Netanyahu wants an emergency government of Jews only<\/h3>\n

Afif Abu Much<\/strong><\/a> March 16, 2020<\/p>\n

Although the coronavirus doesn\u2019t distinguish between Jews and Arabs, Prime \"\"Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has been doing so while calling on Blue and White leaders to join him in an “emergency government.”<\/em><\/p>\n

Citing the current coronavirus outbreak, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu remarked on March 12, \u201cAn emergency government was established 53 years ago in Israel. I call for the establishment of a similar government now. This evening.\u201d He then called on Blue and White Chairman Benny Gantz to join him in the endeavor. Gantz tweeted in response, \u201cGiven the situation, we are prepared to discuss the creation of a broad national emergency government<\/a>, which would include representatives of all parties in the House.\u201d In other words, the government he envisioned should include the Arab Joint List. Netanyahu later clarified his position, asserting, \u201cSupporters of terrorism cannot be part of the government<\/a>, whether under routine circumstances or in times of emergency.\u201d<\/p>\n

In short, Netanyahu is adopting the same tack he took after the September elections. He continues to paint the Joint List, which won 15 Knesset seats in this month’s election, as ineligible to participate in the political arena. Netanyahu makes a point of calling Arab Knesset members \u201csupporters of terrorism,\u201d to try to prevent them from gaining legitimacy and become an integral part of Israeli politics, which is best characterized as Jewish.<\/p>\n

In fact, the entire right-wing\/ultra-Orthodox bloc that Netanyahu leads acts as if all the Arab parties’ Knesset members are not part of Israeli politics at all. In other words, the Knesset consists of 105 members, not 120. Netanyahu realizes that once the Arab parties become regular partners in the formation of coalitions and governments, the right could lose its chance to head the government. At the same time, the impression emerging across the political spectrum suggests that the center-left has no chance of forming a government<\/a> without the help of the Arabs. <\/strong><\/p>\n

So, although Netanyahu may use his frequent press conferences these days to say that the coronavirus does not distinguish between Jews and Arabs, he definitely distinguishes between Jewish Knesset members and citizens and their Arab counterparts <\/strong>and seeks to form an emergency government for Jews only. Gantz provided a clear picture of this March 14 when he wrote on Facebook that Netanyahu had proposed that he join an emergency government<\/a> that \u201cwould not distinguish between right and left, religious and secular, Jews and Arabs.\u2026 I suggested that our negotiating teams meet to discuss the necessity and possibility of forming a broad government<\/a> for the next little while.\u2026 I have yet to receive a serious response to my offer.\u201d<\/p>\n

Is Netanyahu exploiting the coronavirus outbreak<\/a> for political purposes? Has he found a way to continue serving as prime minister without having won 61 seats in three consecutive elections? According to Moshe Ya\u2019alon, Blue and White’s number three, the answer is absolutely yes. On March 14, Ya\u2019alon lashed out in a tweet condemning Netanyahu, charging the \u201ccynical use of the coronavirus crisis for the personal political needs<\/a> of a criminal defendant about to stand trial.\u201d<\/p>\n

Beyond the political maneuvering, there are several other issues that must be addressed: Is the Arab public prepared for the spread of the coronavirus? Are authorities helping it prepare? On March 8, Knesset member Sami Abou Shahadeh of the Joint List demanded that the Ministry of Health make information available in Arabic<\/a>. The ministry responded positively and even launched a Telegram channel<\/a> on the topic. Yousef Jabareen, also of the Joint List, later warned the Education Minister Rafi Peretz on March 11, \u201cSchools in the Arab community are not prepared for the emergency situation<\/a> resulting from the coronavirus crisis.\u201d<\/p>\n

In a conversation with Al-Monitor, Shuaa Massarweh Mansour, mayor of the Arab town of Taibeh, explained, \u201cThe government\u2019s absence is having a direct impact on the functioning of the local authorities. In terms of the coronavirus, there is a lack of clarity about it. We took several steps as a local government without waiting for decisions by headquarters [national government]. Schools in Taibeh are prepared logistically for distance learning in the hope that the systems put in place by the Ministry of Education do not collapse.\u201d<\/p>\n
