In your possession, guided imagery: you are sitting comfortably in the apartment, suddenly there are knocks on the door.
Police officers at the door, and without unnecessary introductions, they enter your home and search for "dangerous substances."
They turn over the house, open drawers, rummage through your most personal belongings, and all this when you have no idea what they are looking for, but you know two things: a.
You do not possess "hazardous materials", b.
They are allowed.
A new "search law" allows a police officer to enter your home without a judge's order.
We will continue with the visualization: the policemen leave an inverted apartment empty-handed. All you have to do is unload an angry post on the networks. Describe an Orwellian experience, express immense anger at the submitter of the law, and along the way also utter a beautiful curse. Whatever. The post succeeds, the shares skyrocket, and a missing hand deletes the post, which has disappeared from the face of the earth. Next a policeman rings, who warns and asks to "stop the incitement or take action".
Fake hysteria? Science Fiction? Wake up. Reality: In a preliminary reading this week, two laws were passed that will immediately confirm all of the above - Saar's "search law" will give a police officer the authority to enter and search a place without an order, if there is a reasonable suspicion that there is an object that could serve as evidence of a serious offense; Of Meir Yitzhak Halevi states that a judge with the appropriate certification will be allowed to issue an order to the advertiser to remove content from the network. "I do not cross borders on the net and do not hide dangerous material", should internalize that everything you have written or done is at the discretion of the police officer and the judges. And they, how to hint gently? Not exactly on your side.
The fact that behind the laws stands a new party of hope should come as no surprise. An unpopular minister, who was frequently hit on networks and had to deal with mentioning questions about a dubious past and a health minister denying vaccines, was expected to try to hide criticism and questions. Thus it was revealed that Shasha Bitton herself did to elements in the education system, not to mention the cannabis supporters who sent Sharan Hashakel to the Knesset only to see her vote in favor of a law that would contribute to their persecution. One does not have to be a genius to understand that censorship law is directed against right-wingers, since only they incite in networks. This, of course, is in contrast to the deep and respectful discourse on the left, which always adheres to proper language and a culture of discussion.
Had Netanyahu or Smutrich passed laws that even came close to the above, the ground would have shaken - and rightly so. But they also know that for more than a decade the right has not even come close to passing one such law. It took the "warriors in the dictatorship" half a year to pass two.
To sum up simply: the laws of new hope are an anti-democratic and violent disgrace, under hypocritical and false cover for public peace.
Cosmetic plasters made by the left-wing government, plus two parties that smear the blocking percentage from below, designed to sow fear and reduce criticism.
Well, Mr. Saar, Meir Halevi and all the friends who voted for: It will not work for you.
Were we wrong?
Fixed!
