on the one hand Bennett is becoming a bit of a nudnik crybaby, on the other hand he is staying on message very well.
If not for his party, Bennett would really be a great candidate, also if not for hi regular answer of not being willing to say he won't sit under Bibi. Not because he needs to invalidate bibi but because if he really intends to win he shouldnt be talking about what will happen if he doent. He should be responding that he intends to be Prime Minister, and when they ask him what happens if, he should just say he plans to be prime minister and if that doesnt work out he'll figure it out then.

BIG DEAL -- this Monday morning quarterbacking second guessing one month later.
ReplyDeleteWhat other country closed their airport?
Just last summer, your #2, Ayelet Shaked (whom I respect said) --> “The Israeli government has gone to sleep again,” Shaked said. “The skies have been closed for many months. This is a very serious blow to the Israeli economy, the high-tech industry, the ability to do business. The world will get used to working without Israel,” she warned.
A major driver of this is the stubbornness of elements in the Haredi community giving Israeli a HORRIBLE choice of two HORRIBLE options -- allow them to infect the rest of us through their CALLOUS disregard of anyone other then THEM, or crack down on them in a manner that no democracy can follow through with.
It's not just the haredi - the court overrode the government and allows huge and regular demonstrations.
And it's the culture here - you can't blame the government for THAT, unless you want a fascist government which breaks into peoples' houses.
The numbers are spiking THROUGHOUT the world (except for New Zealand and the far-east) - the main difference is that our government actually GOT the vaccines. Our government went to the suppliers EARLY and were willing to pay a price-premium and to share the data -- now the Europeans (and MANY in the USA) are waiting on line behind us.
