‘We’re all together’: Black Flag protest group welcomes gov’t with giant Tel Aviv display

[IsraelTimes] The Black Flag movement, which has led protests against Benjamin Netanyahu over the past year, puts up a giant display at Tel Aviv’s Rabin Square welcoming the new "change government."

The group writes "Together" alongside an Israel flag.

"The State of Israel has suffered collective trauma over the past two years," the movement says. "The elections, incitement and threat to democracy left us very fractured. The state is facing immense challenges on the economy and health, welfare and reducing social gaps. These are challenges we can only face if we are together."

"Only together will we be able to reinstate the social cohesion that had characterized Israel. From now on, we are all together."

#2 I spoke to some sources, and some of them supported the change, some of them were rooting for Bibi's return and a permanent hand on the levers. None who supported the change seem to me to be the kind of men Israel needs at the moment. Naive is the term, I believe. It was a consolation to me that the moslem world does not look relieved and some even anticipate a nastier fistfcuk of some sort coming. Yet others are for 'the right of Paleostine to co-exist' Absolute Idiots is the term here.

What I perceive, and correct me if I'm wrong, is that these are people who, not appreciating the sheer gravity of being Israel, have their priorities and perspective all wrong. Some of them believe they are nationalists, but their idea of nation is only somewhere they can prosper or their ideas are accommodated, even at the cost of national security. Some are secularists and bleeding heart liberals egged on by their foreign acquaintances and nursing hollow doctrines of 'democracy' and 'equality'. But the most dangerous are the politicals, the ambitious ones who seek some part of what is most certainly not a pie; those who take Israel to be just another economy to be run like some socialist gravy train patterned on other ~~failing~~ States.

At the heart of all this nonsense lies the problem of good ol' parliamentary deem-oh-crazy, the anti-thesis of Darwin according to me.

#3 I surely don't know, but just reading the news it seems to me that support for "Palestine" is more intense among the American left than it is among the Arab states.

#4 Another group of people exercising their right to vote themselves out of existence.

#5 It occurred to me, to wonder if this coalition has funding originating in the massive US stimulus/budget. Perhaps some re-routing through the Pakistani Gender Studies Group.

I'm not the only one who found it odd that after $200million got slated for the Paleos, they started lobbing missiles as soon as the check cleared and the money divvied.
