Netanyahu to the opposition: "I would be happy to hear what you agree to, it will advance us"

Later, Netanyahu responded to the opposition's claims and said that "We want agreements and you just say 'no, no, no.' , is a veteran midwife in one of the largest hospitals in Israel. For decades, she has helped tens of thousands of couples of parents bring children into the world. In this position, it never occurred to her to share her political positions with the parents who are in the delivery room."

"She didn't do it in the days of the Red Book, in the days of Oslo, by breaking away. She never did that. She had firm opinions, she had a captive audience in the delivery room, she could tell them anything that came to her mind. But it was clear to Hannah that this was not the place To do so because it is not her job. Unlike Hana the midwife, Doron is a pilot in an Israeli airline. He sails up, in the heights, in the skies. He too, like Hana, has firm and private opinions. That is perfectly fine and it is his right. He too, like Hana, has a captive audience who sits inside the plane. But unlike Hana in the delivery room, he allows himself to preach to the passengers. The passengers didn't buy a plane ticket to hear him, they simply asked to go on vacation. But Doron thinks to himself: "Who are they, they will hear what I want to preach to them," added

"Because Doron is a class A citizen. He is allowed, and Hanna is not allowed. She is not a class A citizen," Netanyahu claimed and concluded: "If Hana and Doron had met and really talked, I am sure they would have been able to reach an agreement on the majority. Because at the end of this Not as far as you think. And the reason is that we are all first-class citizens, and even if we don't agree on everything – we are one people. I call on you to recalculate a course and come to real talks to reach agreements. I would tell you to stop automatically rejecting any of our proposals in order to that we can gather in the equal valley," Netanyahu concluded.

The head of the opposition, Yair Lapid, spoke after the Prime Minister and responded to the words: "In the last two weeks, the government started talking about the unity of the people. This is a refreshing innovation. Before you just told us that we would go to hell, as Minister Karai used to say, suddenly you stopped, and started saying that it is very important to preserve the unity of the people. I I'm not cynical about it, I welcome it. It's better to talk about the unity of the people than the drunkenness of power that was here after the elections. This is also what the people would want. This is what the sane majority wants, for the government to work in unity, not in division.

"The question is, what are you willing to do for unity? Because the unity of the people is not something that happens by itself. The nation is falling apart, families are being torn apart, children do not come to Shabbat meals with their parents because of politics. If we want unity, we have to work at it. The unity of the people is created when people are willing to do Things for the country. The national-liberal public has always understood this. It has always known that unity is created when people are willing to contribute to the country. Joining the army, for example, is a contribution to the unity of the people. To work – to pay taxes, to know that your money, which you worked hard for, will be used for purposes you do not believe in them. This is a real action for the unity of the people."

"Which raises the question before the government and the coalition: What is your part? What are you willing to do for the unity of the people? Because right now you are in power, you are the government, you have the power, and there is only one thing you need to do for the unity of the people. In fact, you don't even have to do anything , you just have to avoid something. All that is asked of you is that Israel remains a law-abiding democracy. If the unity of the people is really important to you, what you need to do for it – is just to stop. Leave the committee for selecting judges, don't try to control the High Court, And that's it, that will be enough, you will see an immediate improvement in the unity of the people."

"If you stop, everything will balance out. You will do your job as a government, and there will be unity among the people. We will continue to argue, I will continue to think that you are a failed and shocking government, but it will be a quarrel over issues that are really important to the citizens of Israel, about the economy and security. And most importantly – it will return to being Quarrel within the family."

"If you do that, maybe a miracle will even happen, and we will not only be able to restore the unity of the people, but also add to and strengthen the unity of the people. Because if you are willing to make an effort for unity, not just make a speech about it, preferably in English in front of the Speaker of the House of Representatives, then We will go together and write a constitution for Israel, we will base it on the Declaration of Independence, we will have a new and improved contract for the State of Israel. A Jewish, democratic, united state," concluded Lapid.
