The government of violated promises fulfills one major promise - silence

In the first 100 days of the Bennett-Lapid government, the right-wing partners are getting used to compromises and restraints and hiding past statements, for the common goal - stability.

Opposition leader Netanyahu also plays a key role in representing the coalition: the prevailing assessment is that as long as he is in the region, it will be very difficult to get it to disband.

Traditionally, the first hundred days of a leader are considered a period of grace, in which he is carried on top of the popularity and victory in elections, which give him credit for decisions that change reality and breakthroughs. This is not the case with Naftali Bennett, who started in advance as a not very popular prime minister, from a minority party, and the first in history who did not come from one of the two major parties in the Knesset. According to tradition, in the first hundred days it is possible to examine the commitment of the new government to fulfill and promote the promises of the campaign. In the case of the government of change, which was originally formed on the basis of broken promises, it is a little more complex.

Bennett repeatedly declared allegiance to the right and pledged not to sit with RAAM and the left, while Yair Lapid built a career on the slogans of new and different politics. Their unity government forced them and their partners to swallow some archival footage with past commitments. They became 28 in reality, with the addition of deputy ministers and a record number of resignations under Norwegian law, which burdens tens of millions of shekels in the state coffers. Dozens more political appointments of people close to jobs in offices and authorities have already been launched.

The right-wing coalition is hiding past statements about the evacuation of Khan al-Ahmar and restraining the strengthening of relations with the Palestinian Authority, the leftists are quietly missing out on regulating outposts and building permits in the settlements, and the US Until the election, everyone hopes and believes, the deeds and achievements will forget the broken promises, thanks to which the government was formed and which give it stability and quiet.

Quiet is the main promise that the government manages to keep in the meantime, and the transfer of the budget, which will also ensure stability for at least two years, will be marked as another significant achievement, when it comes. Government meetings are held weekly as an orderly, and the political-security cabinet convenes regularly that it has not known for years. In the various forums there are long disagreements and debates, but the tones are low and calm, and the crises are usually resolved in friendship, rather than in explosions in the media. The prime ministers praise the matter of factuality and normalcy, which has returned to decision-making, and the prime minister is proud of the compromises that resolve the disputes from within and get the country back on track.

After 12 years of a love-hate relationship between a prime minister and the cameras and microphones that gave him complete control of the agenda, Bennett's media profile is far less flashy and prominent. Whole days can pass without his name being mentioned at the beginning of the editions. By virtue of his limited power, he runs the coalition like a cooperative, and the atmosphere among the controlling shareholders is overall good and positive. Lapid, the alternate prime minister, publicly renounces his replacement and lets his partner establish (or perhaps defeat?) As the one who steers the ship, but behind the scenes is busy running their joint government, hoping it will last until August 2023 and bring him to the red phone as well.

To date, the government's privacy mechanism, which gives the right and left a veto over every move, has not been activated even once.

The most pressing issues are resolved by Bennett and Lapid among themselves, and with the relevant defense minister or ministers, and they give up painful votes that could embarrass either side.

This is how the evacuation plan in Eviatar was formulated in early July, this is how Ganz's trip to Ramallah, for the first official meeting with Abu Mazen in ten years, was prepared, and so it was decided to request a further postponement of the evacuation in Khan al-Ahmar.

They all came to the cabinet only in retrospect, and passed, casually, quite quietly.

Finance Minister Avigdor Lieberman, who was once Bennett's sworn enemy, now plays a key role in fulfilling his promise of stability and calm. Lieberman, who along with the Finance Committee holds unprecedented control over the state coffers, has so far managed the budget events calmly and resolutely and even generously, and has generously opened the budget pockets to the budgetary requirements of ministers and MKs to ensure his smooth approval. The coalition, he gave VIP treatment - in addition to increasing the defense budget, he led the approval of the IDF pension scheme, despite widespread opposition from the professional echelon in his office.

The tiny majority in the coalition, on the edge of a vote, gives each member a huge power and requires a great deal of ongoing maintenance, and all party leaders give their share for the common cause.

After the crushing defeat on the Citizenship Act and the Cannabis Act, they ended their first summer session with first-reading budget approval celebrations.

But as time goes on, the ideological gaps rise and float at times, and the clashes between right-wingers and the Labor Party and Meretz increase.

Under the coalition silence, suspicions against Ganz and the offers of seduction from the Likud are constantly burning.

The continuing tension on the Gaza Strip border presents the security reality, in which every day a crisis can break out that could undermine their seats and the foundations of the partnership with the RAAM.

Reconciliation begins within us - and remains there

The spirit of unity and reconciliation of the Bennett-Lapid government has so far failed to dismantle the walls of "just not Bibi." Polls from the government signal that the public is divided 50:50 on its function and performance, and that if the election had been held today, the coalition would have received more or less the same median electoral power it represents today. Supporters of the government, who wish to replace Netanyahu at all costs, are willing to forgive the dead in Corona, the balloons from Gaza, the political status quo and even Bennett's embarrassing phone call with Barel Hadaria Shmueli's father - his biggest political mishap to date. Its opponents, the Bibists, the rightists and the ultra-Orthodox, see everything the government does as a failure that heralds the loss of deterrence or a sign of the end of history.

Reconciliation does not seep from the walls of the government to the Knesset benches, where the opposition has been waging a bitter campaign in the new government for the past hundred days. Opposition leader Benjamin Netanyahu has so far not met with the prime minister, who replaced him for the monthly update required by law. The center of the opposition, an associate of Yariv Levin, is leading a belligerent and stubborn line in front of the coalition in an endless debate over the composition and representation on committees, which disrupts and paralyzes parliamentary work. At one point, the nocturnal energies of the Philistines at the beginning of the journey were exhausted - and converted into a boycott, which should leave the coalition to hold one-sided discussions. It also has cracks, by the way.

The evasion of the protocol with Bennett and the conduct in the Knesset indicate a special effort on Netanyahu's part not to recognize the upheaval.

More than he entered the post of opposition leader, he remained in the atmosphere of the election campaign, with live broadcasts on Facebook in which he fired constant messages against the Bennett-Lapid government, its abandonment of security and the corona, and the hot etrog it received from the media.

Thus, he preserves the hope of his supporters and supporters that the Bennett-Lapid government is temporary, and he will soon lead them back to power.

But Netanyahu's role as head of the opposition has a built-in paradox: whoever is supposed to act to overthrow the government plays a crucial role in stabilizing it and in its efforts to achieve peace.

Opposition to him connected the coalition in the first place, and holds it together now.

As long as it is in the area, so it is widely believed that almost no frog will be able to cause it to disintegrate.
