter them from entering the government, this may not be an easy task.

Whether Netanyahu incites the situation with Amir Ohana's police or not, the escalation is in his hands.

In the first weekend after the loss of the mandate, with the danger over the continuation of his rule more tangible than ever, he continued to show a presence as prime minister, with security assessments and political attempts to calm the area.

The tense agenda not only raises difficulties for the effort of his opponents, but also allows him to demonstrate a routine of everything as usual.
