The cherry blossom of the right: the next government will work - and the crackers will crackle Israel today

Netanyahu, and also his partners, at least as of now, express unanimity regarding the desire and ability to govern in a manner called "full-full" • They may bless our lives, they may say Kaddish for the state, they may mutter blessed are the believers • The burden of proof - now rests on the elected officials


In the coming days, even if this is postponed and will be postponed a little longer, a government in Israel will be sworn in.

The composition of the new government will be expected and will include the four parties of the right-wing bloc.

This will be a sour Sabbath;

The tensions and negotiations between the partners were exposed and transparent throughout the negotiations.

Uncontrollable hysteria was also recorded in the space outside the bloc: the creative invention of many demons and the transformation of the leaders of the right-wing bloc into predators who yearn to exterminate democracy, brainwash children, return women to the kitchen, LGBT people to the closets, and the State of Israel to the Stone Age.

This process happened, is happening and will continue to happen regardless of the composition of right-wing governments in Israel, and regardless of activities and achievements.

Expect much more of the same, as is tradition.

Every evening a new storm, every morning a shock that is plucked from the apocalypse field plowed by the left.

The media climate in which the government is expected to operate is clear, and is not expected to have a dramatic effect on the policy it will adopt.

When you weaken from the chaos of negotiations

But through the clouds of war and the displays of muscle between the natural partners - something is still coming to an end.

Perhaps due to the public pressure from voters who began to express disgust and protest against the continuation of the coalition talks, perhaps because they realized the magnitude of the challenges that lie ahead and the unique opportunity to address them, and perhaps the bloc parties simply reached satisfaction with their achievements in the negotiations.

Be that as it may, elements in the emerging coalition began to sing other songs, a tune of reconciliation and an expression of optimism regarding the enormous potential that the government on the way holds.

"Other chants began to be played."

The most burning issues are of course governance and the economy, which is becoming more and more acute in light of the global crisis, the war in Ukraine and the expected harsh winter in Europe.

The battle over the finance portfolio was known to be full of passions and bitterness, yet the coalition seems to agree on a series of measures and reforms to strengthen the free economy.

The designated minister, Bezalel Smotrich, will receive a wide platform for action, and the model will be taken from Benjamin Netanyahu's tenure as finance minister from 2003, which was revolutionary for the Israeli economy.

Even then, Ariel Sharon gave a free hand to the necessary steps.

Prime Minister-designate Netanyahu will adopt a similar policy, but is expected to closely monitor the economic measures, with the one who gave up entry into the office of the Minister of Finance, Aryeh Deri, at his side, in order to prevent as much as possible damage to the weaker sections and to balance the economic ideology of Smotrich and Netanyahu with the social sensitivity required in its implementation.

The second burning issue for the citizens of the country is, as mentioned, governance.

The incoming government is already speeding up legislative procedures that will further strengthen the fight against the scourge of protectionism, illegal weapons, violence and the fight for the nation's lands.

This week Yaakov Borovski, a former superintendent, praised Ben Gabir and claimed that he had never come to the office of the minister in charge of the police with a plan, goals and a statement of intentions for the rehabilitation of the police and for dealing with the critical problems.

Less brave extras said the things not to be attributed.

Another hot topic - the governance.

In foreign policy as well, the captains of the new leadership expect not only a change of direction, but also breakthroughs.

The outgoing government returned Abu Mazen to center stage and the Palestinians, who despite the claims of fruitful cooperation with Lapid, Gantz and Co. - embarked on a political campaign against Israel, including initiatives to open international investigations against Israelis.

"Additional achievements" are a confrontation with Egypt over the end of Operation Dawn and the controversial - and in my opinion even promiscuous - agreement with Lebanon.

In recent weeks, the sowers of hysteria and the predictors of the political tsunami have watched with their own eyes how senior officials from the Gulf countries met with Smotrich and Ben Gvir, and sent a message of business as usual and an intention to continue expanding the Abraham Accords even with the "leper" government that is expected to be established.

It is also no secret that Netanyahu aims for significant progress against Saudi Arabia.

Even with regard to the less immediate political environment, members of the next government express confidence that they will be able to repair the enormous damage caused by Lapid vis-à-vis Eastern European countries, such as Poland, after years of warm relations and a political alliance with the Jewish state.

As soon as the storm of negotiations subsides, the government will start working.

The heads of the four parties understand that the voters who sent them to serve as members of the government and as those who hold the wheel of power, expect results;

Failure may lead to a strong reaction at the ballot box, and the patience of the voters is very short in the face of political delays and quarrels that hinder the goal of realizing right-wing policies.

The burden of proof

Netanyahu, and also his partners, at least as of now, express unanimity regarding the desire and ability to rule in a manner called "full-full".

This may be the "cherry blossom" of the Israeli right.

After years of toil and systematic struggles with officials, lawyers and gatekeepers on their own behalf, struggles that there is no doubt will continue in the coming term in full force, the time has come to pick the fruits and govern.

Faced with threats of civil uprisings that here and there come close to inciting resistance or violence, those who still exercise the muscle of the coalition negotiations are determined to work in cooperation and implement the policy for which they were elected.

There will be those who will bless our lives, there will be those who will say Kaddish about the state, there will be those who will mutter blessed is the believer.

The duty of proof to supporters, opponents, rebels and instigators and just ordinary citizens - now falls on the elected officials.
