Will Israel simply wake up to the way things were, returning to the period preceding the investigation and the indictment, before the attempted regime overhaul and the October 7 war? Will Netanyahu shake off his wiliness and cruelty, extending a conciliatory hand to his rivals?

Ministers are considering a proposal from the Israeli education minister to allocate nearly $11 million to programs run by Garin Torani, which sets up Jewish religious Zionist groups in underprivileged areas. The funding would come from budgets previously earmarked for housing, culture, defense, and sustainability

The opposition criticized the move, claiming Netanyahu is trying to 'manufacture a narrative' and whitewash his responsibility for October 7 by choosing a name that doesn't reflect the disaster. Yael Adar, mother to hostage Tamir, responded, 'There is no redemption for Israel'

The bill would let the Shin Bet security agency use anti-terror tools against criminals, including administrative detention. Critics warn it risks overreach and misuse against civilians. Ben-Gvir claims existing measures fail to curb rising murders, most of them in the Arab community

Intelligence assessments by the IDF and Shin Bet indicate that Hamas knows the locations of most of the remains but has lost track of a few, despite Hamas' Wednesday statement that it has handed over all the bodies it could locate

Now, less than a week after the remaining living hostages returned, the signs indicate that we are continuing to react in line with the glorious traditions of our past. Hamas is brandishing its arms and eliminating the militias that Israel established and armed for the purpose of challenging its rule

Gantz's model would have worked had all parties set aside political rivalries and been willing to make concessions for the sake of coexistence in Israel. Since we have not gotten that, we should salute Gantz as we observe the political decline of the man who embodies our entire tragedy

Now that the hostages have been rescued and the war ended, it is time to liberate the country from the stranglehold of Netanyahu, his government and the power structure that he built around himself. All the guardians of democracy must rally to this cause
