Opinion | New agreement needed: Anti-Zionist parties must not be relied on Israel today

2022-05-10T20:41:04.206Z


The dependence of the two political camps on anti-Zionist parties turns out to be utter madness and a threat to the Jewish and Zionist character of the state.


It is no longer a matter of right and left, coalition or opposition:

our train is derailed.

The dependence and continued reliance - of the two political camps - on anti-Zionist parties that openly undermine the existence of the State of Israel as a Jewish state were insane in the first place, and these days they are manifesting as utter madness and a threat to the Zionist and Jewish character of the state.

Everyone is guilty of this, even those who want to rely on such MKs - some of them supporters of terrorism - to carry out their government, and also those who want to overthrow the government through those MKs.

Some of them, to remind you, went to Acre a year ago to identify with the rioters who burned and murdered and carried out lynching of Jews there, and one (Ahmad Tibi) even previously served as an adviser to the murderer Yasser Arafat.

The problem, it will be emphasized, is not in relying on Arab MKs, but in relying on MKs who identify with our most obvious enemies.

The fact that we have so quickly become accustomed to this dependence and that it is gaining legitimacy, is a terrible certificate of poverty for all of us.

Only a year and a half ago, such conduct by Zionist parties was unbelievable and unthinkable.

Most of us would classify it on the continuum between a wild imagination and a vague idea.

Entire pages can be filled with texts and promises from Bennett and Netanyahu that they will never rely on such parties - but both have broken their vows.

Netanyahu when he tried to form a government and courted in daylight after Mansour Abbas and his friends, the "Muslim Brotherhood" Israel branch, and Bennett - who got on the road that Netanyahu paved for him and broke through the gate.

This change, more than it indicates the unchanged Arab Zionist parties, indicates us.

The changing Zionist camp is now ready to compromise on its basic values ​​- and to harness anti-Zionist carriages to the Zionist locomotive as well;

Those who openly undermine the existence of the State of Israel as the state of the Jewish people.

These carriages derail the Zionist train.

This is happening on the Temple Mount, and in the Negev and in the priorities for budgeting various projects and in government arrangements.

On the fringes, they also affect Israel's foreign and security policy.

And this is just the beginning.

As the dependence on these parties and their members, for any political purpose — formation, existence, or overthrow of the government — increases, their anti-Zionist appetite will only increase and this trend will deepen.

A new consensus is needed, therefore, that will favor the Jewish-Zionist unity, over the party camp, with the victory over the rival political camp at the forefront.

Whoever continues to sanctify the government, or the overthrow of the government at any cost - even at the cost of dependence on significant anti-Zionist elements, who often identify with the enemies of the state - will sooner or later bring an end to the Zionist dream and the reality of all its citizens. The State of Israel as a Jewish-Zionist state.

The position of power and language of the scales in which MKs who would have preferred the State of Israel not to establish itself at the moment are catastrophic. The only way to deal with this reality is to break the existing paradigm and political alliances, The enemies of Zionism.

Were we wrong?

Fixed!
