Situa\u00adti\u00adon<\/strong><\/p>\n The new Israe\u00adli govern\u00adment, passed by the majo\u00adri\u00adty of one vote only in the Knes\u00adset, has not got an easy posi\u00adti\u00adon and we are waiting to see how these repre\u00adsen\u00adta\u00adti\u00adves of various parties will mana\u00adge to move the coun\u00adtry forward, espe\u00adci\u00adal\u00adly since the only stated goal of the oppo\u00adsi\u00adti\u00adon is the removal of this govern\u00adment. Even bills that stem from the old oppo\u00adsi\u00adti\u00adon govern\u00adment are now cate\u00adgo\u00adri\u00adcal\u00adly rejec\u00adted. It\u2019s not about the cause, it\u2019s just about power. It is precis\u00ade\u00adly this high-handed thin\u00adking that has para\u00adly\u00adzed the coun\u00adtry for many years and we hope that the promi\u00adse of the new govern\u00adment: \u201cWe came to work\u201d will soon bear visi\u00adble fruit and peop\u00adle will regain confi\u00addence in poli\u00adtics. The urgen\u00adtly needed budget, two years over\u00addue, will be the first real touch\u00adstone for the new govern\u00adment. In the past, friend\u00adship ended all too quick\u00adly when the funds were distri\u00adbu\u00adted. May it succeed this time.<\/p>\n The situa\u00adti\u00adon with the Gaza Strip and the rela\u00adti\u00adonship between Arab and Jewish peop\u00adle within Isra\u00adel remain tense. It is the radi\u00adcal groups on both sides that keep heating up the mood and rioting enti\u00adre cities and villa\u00adges. The often extre\u00adme\u00adly tough Israe\u00adli poli\u00adce and border poli\u00adce do not make friends either.<\/p>\n Fort\u00adu\u00adna\u00adte\u00adly, there are a lot of peop\u00adle who speak out in public for a respectful coexis\u00adtence and work toge\u00adther and who are given the space that is so important for this in the media.<\/p>\n After only two weeks (after a year) we were able to look into the unmas\u00adked face again, we are now hearing about the \u201eIndi\u00adan delta virus\u201d, a high\u00adly conta\u00adgious versi\u00adon of the Coro\u00adna, accor\u00adding to the media, which main\u00adly school child\u00adren in two small Israe\u00adli towns fell ill with but also spreads from there. New Coro\u00adna measu\u00adres are now being discus\u00adsed and the masks must be worn again insi\u00adde closed rooms. The airport, where many peop\u00adle arri\u00adve and now also want to fly away during the holi\u00addays, is mentio\u00adned again and again as one of the places where coro\u00adna muta\u00adti\u00adons can be intro\u00addu\u00adced too easi\u00adly from abroad. Strict secu\u00adri\u00adty measu\u00adres should be put back into force and a binding quaran\u00adti\u00adne peri\u00adod for arri\u00adving trave\u00adlers could be part of this again. Toge\u00adther with many peop\u00adle, we also hope that the vacci\u00adna\u00adti\u00adons also offer protec\u00adtion against the muta\u00adti\u00adons and that we do not face any new large wave of infec\u00adtion in the country.<\/p>\n The summer holi\u00addays in Isra\u00adel, which will soon begin, will proba\u00adb\u00adly help ensu\u00adre that no further school child\u00adren are direct\u00adly affected.<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row _builder_version=\u201e4.9.7\u201d _module_preset=\u201edefault\u201d][et_pb_column type=\u201e4_4\u201d _builder_version=\u201e4.9.7\u201d _module_preset=\u201edefault\u201d][et_pb_text _builder_version=\u201e4.9.7\u201d _module_preset=\u201edefault\u201d]<\/p>\n Support work<\/strong><\/p>\n An inten\u00adsi\u00adve month of support work without a single person suffe\u00adring from coro\u00adna at Lifegate is behind us and we are reli\u00ade\u00adved and grateful.
