Opinion | The return of GSS personnel reveals the extreme hypocrisy that characterizes the current government | Israel Today

2021-11-28T20:23:36.202Z


Senior government officials were furious at the previous government that operated the GSS during a global catastrophe • Today, the ministers decided to monitor civilians, only because isolated cases of an unknown strain were discovered • Need for local integrity lost


"Instead of the GSS locating method, which sends hundreds of thousands of people into frustrating false isolations, I would connect the epidemiological investigations to the people's walking route" (Naftali Bennett, September 22, 2020).

"This government is taking advantage of the corona crisis to produce government offices that no one needs, for budgets for all members, is taking advantage of it to bring down laws it does not like, and now it is taking advantage of it to run a tool that even the GSS does not want to use.

There are excellent civic tools, and instead they expose GSS working methods, burden the GSS and undermine the most basic democratic procedures of the state ”(Yair Lapid, June 24, 2020).

"Monitoring, locating and monitoring citizens, using databases and sophisticated technological means, can severely infringe on privacy and basic civil liberties. Therefore, these measures are prohibited in democracies. Proper supervision "(current Minister of Health, Nitzan Horowitz).

"I strongly oppose the use of a tool to counter terrorism against civilians. In all the discussions in the Foreign Affairs and Defense Committee in which I participated, I expressed my firm opposition and voted against" (Minister of Economy today, Orna Barbibai, February 2021).

"The GSS Icons Law is not something that should happen in a democratic state" (Meirav Michaeli). "We have reduced the GSS Icons" (Bnei Gantz, June 2020).

What did you not say against Netanyahu's use of the GSS's, with the outbreak of the corona? How much foam did you spit? How much anger did you spray? You claimed that he was using the GSS to deny democratic rights, to perpetuate his rule, to shut up.

Backed by propagandistic media, you are deceiving the people, under the false pretext of using the corona for politics.

You did it while the truth was reversed.

You are the ones who rode the corona (and the crumbling court) to overthrow it and conquer power.

Because here, a few months have passed, and not only are you doing everything he did and you promised to avoid him, but you are bypassing him in a big way.

Netanyahu activated the GSS during a global catastrophe when there was no information, no tools and no vaccines. Individuals of an unfamiliar strain.What happened? What were you scared of?

Although there are vaccines - Bibi brought them, as you remember - but you have no influence on the people and therefore you do not convince him to get vaccinated.

There are also other, civilian tools, as Communications Minister Yoaz Handel said yesterday, "Communications companies, Google, social networks, apps, all know where we are exactly 10 digits away."

But you have no respect for your own word, so you do not turn to the "other tools" you have advocated from the opposition.

Instead, as you have grossly trampled on everything you promised the public for years - that you avoid coalition money, that you do not appoint associates, that you do not overthrow the opposition, that your government is small, that you are not private with a "reserve prime minister", that you do not sit with each other, Supposedly one right and one left, and do not use GSS idiots - so, you are again acting in complete contradiction to your statements.

Half a year the place of government, the picture does not change.

Zero reliability, one hundred percent hypocrisy.

Were we wrong?

Fixed!
