Yoav Galant talking on the phone with his mother Fromma (Instagram)
The truth is that I wrote a completely different column, but as they say in Yiddish, the daughter of man plans and God bursts out laughing.
I was sitting cross-legged on the couch that had already taken the shape of my body, the TV was on, and I was doing the most important job of all, which is not applying nail polish.
Out of the corner of my eye I saw a highlighted strip on the TV screen that said in threatening letters - Netanyahu fired Gallant - and boom.
The nail polish fell on my carpet (for a peace carpet).
I searched desperately for the remote with frantic movements because the nail polish was still damp, and I listened as my jaw slowly slid to the floor.
And then it started, in seconds I turned into a relay station like a wireless operator in Palmach. My active friends screamed at me from the show "At 22.00 everyone is in Kaplan.
Drink!!!!"
I started working.

I don't know how it is for you, but I'm sure that many in their childhood fantasized about being a heroic heroine.
In the 5th grade, for example, I fantasized that I was a Nazi hunter, or Hana Sanesh but without the ending, and of course Tamar Mashamba.
And this childish feeling enveloped me as I "worked" to share, and spread its sweet taste dipped in adrenaline.
While my eyes were running between all the screens, TV channels, Facebook, Instagram and Twitter, I discovered that there were greedy things that excited me.
Someone took a WhatsApp screenshot and wrote "My 84-year-old grandmother went out with a friend her age to Kaplan."
And the screen read "Grandma, are you okay?"
And grandma replied "Of course where are you? We will win!"
And she didn't forget an exclamation point.
"Israelis give a score to every woman who goes over the ass and the tit"

Another image on Instagram that moved me.
Gallant is talking to his mother, who is presumably a very old woman.
He informs her that he was fired, and she replies, "You have intelligence and courage."
Gallant, who in 40 years of service never gave half a smile to anyone, smiled like a child who received a birthday present.
Because we all, at any age, need approval from mom.
And amidst all the commotion calls from abroad - my friend from New York in a half-hysterical, half-euphoric tone "What's going on, did you bring up Independence Day?" No honey, it's the 29th of November, the new version.
And from London, the family asks 100 questions a minute and concludes "it's a shame we're not in Israel now" and added that "all over the world cheer for the Israelis".
Israelis are us, by the way.
respect.
But what captured my heart was one sign from Chukmek carried by a woman/girl with a black smile from ear to ear.
"S'emek, I was already in bed."
"Samek. I was already in bed" our sister (photo: screenshot, Instagram)
My friend Haley managed to take a picture and I found myself looking at the sign and laughing.
Because the simple truth is the most graceful of all.
And I imagined the evening of this girl who must have had an exhausting day, maybe she was a student, maybe she worked, she went to bed early, with a TV like mine on a yacht, and suddenly a wave of phones, WhatsApp and orders - take a flag, scribble some kind of sign, and come on, they'll pick you up in a little while , everyone is on their way to Kaplan.
And she must have said, damn it's all Sunday, and somehow dragged herself, rummaged through the closet and pulled out some Bristol and just wrote the truth with a marker without thinking too much.
"Samek I was already in bed"
it has everything if you think about it.
Leave us alone, let us live in peace anyway, life sucks twice a week.
Towards four in the morning Shi-Li Lipa on Instagram with an illustration of the Israeli flag,
two blue lines and in the position of the Star of David it was written on it!
Clearly awake, like I haven't been in years.
