From Trump to Tarabin: A Victory Image for Benjamin

By: Mohammad yahya בפסק הזמן בין מלחמות קצרות וארוכות מנסה ראש הממשלה למצוא תמונת ניצחון כנדוניה ליום הבחירות,In the pause between short and long wars, the prime minister is trying to find a “victory image” to present as a gift for election day—at any price, even at the cost of precious human lives.

This is the reality. Between a visit to Trump and a tour of Tarabin al-Sana, amid a routine of war and crime in Arab society. Everything is permissible, everything is for sale. The main thing is that the ratings go up. One more seat, more time in power.

Force is the message. That is the name of the game. That is what works, what sells, and what wins.

So how will we survive the war of survival within Arab society? And how will the state deal with a government that shuffles the deck when there is no serious opposition?And what will prevent it from postponing the elections and igniting another local or regional arena? Anything is possible.Everything is open—but nothing is safe at all.

From Trump to Tarabin: a victory image for Benjamin, and one great loss for all citizens.
