Opinion Four days to the elections: the "Zionist train" is derailing us - and it's not the end yet Israel today

2022-10-27T20:45:22.523Z


Just before the elections, and only "a minute" after MK Aida Toma-Sleiman mourned the death of the "Lions' Den" terrorists, it is quite clear that the parties of Lapid and Gantz are building on the support of Knesset members from the same ideological environment • We found ourselves facing a coalition that some of its members identify with with the worst rioters of our enemies outside


96 hours before the opening of the polls, Israel is on a slippery slope.

Without realizing it, the "Zionist train" is derailing us.

First, they qualified here a "spot-on", "ad-hoc" cooperation with MKs who were "martyrs".

Then they swore, on both sides of the political barrier, that "they will only lean on them from the outside".

In the end, we found ourselves in front of a coalition, some of whose members sympathize with the rioters within us at home and with the worst of our enemies abroad.

This is the slippery slope.

We are not done yet.

Even now, just before the elections, and only "a minute" after MK Aida Toma-Sleiman mourned the death of the "Lions Den" terrorists, it is quite clear that the parties of Lapid and Gantz are building on the support of Knesset members from the same ideological environment. They call it " leaning", "from the outside", while Mansor Abbas has long held two "kosher certificates": one signed by Lapid and Gantz as a full coalition partner, and the other, informal, by part of the right-wing camp, as an "external supporter" of a future government.

There is no poor moment here, only our memory is poor, and we need reminders of who and what it is about.

Mansur Abbas, personally, and his Shura Council from the southern faction, base their supposedly moderate conduct on the "Khudayba Agreement".

They derive legitimacy from this historic agreement, 1,400 years old;

An agreement that has become synonymous with deception and legitimate incitement, and is the code of their current political conduct. Ibrahim Hijazi, the head of the political bureau of the southern faction, which the RAM represents in the Knesset, has already made it clear that Israel is a "circumstantial", "transient" state. MK The late Said Al Harumi promised in front of the pictures of the killer of Avi Har-Evan and the perpetrators of the lynchings in the north, that "Acre will not leave its children in the prisons of the occupation."

Walid Taha, chairman of the Interior Committee (RAM), defines Zionism as a "cruel racist project" and the Palestinians as "owners of this land."

The Zionist train is derailing

And what else have we managed to forget: we have forgotten how during the "Dawn" days the Arab MKs chose a side - the side of Gaza, and identified with the enemy. "We are the only party that practically supports the Palestinian people," Mr. Civil Agenda, Mansor Abbas, clarified at the time. He He apologized that his influence has decreased, since this is a transitional government that does not need a coalition to exist. As if he wanted to say: "Not that I don't want to.

I just can't."

Said Badran, MK Taha's adviser, dispelled the fog in those days: "If we were in a permanent government, there would not have been an operation in Gaza because we would have prevented it."

And when he was still "able", Abbas bent Bennet in the Negev and on the issue of the Temple Mount, about which he spoke with King Abdullah of Jordan.

According to an exposé by Ze'ev Kam from yesterday - Yair Ma'an, the head of the Bedouin Development Authority in the Negev, reveals how Mansor Abbas' alleged intervention in a land auction in the Negev led to the reduction of housing benefits for Bedouin soldiers in Berhat.

Toma-Soliman is not the first to openly identify with terrorists from Nablus.

She was preceded by her colleague Ahmed Tibi.

Another "moderate", who is being talked about as a future partner of Lapid.

Tibi, already in February, defined as "martyrs" the members of a terrorist squad that was thwarted in Nablus, and called their elimination "an execution and an act of terrorism and a crime."

And all this only on the tip of the fork, from many murky waters that wash us, and there is no sugar and no buffer;

Except MK Smotrich, who had to apologize after refreshing our memory with the facts. 

Both sides are deluding themselves that this tiger can be "tamed".

And they are wrong: a tiger remains a tiger.

The dependence on subversives and the praises of "martyrs" is malignant.

The cars of Ra'am and Hadash-Ta'al, which have already been connected to the Zionist train, take it off the tracks.

The Arab street is also affected.

All the time, the volume and number of displays of arrogance and wild takeover by Arab-Israelis, most of them young, on parts of our society and public space is increasing.

A demonstrative, blatant, loud, wild, and above all confrontational and defiant takeover, the nuances of which are distinctly nationalist and religious.

The last performance took place in the Har Huma neighborhood in Jerusalem.

Four days before the end of this boring election campaign, agreement is urgently needed on new rules of the game: ones that favor Jewish-Zionist unity - yes, including Netanyahu!

- on the face of the party camp, which has become blind to everything that is not a victory over the political opponent;

Blind to the slippery slope and the anti-Zionist appetite of Abbas, Tibi and their friends, which is only increasing and is already eating us in every mouth.

were we wrong

We will fix it!
