I'll start with full disclosure: I want Channel 10 to be closed. Yes. I want 1,000 Comverse employees to be treated the same as 2,000 Channel 10 employees. I want a commercial company to be run as such, even if it was the one illegally elected to run the country.
And yes, I know that several million were deposited in the bank (after the expiration of the time limit; "bureaucracy" they call it), and I also know that the Minister of Communications (hereinafter referred to as Bibi) is not interested in interfering in the decision of the members of the Second Authority Council. That's it.
This is where - some might say as usual - the Attorney General comes in. The second authority's announcement reads: "As a result, the attorney general determined that the government must bring forward a bill to extend the franchise under the terms of Channel 10's license by 6 months.".
And I, a snob like me, am always caught off guard by trivialities: "The advisor determined that the government should bring a bill," again? Yehuda Weinstein, a miserable bureaucrat - chosen by five people, only one of whom comes from the political system, at least three of whom belong overwhelmingly to the leftist elite - instructs the government?!
I have a hard time believing the words I'm saying. The advisor is instructing the government to bring forward a specific bill, what is it? That will allow a commercial company that has never met its obligations to continue operating? Does that make sense?
Even if we ignore the brazen intervention, which claims that Bibi cannot do nothing during an election period - even though he would not have acted differently at any other time - and must act against his political camp; I would rather ask about the name of the position "Attorney General.".
What is a consultant? Here's Wikipedia: "A person with expertise and experience in a particular field, who provides advice to decision-makers who need knowledge in the consultant's field of expertise." What a passage, and I thought that a consultant might take authority from the manager and determine facts on the ground according to his own opinion.
And finally: the Attorney General acquired his veto power over government decisions through a High Court decision of September 8, 1993, and the words of the Sages (Shabbat, 34:1) about those women who 'stir up each other' are already well known.
