“I’m not sure that people in America understood what happened here last Sunday,” Ilana Dayan, an Israeli journalist, says. “This was nothing like other demonstrations. This was pure rage and frustration—authentic and almost without boundary.”
. And Netanyahu realized his miscalculation. Between Sunday and Monday, he realized that he had to stop the legislation. But it took him until Monday at 8because of another weakness—his weakness within his own coalition. How do we know? Because he was forced to allow Itamar Ben-Gvir, the minister of national security, to have a private force, or private militia, which would be subordinate to Ben-Gvir, rather than to the police.
, who are in the military reserves. Many of them are guys over forty who still fly military planes. They are the ones who said, “We will not report to duty when this legislation is completed.” That was the leverage.The conventional wisdom is that he’s trying to gain time. When his defense minister publicly declared that there’s a clear and present danger to the security of the state of Israel because of what’s happening within the reserves, Netanyahu had no choice but to hold the legislation.
And so you see people on the left of center saying something that the President, Isaac Herzog, already said, which is, essentially, “If one camp wins, everybody loses.” If one camp runs over the other one, the other camp will be much more frustrated than it was at the beginning of this crisis. In the case of the protest movement, if the protest movement wins, then the right wing will feel that it keeps winning elections but is still losing its grip on the future of the state of Israel.
Here is an example. One of the wagons pulling the train of reform is the need for the Orthodox citizens of this country to be exempt from military service. It doesn’t matter why and how it started, but there’s a fight. And, for them, the main cause for grief is that the Supreme Court time and again has struck down legislation [that grants extensive exemptions from military service]. They want an override clause that would enable any future coalition to throw out such a ruling.
As someone who’s observing from a distance, I find it hard not to notice that the people most enthusiastic about exacerbating the other problems are also the ones perpetrating this crisis.
