Opinion On the way to a tyrannical minority government? | Israel today

Coordination between the Chiefs of Staff and Sa'ar party and Lapid, Labor and Meretz is evident: Lapid takes in refugees from Sa'ar's list, accepts Eizenkot's preference to join Gantz and mediates between Meretz and Labor


Recently, there have been increasing political signs that the group of center-left parties is preparing to overthrow anti-democratic regimes, if, as they hope, the Likud fails to form a government after the November elections.

Their only hope is a draw in the elections, through the continued boycott of Likud.

Therefore, one should not rule out the obvious possibility that a blocking bloc - if it does succeed in blocking Netanyahu with the help of 61 fingers in the Knesset - will be transformed in one way or another into a bloc in order to establish a system of government more convenient for the center-left parties, under the false argument that it stabilizes the regime.

They will propose to the Arab parties, as organizations close to them with Orwellian names such as the Israel Democracy Institute and the Center for Citizen Empowerment have recently proposed, to "free" the government from its subordination to the Knesset.

Since there is no majority for any of the parties elected to the Knesset in our relatively disastrous electoral system, and since they also do not succeed in uniting themselves into a parliamentary majority, it will be proposed to waive the need to obtain such a majority.

The large minority party, i.e. a party that is relatively large but is not the majority, will not form and bring to the approval of the Knesset, but will appoint a minority government, which does not depend on the approval of the budget in the Knesset, and for a long time it will not be possible to overthrow it, except by a very large majority.

A minority government immune to abortion in the Knesset (that is, dictatorial in nature) is a convenient creature for the center-left for several reasons.

First, he is a minority that cannot escape being a minority.

Second, the center-left is finding it very difficult to govern with the cooperation of the Arab parties, which are now helping it to curb the Likud.

So maybe he will be able to convince them to agree to a minority government that will depend on them for legislative purposes, without them being forced to enter into it and thereby ratify the Zionist regime or support oppressive chiefs of staff.

Third, a minority government is a good way to complete Aharon Barak's oligarchic revolution and shield it for good from the will of the majority.

A minority government is very good for officers who do not want Netanyahu to buy them submarines, for economists who do not want unprofessional interventions by civil society and its parties in the management of the economy, and for lawyers who strive to be the real rulers of society.

In this we listed the main forces behind the center-left in Israel (with the exception of the press).

Such a minority government follows the anti-democratic ethos promoted in Europe under the European Union.

The ethos there is based on the rule of an elitist minority that distances itself by various methods, some of which are being offered to us now, from the harmful influence of the "ignorant masses".

That is why it was amusing to read a defense of the democratic legitimacy of a minority government that was "released" from the Knesset in Matan Gutman's response to my previous articles.

Gutman, from the Center for Citizen "Empowerment", pointed to several countries in Europe that cultivate minority governments.

Indeed, Gutman, we must guard against the fate of trampled democracy in Europe. There are signs of political preparation work.

Coordination between the Chiefs of Staff and Sa'ar party and Lapid, Labor and Meretz is evident: Lapid accepts refugees from Sa'ar's list, accepts in a "good spirit" Eisenkot's preference to join Gantz and mediates between Meretz and Labor.

All of this indicates a high possibility that after a draw in the elections, all of them will unite, lead the regime change with Odeh-Tibi and Abbas, and unite towards the establishment of a fortified minority government.

We need to understand the anti-democratic experimental balloons that Gantz and Saar recently brought up in order to neutralize the power of the Knesset.

The Israeli Democracy Institute and the Center for Citizen Empowerment actually laid out an orderly contingency plan for the establishment of an oligarchic dictatorship wrapped in democratic slogans.

Under the guise of caring for democracy, they come to undermine it from its foundations.

We must not allow the implementation of these dangerous plans under the cover of the political crisis.

This is the concern of all those with a democratic worldview, not just the right-wing people.

were we wrong

We will fix it!
