Close your eyes and imagine Judge Esther Hayut's home in a sleepy neighborhood in central Israel. Imagine that at 5:30 in the morning, organized buses arrive, from which dozens of people disembark, stretch barbed wire, block the entrance to the parking lot, burn tires on the road and make noise in a populated area.
How many detainees are there from such an event? How soon does the police arrive? What political and media shock? The incident described did not take place with President Hayut but with Justice Minister Yariv Levin. Just like that, including burning tires in his neighborhood in Modiin. Only six rioters were arrested, who had been released by evening. The attorney general is as silent as the Dead Sea in Shrav, the gatekeepers have evaporated, there has been no political shock among the opposition, and the studios are relatively sleepy.
The guardians of democracy Demicolo decided to continue the campaign of bullying that began a few months ago, with the current cause of outrage being the most negligible clause in the reform - the grounds of reasonableness. They have a host of excuses for anarchy and holy rage; The reform in its previous form is a "blitz" for them, and now it is the "salami method." It seems that even if Levin breathes and blinks, they will see this as a terrible danger to democracy. The abandonment of the general public has further radicalized the hard core, which has recently begun to grotesquely refer to itself as "Kaplan Force." If Itzik Zarka and his friends had established any kind of "force," the public standards would tremble, but there are those who are allowed to.

They are allowed to block roads, burn flares on the Ayalon Highway, burn tires in the heart of a residential neighborhood, and block parking with barbed wire. It is permissible to declare a protest at Ben Gurion Airport until it is disrupted, and normative citizens explain that "it is possible to reach without difficulty by train." Yes, on the train, and if not, you ate it. Because there are those who are allowed. No one will knock on their door in the morning and take them for an investigation that could prevent mass violations of the law and disruption of thousands of lives. Gali Bahar-Miara is in a coma and the civilians are promiscuous.
This is a violation of the law and anarchy under the auspices of the state and its institutions. In a Knesset debate this week on police policy on blocking roads, it emerged that after five months of protest that included countless roadblocks, the State Prosecutor's Office received only one case for endangering human life in a traffic lane. One unique and special, out of hundreds of lawbreakers. In this world, politicians and retired generals call for civil disobedience and violation of the law, and only after a storm do the police launch an "examination." And in this world, Ayalon is blocked for hours and the police send a strike to a few dozen residents who demonstrated for their lives in the Psagot area.

After Levin's riot, a discussion ensued on Twitter, with a friend tweeting: "What suckers we were during the disengagement." Then a response appeared: "As someone who was a policeman back then, if you dared to behave even a tenth of that, we would have ripped off your arms and legs, not just your beard." And we all know that's exactly what would have happened. Because there are people who are allowed, and equality before the law is a fiction.
We are promiscuous. Those who do not prevent the anarchy led by the Kaplan Force will cause chaos in the streets, and even an impatient backlash against anarchism. What a tragedy.
