Excerpts;
The provocative campaign of the National Union-National Religious Party against my candidacy for the Knesset is, above all, reminiscent of the battered woman. A man beats, abuses and dishonors his wife, who, in great anger, throws him out of the house; yet, he is sure that he will return. He will convince her that he is the best husband, that there can be no one else. Perhaps he will bring her perfume or a flower; he might also explain that beatings are necessary and part of reality. In fact, most women are appeased, make up with their husbands and expect a honeymoon, but he barely walks over the doorstep and already he’s raising his hand against her.
In an insulting and brilliant definition made by Shimon Peres, during the days when the National Union and National Religious Party were part of the Sharon government, he said it all: I am happy that the Right is being stripped of its ideology and is implementing the plans of the Left.
Peres and Yossi Beilin rubbed their hands together with glee, with admiration for the leadership of Sharon and with utter contempt for the so-called Right. Sharon, for his part, enjoyed the quiet and total lack of opposition at a time when the representatives of the Right were hanging on to their ministerial seats, imprisoned by his government even as they were knowing and willing accomplices to the government’s plans for the expulsion.
The failure of the struggle against the dismantling of Gush Katif and its destruction down to its very foundations has, for some reason, not led those responsible to draw conclusions. Tommy Lapid failed and went home, Yossi Sarid also retired, but for the public servants of the National Union-National Religious Party, along with the Judea, Samaria and Gaza Council, it’s business as usual. The same players playing the same game and quarreling among themselves, with no regrets or admissions of guilt.
