A war like this immediately creates a state of emergency in the country and obstructs the natural processes for the Knesset to take the constitutional oath.

Nothing is out of the question for Netanyahu; he is seeking to drag us into an unnecessary war with Iran, and the worrying thing is that this is happening in order to cling to power.

The state of Israel has committed genocide. I do not think this is a controversial statement. If you asked anyone knowledgeable about the matter, they would confirm to you that it was a genocide. Israel's human rights community also confirms that a genocide is taking place. The mere fact that our money is used by a foreign government to commit genocide, and our inability to continue the discussion on this matter, is deeply problematic in my view.

Aryeh Deri has withstood for years the wild media and leftist pressures that seek to crush the Shas party. And now, with blatant hypocrisy, they are prepared to offer everything they can to the Haredim to join them. Aryeh Deri and the Shas party are important partners for me and the right-wing bloc in leading the country, and Aryeh Deri contributes greatly in the government to Israel's security.

After the war ended and we returned from forced displacement to Zrariyeh, I checked the workshop near the family home. I was shocked at first sight when I saw the extent of the damage and that I had lost my first dream for my project, which I had worked to build and develop for 8 years. But shortly after, I made my decision and started from scratch. I first worked on removing the rubble, reinforcing part of the workshop's roof and facade with wood, re-tiling the floor with ceramic, designing the decor and arranging what survived of its contents—books, drawings, pictures and equipment related to pottery—in the southern part that survived the destruction.

The United States is the party that must make the decision, and Iran has conveyed to the American side everything necessary within a reasonable framework, and implementing Iran's demands is a condition for the return of security to the region and the Strait of Hormuz.

Restoring security in the region depends on implementing Tehran's demands, and opening the Strait of Hormuz is not possible before ending the blockade, and continuing the diplomatic path depends on the American decision.

The miserable attack that took place in front of the home of the party leader, Gadi Eisenkot, is a direct result of a corrupt and unrestrained political leadership that ignores red lines in order to stay in power. This is the state of delusion.

Everyone knows that Israel's foreign policy will not change toward the war in south Lebanon regardless of the government's shape, and there is an effort for a coalition government that includes the opposition as well after Netanyahu's failure to achieve an absolute majority to renew his term.

Netanyahu does not enjoy the necessary public trust to manage a battle of this kind, and he does not possess moral legitimacy, nor even the basic ability to do so.
