I propose that coalition parties immediately appear before the public and announce that they constitute an ad hoc confederation of factions uniting into one block under several banners, such as legally pledge never to join a government headed by Benjamin Netanyahu.
The plan included, among other things, detecting and magnifying disputes between coalition members, receiving information from "whistleblowers," and creating a legislative logjam that would undermine the government's ability to pass laws.
Building a broad coalition is important because being in Ra'am's hands on one end and in the hands of Smotrich and the Haredim on the other, is not good.
There are three-four mandates that the liberals give to the various political parties that are borderline between the camps. A leader who prioritizes liberal policies will win them all for his camp.
Prime Minister Yair Lapid's calls to strive for "the common good" are meant to legitimize his intention to form a government with the Joint Arab List.
Joint Arab List factions Balad, Ta'al, and Hadash parties boast of holding primaries, but their mechanisms prevent new people from entering the race, meaning the results are predictable.
A situation in which Meretz takes from Labor, or vice versa, and Yesh Atid tries to draw votes away from them both would be the worst possible thing for the pro-peace, anti-Netanyahu camp.
Over the years, small right-wing parties that failed to make it past the minimum electoral threshold have done considerable damage to the national camp.
Beware false election narratives from both the left and right. Do not let radical electioneering disfigure a noble reality.
