Opinion It's time to do everything differently Israel today

2022-12-01T20:25:24.343Z


It is possible that in order to uproot the wrong diskettes from the systems, outsiders like Ben Gabir and Smotrich are needed.


The most outrageous thing is to hear former senior officials in the army, police and other government systems, who sternly warn against the intentions of the incoming government to bring about changes.

Apart from the warnings against the "murder of democracy", they explain to us why everything was paradise for them, in which nothing should be changed.

If it wasn't so outrageous you could laugh at the stupidity and blindness of those who brought us this far.

Because the situation that prevails here in recent years, including Netanyahu's years, is very bad.

This is a reality where the government systems are broken and neutered, and only the private sector leads the country to prosperity.

We see the results in terrorism, crime, roads, traffic jams in ports, the housing crisis, the feeling that we are all promiscuous, even in the scandal of the failure of IDF soldiers in Hebron. This situation must be fixed from the ground up, and assume that everything needs to be done differently.

We also see the results in terrorism.

A central Hamas outcry concerns the demand of Itamar Ben Gvir to receive real powers to lead a policy that will govern law and order.

The geniuses of "Guardian of the Walls", the intifadas, the celebrations of the terrorists in prison and the escapes from the bars, the stars of the takeover of the state's lands - they all teach us lessons in governance and authority.

On the security front, we are taught by the followers of Oslo, including Benny Gantz, who, during his shifts as Chief of Staff and Minister of Defense, we have repeatedly failed on every front: in front of Gaza, in front of Fatah and the Palestinian Authority, in front of insolent Bedouins and Arabs, who steal the soldiers' weapons at night and disappear from ammunition stores.

Not to mention the serious sermons explained by retired senior judges and attorneys.

Leave the escalation clause - after all, a substantial part of the violence on the roads, the shootings and the riots in the Negev and the Galilee are the product of fundamental failures in the justice system.

Not everything is the fault of the judges themselves, many times it is about neutering legislation or distorted instructions of the legal counsel.

But lenient verdicts and an exaggerated and distorted perception of rights, which has been sterilizing us for decades, play a central role in the current chaos.

The systemic failure and failure is evident even in the recent incident in Hebron surrounding the unnecessary trial of a Givat soldier.

It starts with the way Israel allows a handful of enemies to receive huge budgets from foreign governments and entities and use them to crumble the foundations of the state.

The hostile foreign financing should have been banned a long time ago.

As is customary in countries like the USA - to limit these foreign front organizations, and at the same time to act decisively against the "friendly" countries that are undermining us. At the same time, we allow subversive activists from abroad to nest in our midst, to cause deliberate provocations in Hebron, along the fence, in the olive groves.

Those who conduct deliberate exercises for the sake of the camera, to fail soldiers and settlers, provide courage and audacity to the Palestinian riots, and especially present a distorted image of us in the world.

Instead of denying entry and immediately deporting any tourist involved in anti-Israeli activity, we stand helpless and in the end send soldiers to arrest them.

True, those who are largely to blame for creating this reality are Binyamin Netanyahu and the Likud, who have supposedly ruled here since 1977. It is the Likud leaders who surrendered and surrendered to self-castration and paralysis, from the Israel Institute for Democracy and the "Haaretz" communities.

Netanyahu himself eagerly cooperated with the distortion, as long as he thought it was good for his personal career.

In any case, this reality must be stopped and changed: in legislation, in court rulings, in police operations, in the army and in the Shin Bet, in shaking up all our systems that have become impotent due to public spirit and legal castration. Everything must be reexamined, including the methods of operation and powers of governmental forces, and certainly law and instructions. It's a shame that our experienced and good people, who are not on the right political side, will not participate in this revolution. But it is possible that in order to uproot the wrong diskettes from the systems, outsiders like Ben Gabir and Smotrich are now needed. Therefore, it is better to ignore the warnings and the preachings, and give the spirit of change all the tools. If Because it is important to watch over the reformers as well, so that they don't spoil their own serious corruptions.

Good morning, Qatar

There is something pathetic in the reports of Israeli reporters from Qatar about the hatred and hostility towards us.

This is a strange awakening, which only shows the strength of the self-deception in which a part of Israeli society exposes itself.

Good morning to all who wake up!

Qatar is indeed an enemy country, and yes - most of the Arab world hates us and wants us to disappear from here, at best.

No, he is not interested in Yitzhar and Beit El, he wants the State of Israel to cease to exist, period.

We have been telling ourselves a false story for decades, certainly since the Oslo Accords, the disengagement and also the Abraham Accords.

Until we follow with attention and awareness about what is happening in Arab society, first of all at home, we will not be considered a nation that desires life.

Let's start with Qatar.

A dwarf state with a corrupt government that finances our enemies, sweetens a secret with the Iranians, fuels those who shoot missiles and commit terrorist attacks, and hosts the great instigators and murderers who work against us.

A regime that owns the "Al Jazeera" propaganda broadcasts, which poison the Arabic speakers of the world against us every day and present us as bloodthirsty murderers.

And we, stupid and detached like us, instead of fighting this murderous propaganda, let the agents of the enemy, disguised as journalists, broadcast the poisoning from within Israel.

Enemy propagandists like Shireen Abu Aqla who was killed in Jenin are labeled as journalists.

So what exactly did you expect to find in Qatar, our fools - a country that bought the World Cup with a lot of bribes and let you in only because they forced it.

You were pushed into an enemy country, and you expect the Arab world to fall on your neck?

We are ashamed of the Abrahamic agreements, but pay attention to what is happening in the two countries that signed peace agreements with us decades ago - Egypt and Jordan.

Only recently was it announced that the Cairo authorities prevent Egyptian citizens from coming here to visit.

And it goes without saying that Israelis do not set foot in the pyramids and the amazing tourist sites of the land of the Nile, an hour's flight away from here.

Although Israel strategically supports the Egyptian regime, there is really no peace, and Egyptian popular hatred is deeply rooted.

And Jordan - 70 percent of its inhabitants are Palestinians who hate us a priori, and also from the administration blows a wind of hostility and incitement.

Just this week, a film was released on Netflix that shows us as baby killers since 1978. Such a film would not have been produced and represented Jordan, if not for the support and encouragement of the king and the government.

And we still haven't started talking about what's happening here and with us.

From Ramallah, fifteen minutes from the capital city, a daily message goes out that denies our right to exist.

Look at the textbooks of the Palestinian Authority that we established, and you will understand what you get in the stadiums of Doha.

You will also be interested in the social networks and radio broadcasts of many Israeli Westerners, including the Israeli corporation's broadcasts in Arabic.

You will find endless Qatar-style hatred there, the one that many of us deliberately ignore, in a way that puts us all at risk.

were we wrong

We will fix it!
