It's not a matter of right and left, the picture of the terrorist with the cigarette we should not have seen

There are many current affairs hours on television in Israel, but very few are true.

Between an artificial storm over a picture of a terrorist with a cigarette, a lottery of discounted apartments to a prime minister who is unable to manage the unknowns he has become MKs - it is easy to miss the thread that runs between all the items in the edition

In the video: Documentation of the arrest of the terrorists who carried out the attack in Elad (documentation on social networks according to section 27A of the Copyright Law, GSS and police spokeswoman and Niv Aharonson)

An almost invisible thread to the eyes, but one that cannot be detached, is pulled between items in the current affairs editions last night.

Yonit Levy talks about the capture of the terrorists from Elad, Hila Korach reports on the results of the "Apartment at a Discount" lottery, Yinon Magal is angry about pictures of a terrorist smoking a cigarette, Noga Nir Ne'eman reports on new vacation destinations in Egypt, Barhanu Tagania hears from the victim's widow Following reports that he drove the terrorists to Elad, Amit Segal reports another ultimatum from a right-wing MK to blow up the government, Adva Dadon reveals a man who allegedly gets rich at the expense of patients in need of a transplant, the confused Yuval seeks the death penalty for terrorists, and finally, Prof. Amir Hatzroni complains about So the "terrorist" who threw a chair at him was released from custody.

We'll start from the end.

An ancient proverb of the Cree tribe in Liberia says: "If you fail to hunt an ant, do not try to hunt elephants."

From acquaintance with the televised character of Prof. Hatzroni it will be difficult for him to agree with proverbs originating from primitive African tribes, but in this case there is nothing more appropriate than him.

If the state is incapable of detaining a dangerous thug who has committed a violent crime on a live broadcast, what can we expect from it when it comes to protecting civilians from terrorists who seek to murder people on the basis of their nationality?

While severe violence is perceived in the media as a curiosity (Sachtein to Hatzroni about the self-humor he displayed in Eric Weiss in "The Pipe"), the network stormed yesterday around images of a terrorist with a cigarette.

It's as natural as it's dumb.

Somehow, even around the frame of a murderous human scum engaged in a simple earthly act like cigarette smoking we were able to split right and left.

The right claimed that the terrorist should not be allowed to smoke (even a particularly stupid demand was made to prosecute the fighter who handed the terrorist the cigarette), while the left claimed that this was a sophisticated GSS interrogation tactic. Covert "and" law and order ".

There is no connection between right and left.

The truth is that it does not matter at all whether these are GSS interrogation methods or not, intelligent human beings with a fraction of an understanding between good and evil, unprepared to deal with the appearance of a despicable killer engaged in such a banal act as cigarette smoking. The thought of the 16 orphans forced Watching this monster take comfort in a bit of insane nicotine. It's not a matter of right and left, but of common sense. To anyone who circulated the photos they would cause an unnecessary storm, at the expense of a few more bereaved families that we would forget about until the next siren.

Incidentally unnecessary storms, the ancient proverb of the Hakro tribe on the ants and elephants jumps to mind even when a smiling fellow faculty member recounts that MK Shirley Pinto plays in "Hold Me" with Prime Minister Bennett.

It is sad to think that the person entrusted with restoring personal security to the citizens of Israel is unable to deal even with his party members.

The anonymous people who became MKs are simply abusing him politically.

It looks a little sad.

The man who tried to hunt big elephants like Putin, eventually gets political advice on a confused horny live broadcast.

But it's not fair to drop everything on Bennett.

This is a country in a state of ongoing depression, long before he dreamed of entering the prime minister's office.

A country that sends more than a hundred thousand young couples to compete in the lottery for the right to buy an apartment at an exorbitant price in Nahariya and Dimona anyway.

Those who did not win, will not be able to achieve this either.

Somehow, we are all fine with the fact that this country has become a casino, where people can gamble on their future.

The question that remains hanging in the air is what are all those tens of thousands of Israelis who did not win the lottery supposed to do?

The dream of an apartment in Israel has become a nightmare.

Is it any wonder that a father of six children finds himself transporting Palestinian Shiites for easy money? He probably did not know that they were terrorists.

Those who are still looking for a bit of escapism from all the politics and terrorist attacks and the cost of living and the general depression may be happy to hear about the new airlines that are opening between Tel Aviv and Luxor.

That is, not direct routes, but connecting flights from Sharm el-Sheikh (as it is already possible to get to Luxor on connecting flights from Cairo).

In addition, another Egyptian coastal town is being exposed that may be a cheaper alternative than Sharm.

And who is the public relations man who presents Langa Nir Ne'eman with all this beauty?

The kind and eloquent publicist Moshe Kahlon. It seems that Kahlon strongly believes in the product he sells, and he knows all the smallest details in the glittering product. Here he talks about the cultural element, the geopolitical importance, the security arrangements. I wonder how you can convey an entire journalistic article With a man who until a moment ago was finance minister without trying to figure out what his role was in the new venture, and no less interesting: how he got to the new job. "Be like windows" shouted his old election slogan,

The truth is that it is not Kahlon's fault, he is merely privileged to be on the right side of the wheel of the State of Israel.

He gets to experience the stock sides of our wonderful depressive stock country.

A state between sirens sends patients who need organ transplants to pay the makers to get some kidney or piece of liver.

There is so little trust in the state systems, so much bad experience in the face of sabotage and institutional indifference.

What a fertile pad for professional crooks there is in this country.

Adva Dadon can run her whole life, and she will never be able to catch them all.

Not all crooks look like this.

Some wear a suit and tie and appear on television every evening as "journalists."

These will ignore facts, tell the public lies, and all in the name of sacrificing the victims in front of you.

Sometimes it's some leader sent to find out, but for the most part it's just a matter of ratings.

The truth cannot be imitated, once you do that, it ceases to be true.

There are many current affairs programs on television in Israel, but very few are true.
