For many years I stayed in the Knesset and watched many demonstrations.
Not one of them resembled the one that took place the day before.
Nor the demonstration I attended at the end of the First Lebanon War, where Yona Avroshemi threw a hand grenade and killed Emil Greenzweig.
The demonstrations of defiance towards Benjamin Netanyahu were born in the previous round and were held throughout the country, centered on Balfour Square, Jerusalem.
I participated in about 70.
They were renewed with the formation of the current government, and the one held the other day seemed to seal a chapter, and at the bottom of it is the well-known line in print - "continue to come".
It had an unprecedented public in its scope, considering Jerusalem "Look around your eyes and see all gathered come to you".
There was a mixed feeling of rising power alongside helplessness.
She expressed hostility towards the coup d'état led by Yariv Levin and Simcha Rothman, and her success was fueled by her understanding of the government's political strategy.
While President Yitzhak Herzog is going out of his way to negotiate a compromise on an issue that threatens the unity of the nation, and both sides claim that they are facing an agreement and not a civil war, Levin erred in his arrogant refusal to delay the continuation of the legislation "even for one minute".
Such answers usually prompt retaliatory responses in the adversary's camp to that of an adversary.
I have known all the Ministers of Justice since Yaakov Shimshon Shapira was in office, and I cannot imagine that any of them would have rejected such a request from the President, which is nothing more than a manifestation of good will towards entering on equal terms into discussions that are difficult to resolve.
Herzog swallowed an important statement in his words, a kind of oxymoron: even if one side wins a crushing victory - both opponents will leave the battle with their hands on the bottom.
Correct contradiction.
The series of demonstrations since the establishment of the current Netanyahu government, and the reactions of the economy - especially high-tech - undermined his confidence in the wisdom of the rough management of the negotiations.
But apparently he was unable to get Levin and Rothman to respond to the President's request to symbolically and temporarily stop the legislative process, and therefore, in response to their rigidity, Yair Lapid informed them that in the absence of such a minimal agreement on their part - the opposition would not come forward to negotiate with them.
But this description, which preoccupies the electronic media a lot, deals with a few things.
Furthermore, even if they go deeper and reach an understanding on the essential controversial issues, such as the escalation clause, this will not solve the ever-increasing crisis.
The practical interpretation is that the protest movement will increase its activity, in clear opposition to Bibi's interest.
This is because if the parties manage to find a compromise formula for complex issues regarding Israel's democratic nature and how it is perceived in the West - this will not necessarily solve the explosive issue that, and only he, may extinguish the incendiary, namely - Netanyahu's criminal trial.
To put it plainly, even if the parties could reach an agreement regarding what majority is necessary in the Knesset to implement the override clause - if only 61 votes or more - it would not be to find an Archimedean point that would lead to a solution to the conflict.
The condition for any agreement is that it essentially includes a result that allows the trial against Netanyahu to be canceled or suspended.
Without this result, there will be no order.
But such an item cannot be placed publicly on the agenda.
Netanyahu's lawyers, who turned to Prof. Aharon Barak on his own initiative to arrange a plea deal for the Prime Minister, understood very well what it was all about.
In this context, some ideas were whispered that could satisfy the wolf without biting the sheep, and dissolve the democratic issue.
The proposals and controversies that will be raised during the negotiations, if indeed they are opened, will only be a matter of decorum, both for Netanyahu and for the leaders of the opposition.
When the first news is leaked that they are whispering among themselves about the 1000, 2000 and 4000 cases as a foundation for the governmental coup, a comprehensive arrangement for the legal coup will also be seen.
