Opinion | The unwise attacks of the left on the Bnei Gantz Israel today

In recent days, the public has been exposed to only a small part of the animosity between the prime ministers of change and healing.


A lot of animosity flows between the prime ministers of change and healing.

In recent days the public has been exposed to only the small part.

Yesterday, for example, Labor and Meretz leaders attacked Defense Minister Ganz, following the decision to promote the construction of 3,144 new homes throughout Judea and Samaria.

But the one who promoted the decision was Prime Minister Bennett, who in an emergency move together with Finance Minister Lieberman, settled the labor dispute in the Civil Administration yesterday and thus made the decision possible.

Ganz in general is on a sensitive visit abroad.

When winking at left-wing voters, Meretz and Labor leaders did not miss an opportunity to punch a political opponent.

These attacks came when the previous round was not even over.

Earlier this week, the same parties complained to the defense minister that he had called terrorist organizations by his explicit name, "terrorist organizations."

Read and not believe.

Ganz, according to Merav Michaeli and Nitzan Horowitz, is accused of lacking coordination with the United States - even though there was such coordination. But they will not miss an opportunity to put in a political opponent, as if the election is waiting around the corner.

At this point lies the peak of folly of the attacks within the left camp.


Ganz is the weakest link in this government.

What will you gain from Merav Michaeli from pushing him into a corner, to the point of unpacking the package?

Or is Nitzan Horowitz so sure that after a fifth election, a political miracle will once again befall him and he will serve as a minister?

The political wisdom here is not clear.

As if the self-destructive instinct of the left has resurfaced, and Gantz is the victim.

Beyond the political chaos caused by the two events, the construction in Judea and Samaria and the declaration of the six terrorist organizations mark the boundaries of Foreign Minister Lapid's embracing and chapping policy.

This is not a political crisis, but certainly a friction with Europe.

When the government began its journey, and Lapid went on a precedent-setting visit to the European Union, he spoke of a new page in relations with the continent, and in particular with Western countries.

In his view, Israel should embrace liberal democracies and stay away from conservative Eastern countries.

Lapid also believed that discourse and information would solve at least some of the problems.

In the first test this policy has not been proven.

Israel has explained well and prematurely to European countries why it defines the six rights organizations as terrorist organizations.

But this did not prevent a defiant meeting of the EU ambassador in Ramallah with representatives of the six organizations nor a French condemnation of the move.

There was no disaster, but there is a lesson.

It is desirable that the Minister of Foreign Affairs and the ministry he heads re-examine the policy of relying on Western Europe.

The big tests are still ahead of us.
