Hi,
The protest seems to spread as the Hi-tech protest and bankers are starting to talk against it. The Hi-tech by small sporadic protests of workers mainly in Tel-Aviv. But more important is what the CEO and owners of the Hi-tech companies and the banks are saying even in closed rooms.
Funny is it maybe, those are some of the people we were protesting against in 2011 as thier companies were, and still is, causing many of the high costs of living in Israel. For the moment are on our side.
The massage is the same as what Dr. Ido Baum explained (in Hebrew) about football: if you change the rules after the game has started and during it – no one will play with you (in a direct analogy to the juridical reform Bibi and Levin wish to have). Meaning investment money will start to be pulled out from the banks and Hi-tech companies and workers will go out and stop opening new branches here.
Meanwhile, it seems we are on the edge of a wave of terror:
7 were murdered (3 more injured) in a terror attack on Friday night in Jerusalem, and 2 more were injured in a terror attack in Jerusalem today. The attacks came after 10 were killed at Jenin in the west bank this week in an IDF activity to stop the organization of terror attacks.
It might be the cause why there were only 40K in Tel-Aviv and in total. But it seems the protest getting wider: 13K in Haifa, a couple of thousand in Jerusalem, Beer Sheva, Nes Ziona, and Hertzlia.
Take Care
