The SA Will Never Concede (IMPORTANT UPDATE)

10 Menachem Av 5783

For the benefit of those who have not already read the post below, I'll put it in a nutshell.

Below, I share information which indicates that the next step in this orchestrated battle appears to be for the protesters to double-down on their claim that this is an illegitimate government and “it’s forbidden to believe or hold dialogue with an illegitimate government,”.... 

 A supposedly staunch antagonist of Netanyahu has made the suggestion that the PM fire his right-wing coalition partners and form an "emergency government" with Gantz et al.  (Details below.)  

Ben Gvir has been made out to be the boogey man of our tale, so it's no surprise that the media is coming down hard on him today: for "police excesses" against the protestors, as well as some video/audio of him "attacking" a foreign worker; and of course, his trip to the Temple Mount which was roundly condemned by the US, Jordan and Saudi Arabia.

What makes this point more interesting is the breaking news from the NYT's reporter Thomas Friedman, may his name and memory be erased.  Whenever the US government wants to send a message loud and clear, they use Mr. Friedman.

NYT: Biden weighing Saudi agreement, Israel may face concessions to Palestinians

New York Times columnist Thomas Friedman, who is considered close to U.S. President Joe Biden, wrote Wednesday in his weekly column that he spoke with the American president about the possibility of a Saudi-Israeli agreement. The agreement would include concessions to the Palestinians that would preserve the option of a two-state solution in the future.

...According to him, “if the U.S. forges a security alliance with Saudi Arabia — on the conditions that it normalize relations with Israel and that Israel make meaningful concessions to the Palestinians — Netanyahu’s ruling coalition of Jewish supremacists and religious extremists would have to answer this question: You can annex the West Bank, or you can have peace with Saudi Arabia and the whole Muslim world, but you can’t have both, so which will it be?”

...The New York Times first reported about Biden’s efforts toward a historic agreement last month. The report stated that with an eye on the 2024 elections, Biden and his senior officials have engaged in extensive diplomatic efforts to reach a normalization agreement between Jerusalem and Riyadh. The emerging agreement, essentially being negotiated behind closed doors, will require each side to abandon longstanding positions they have held.

...In recent months, several senior Israeli officials have been tasked with the matter, including Strategic Affairs Minister Ron Dermer, a former Israeli ambassador to Washington, and National Security Adviser Tzachi Hanegbi. Both have visited the United States several times in recent months, discussing this issue among other things with senior American officials.

Netanyahu himself does not hide his hopes for an agreement with Riyadh, and in an ABC interview Wednesday, he mentioned the issue. He addressed his relationship with the U.S. president, who has not yet officially invited him to the White House, seven months after the start of his sixth term as prime minister, and said, "Our relations are very strong. I can tell you that we are working on things that I think will change history."

They aren't mentioning this little tidbit, but surely it's on the table, too.

Jerusalem Temple Mount control could be decided with Saudi Arabia's help 

Opinion: Netanyahu must start mulling the transfer of custodianship over the Jerusalem compound, holy to both Jews and Muslims, from Jordan to Saudi Arabia in effort to promote relations 

We have to prepare ourselves for a bumpy ride. They all, including Netanyahu (and I think Ben Gvir, also), are in on this plan and each is just playing his part.  I think they will pull this off and the world will pour accolades on them.  Will this finally push Iran into action???

Anti-overhaul protesters to rally tomorrow [July 27] against ‘clearly illegitimate’ reasonableness law

“The Israeli government passed a clearly illegitimate law that has a black flag flying above it,” the protesters say in a statement, “and therefore is becoming a clearly illegitimate government.”

“It’s forbidden to believe or hold dialogue with an illegitimate government,” they add.

What made Ronen Tzur, Netanyahu's extreme opponent, change his mind?

Zur unexpectedly calls on the heads of the opposition parties to enter a unity government with Netanyahu. Just a few days ago, he called for the collective resignation of the opposition against the background of the reasonableness grounds legislation.

...Ronan Tzur, a political consultant and one of the prominent and extreme opponents of Prime Minister Netanyahu and the reform of the judicial system, surprises in the last day when he calls on the opposition parties to join the government with Netanyahu in place of the extreme right-wing parties.

...Enter an emergency government now.  Replace the madmen.  Take command of security, justice, internal security.  Put your hands on the wheel.  Don't let them destroy the house.

...In the following he details the outline he offers:

• Emergency government for 24 months and elections.
  
  
•  Rotation between Gantz and Netanyahu.
  
  
• Arrangement of a preliminary constitution outline.
  
  
•  Expulsion of the madmen from the government.

Just before the right-wing number, Tzur turned to the opposition parties and called on them to break the rules: "Lapid, Gantz, Michaeli and Lieberman.  Don't stop.  Don't be afraid.  Don't be afraid.  Collective resignation.  Final.  This image will resonate throughout the whole world.

So this is the next step we can expect from the rebels.  Condemnation continues to come in from abroad, both from foreign governments as well as Diaspora Jewish Institutions.

A new world does not come about without a lot of pain and suffering, chaos and confusion, blood and fear.  But!  It doesn't have to be our pain and suffering, chaos and confusion, blood and fear!  The whole point of understanding what's really happening and why and who wins in the end is so that we can cross through this transition the way we crossed the Reed Sea - in full confidence and trust in HKB"H and without fear or harm as our enemies go down.  Just rest in the assurance that all is from HKB"H and is for the ultimate good.  He is taking down all the gods of "Egypt," and democracy is just one.
