Two great Israelis swore allegiance to the post of prime minister yesterday and replaced him.

One of them put together this government with great effort and honestly earned it.

The second will serve as the 13th Prime Minister of the State of Israel.

Yair Lapid and Naftali Bennett are patriotic, hardworking, human and country-loving Israelis.

They do not think (and should hopefully not think either) that they are bigger than the state.

They come to their lofty role for good and I believe they will not take advantage of it.

One should pray for their success.



Their task is appallingly complex and remarkably simple, at the same time: to make a little quiet here.

Heal the wound.

Prove we can live here together.

They are not supposed to make peace or go to war, they are not supposed to carry out huge revolutions or shake up the status quo.

They should, all in all, remind us all of what and why this country was founded.

They started on the right foot: a quick glance at the ministers of this government reveals an amazing fact: many of them are suitable for the job!

More on Walla !:

  • Biden welcomed the new government: "Expects to work together to strengthen ties between countries"

  • Netanyahu: Do not silence me, I will continue the mission of my life

  • A new Israeli development prevents flatfoot pain.

    Do not believe?

    There is a free demo

Their mission: to make some quiet here.

We are in the stage of gratitude: this event would not have taken place if Gideon Saar had not decided to resign from the Likud and establish "New Hope." This was the missing piece in the puzzle, the famous penny per pound, the addition to the critical mass. Before the storm, it was Avigdor Lieberman who kicked the snowball when he retired from the Netanyahu bloc after the first date elections in 2019. Even without him, we would not have reached this point. The third is Bnei Gantz. He turned around angrily yesterday like Netanyahu, but at the end of the day the one who stopped Bibi in the 90th minute was Ganz, who ignored his promise to his constituents and decided to sit with Netanyahu because that was what was right for the country (it was also true for Netanyahu, unlike Bennett's similar move). Last but not least is Yair Lapid, the responsible adult of the event, the man who matured before our eyes, conducted himself with exemplary composure and cold determination, until he reached the desired destination. Now, just now, the real mission of all these begins.



This government was formed in sweat, tears and shouts.

Its components are complicated, sometimes conflicting, extending from the left side to the back of the right, including Arabs.

The expectations that hang in it are exaggerated.

Her abilities are limited.

One thing the ministers of this government need to do every day anew.

Get up in the morning and watch the horror performance of the inauguration yesterday in the Knesset.

To witness screams, screams, general brutality.

Thank God the chairs in the Tabernacle were not a plastic "crown."

And then the members of the new government need to listen attentively to the speech of the outgoing prime minister.

For all the lies, spins, bragging, exaggerations, humiliations, unnecessary boasting, sourness and agitation.

After reminding themselves of what they saved us from, they have to do one simple thing: the complete opposite.

To be the absolute negative of bibism.

The missing piece in the puzzle.

Such a thing was not here. True, even when the Netanyahu government was sworn in in 2015, there were protests and some MKs waved placards, but that was very far from yesterday's display of horrors. They did it all in the service of the man who loved to win, but did not know how to lose. The man the State of Israel was established to allow him to fortify his place in history. The man who managed to take several hundred followers out into the streets in recent weeks, no more. I am not sure that if he could have raised tens of thousands on the Knesset to prevent the swearing in of the new government, he would have avoided it.



Netanyahu's speech was a masterpiece of irresponsibility, shame and lack of integrity. After him, the flood. We will elegantly ignore the fact that he did not bother to turn a worthy face to his replacement, to wish him success, to reach out to him, to remind us all that we are sitting in the same boat. On the contrary, Netanyahu delivered a speech of rage. He ignored the security, political and international significance of his absurd remarks. He simply invited all the evils of Israel to enter it, to take advantage of its weakness, as it was described by him, to jump on the leadership vacuum that would prevail here as soon as His Majesty was forced to leave office.



Netanyahu is the clearest, most eloquent, most familiar and most convincing speaker the State of Israel has. Until half a minute ago, he explained to us and the world about the power of Israel, its capabilities, its strength and prosperity (which would not have come into being without him, as is well known). From the moment Bennett takes office, Netanyahu said yesterday, Israel will be weak, vulnerable, on the verge of an internal collapse, devoid of decisive ability, devoid of military capability.

In Iran, Netanyahu said, they will celebrate the change of government. Yes, he said that, and there was no one there to tell him "Hi, Mr. Prime Minister (outgoing), when you took office Iran had 30 kilos of enriched uranium, today it has close to 3 tons. When you took office Iran was a few miles away. "Years from nuclear, today it is a few months away from a bomb and a half day walk from our fence in the north. When you entered, Iran did not have the missile-ballistic capability that now threatens Israel. What are you talking about, for God's sake?"



But that's not all. In his impudence, Netanyahu announced yesterday that he doubted whether Bennett and Lapid would dare order the IDF, the Mossad and the rest of Israel to continue to act against Iran. He forgot that only a few years ago, during "Tzuk Eitan," The IDF to act against the penetrating tunnels of Hamas. He, Netanyahu, wanted to escape after the first day of fighting. He said "yes" to all the ceasefire proposals.



And that's not all: In one of the most opportunistic moves mentioned here, Netanyahu yesterday externalized the dispute with the US administration, even though he stated that he had promised Biden not to talk about it in public.

It is simply a conflict, openly, between the US administration entering Washington, and the Israeli administration entering Jerusalem.

Shamelessly, in broad daylight, in front of the cameras and microphones he burned the bridges that Bennett and Lapid will have to build now with Washington because unfortunately it is not we who elect the president in America, but the Americans.

Some of these bridges Netanyahu himself burned back in 2015, when he spat in the face of the Democratic Party in that speech to Congress.

Now he has come to complete the craft.

As if there is no country after him here.

To the full article

This morning is not the dawn of a new day.

It is a morning of hard work, sometimes Sisyphean, aimed at repairing the rubble.

Netanyahu and Hibbism were not defeated by the left or the right, but by sanity, or at least the longing for sanity.

The desire of many Israelis to live here quietly, without incitement, without hatred and especially without the endless lie that Netanyahu's legacy has instilled in us.

Government members should get up this morning, watch Netanyahu's speech and go to work.

Thus, every morning anew.

Store the ego, give up the etiquette, not think about the honor or the "base" or the appointments or the temporary refreshments and coupons.

Think of the country, and of it alone.

There has long been no such government here.
