Opinion | In the face of the failure of the government, the national camp should present vision and hope Israel today

One hundred days to form the government of Bennett and the left, its balance - and therefore ours - at a huge loss.

The profit column is almost empty.

No improvement was recorded in any area.

Not in personal or national security, not in governance, not in political power, not even in the economy.

On the other hand, the column of losses is full.

Let's start with reliability. The Israeli government is headed by a man who, unfortunately, cannot believe a single word. These are not only the election promises that turned to ashes and dust, but also countless statements he made after taking office: that he took over the corona, that closed the gap at Ben Gurion Airport, that he stopped the balloon terror, that he set a new equation with Hamas, and more. Fever. Even before we talked about being the head of a party with only six seats, a member of the far left and a pro-terror party, which enjoyed a tiny majority in the Knesset and thus shook the foundations of democracy and Zionism - an unprecedented slump in the Israeli prime minister's position.

What, after all, is on the right side?

After a two-year political crisis, Israel has a functioning government, ministers with authority who outline policies, a state budget that is expected to pass, and a spur from Bennett to all concerned, to work.

Definitely something too.

The trouble is, in the words of Bnei Gantz, that "what has changed is only the headlines in the newspapers."

Because with the exception of a few issues, such as the reforms of providing Kahana and directing budgets to the Golan, "change and healing" are felt in the media that supports this government.

Not in the policy itself.

Continue the reactive and non-deterrent policy.

There is a deterioration in law enforcement with the escape of the six terrorists, and precedent-setting attacks by a police chief and a Knesset member.

Justice Minister Gideon Saar's promises to reform the judiciary, including the split of the Attorney General, have evaporated.

The corona condition is terrible, with record numbers of critically ill patients, with no restrictions but also no tests - making the public helpless.

Doctors are forced to choose between saving the lives of the elderly or young.

Israel is deteriorating by all international indices.

That's not how you beat an epidemic, that's how people lose.

And how is the health care system?

In Netanyahu's 12 years, we have heard countless predictions about the collapse of hospitals.

They did collapse and close their gates, but on the watch of the current government.

In economics, Lieberman gave every minister and every party what they wanted, and many of the reforms were abolished or reduced.

Lapid, Michaeli, Horowitz and Lieberman himself came out in a froth against Netanyahu's biennial budgets, arguing that they were intended for his political survival and not for the economy.

They accused him of buying governmental stability with money.

And lo and behold, they are now acting exactly like him, literally one by one.

This is in fact the central nature of government.

In almost every field, its leaders and comrades imitate Netanyahu's methods, which they attacked in a frothy froth.

They do not improve the situation vis-à-vis Gaza, they do not deal with governance, they do not respond to the nationalist threat among Israeli Arabs.

The government is large, pristine, buys power with money and honors, is based on a lie - with intensities that Netanyahu did not have - and a freeze on Shmarya.

The hospitals collapsed and closed their gates, in the shift of the current government.

Suddenly all this is no longer problematic.

According to Lapid, a huge parity government is not a paralysis government.

Avigdor Lieberman does not call Lapid a "reserve prime minister."

Why?

Because the battle was and still is only about power and motivated by personal insults against Netanyahu.

Oh yes, and there is of course Khan al-Ahmar - the refined example of government hypocrisy.

This insult also radiates out, which is the most worrying part.

Bennett, Lapid, Saar, Lieberman and the rest of the partners are transferring indirect funding to terrorist salaries - like Netanyahu.

Against Hamas, they continue the reactive and non-deterrent policy.

There is no answer to Hezbollah.

In the face of a wave of disturbances among Israeli Arabs, the commissioner and the minister are confusing the mind about equality issues. Instead of setting red lines, and saving the sector from itself, and us from it, the government is pouring more money on it to fuel the violence.

In the background is Iran, which is getting closer to the moment of the break-in and has not had a better fitness hour.

The United States is beaten and bruised after Afghanistan. China and Russia are happy about the opportunity to tail America. And Israel, in its current state, is not exactly threatening.

In the Middle East, weakness invites aggression, and if in Netanyahu's our deterrence has eroded, all the more so now.

We face threats from home and abroad, about the existence of the Jewish state in the Land of Israel.

The doomsday scenario of an Iranian nuclear strike, an inevitable Israeli attack, and counter-reactions by Iran itself, Syria, Hezbollah, Hamas and Israeli Arabs, who together will flood the country with flames we have never seen before - is behind the door.

All the lights are flashing, and with us both the political and professional echelons do not want to see.

But not only the government is blind but also the opposition.

Perhaps because of the shock of the loss of power, in their century, Netanyahu and the rest of the right-wing leaders forgot that politics is not a program as you request, but an art of the possible.

They act like a child lying on the floor and kicking her nervously.

Too many in the Likud and the satellite parties, incite the divisions and the politics of identities that lead nowhere.

It's time to stop it. Hatred does not build anything, but eats the house on its occupants. In its place, precisely in the face of the failure of the government, the responsible national camp, vision and hope should be presented. The Knesset and the people have a huge majority on the right. Even after Yom Kippur, its leaders will do the required mental arithmetic and take actions that will fulfill the will of the voter. This is the way to get the country back on track.
