Economic Crisis, Security Challenge: This is What the Torch Priesthood Will Look Like | Israel today

Yair Lapid's entry into the Prime Minister's Office next week will complete one of the long-term political projects ever seen in Israel.

At least since serving as a Friday studio presenter, at the beginning of the previous decade, Lapid acted like a goal-oriented missile - to reach the Prime Minister's Office. The most important thing in Israel will be Lapid, who is politically cooked and politically skilled.

Prime is already one level beyond.

Lapid will be required to lead a security line and formulate an economic line, thus making his big test.

"We have been running together in the trenches since 2012," Lapid once defined the connection between him and Bennett, and the two did cover each other for the other's shortcomings.

Torch is more representative and probably more politically skilled.

Bennett understands better with confidence and reads a political map better.

If his partner retires, it can be assumed that Torch will have a hard time dealing with these parts of the role.

Even in such an economy, Lapid does not understand like Bennett, as he testified.

His colleague Shaked even once said that Lapid had carried out "terrorist attacks" in the first months of his tenure as foreign minister.

Now his big challenge is underway.

Were we wrong?

Fixed!
