Had the story not leaked, it could have been another routine story about a scolding call, if you will, between the prime minister and his deputy. And yet it remains "among friends".
But the content of the conversation, at its very existence was leaked to the media. Someone made sure that it would leak. There is no doubt that that person is not the Minister of Interior and Deputy Prime Minister Eli Yishai.
The story begins with Yishai's applicable statements in the media. The first of which was presented by Channel 2 commentator Amnon Abramovich, as "the record and off the record."
"Deputy Prime Minister and ninth Member, clarified that the purpose of the operation is to return Gaza to the Middle Ages, destroying the infrastructure of water, electricity, roads, sidewalks, transport and communications, and only then the land will be quiet for the next 40 years."
"He was awake when he spoke to you?" - Asks someone at the studio.
Yes, was the reply.
Later - in an interview with Ilana Dayan on the same channel, Yishai said that they should continue the operation until the deterrent returns to a significant capability. "You cannot restore peace without deterrence. We prepared an extensive ground operation. We need to do things so difficult and painful that Hamas and other terrorist organizations in Gaza will think a hundred times before they shoot a mortar shell or rocket. When you hit them in infrastructure and roads and public buildings and the homes of terrorists, they will think a hundred times before each attack."
"There is no need to hurt innocent people, that are what all terrorist organizations are trying to do, but we need to lead to destruction and the destruction of large infrastructure, so that they will be busy in the coming years with rubble and building destruction, and not on attacks against us. I do not know of any state willing to experience this experience every Monday and Thursday.
"Ultimately the solution is political but once we get their deterrent and they understand that we will not continue to our agenda for even one mortar shell, the next round will recede. I do not want another round, I want to stop suffering and to calm the citizens of the south and therefore need to restore deterrence. Who of the world leaders would allow shooting at his state? We reached the moment of truth and the need to return to peace."
Yishai on the state affairs: "instigator and inciter sows hatred and fear"
Even if Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu thought, those things are too hard to digest, especially as a center person (a two-state solution), one should have worried about not allowing the conversation to the minister to leak. Whether the call was leaked due to irresponsibility - for that there is a lie detector, which has moved people from the Bureau directly to their home.
Or maybe it was convenient for him, Netanyahu that the content of the conversation leak? Hard to believe, but who knows.
"The conversation was not directed personally against Yishai," say associates. "It was a cabinet meeting that lasted until the early morning hours when Netanyahu told ministers, all of them, to stick to the messages." Those were his words. So perhaps it is true that Yishai dared to say what others did not, but certainly not as rebuke, as different media rushed to publish ".
When I'm trying to figure out who had an interest to leak things, and the way they were leaked, they do not elaborate. Only one they are willing to commit to me, the leak did not come from the direction of the Prime Minister, or from his office. On the contrary, there is a deep friendship between Netanyahu and Yishai.
Since there are no less than nine at the nine's, by cleaning those years several other suspects remain. There is need to check if any of them, for example, do not really like the competition which has risen right, or any other motive.
In this context it is hard to ignore a 'not nice' article written in the newspaper Ha'aretz. First note the title: "Minister for incitement affairs" No less.
And that's not all, read the contents of the article, an editorial.
"The minister, whose party represents a dark culture of the middle Ages, incites to return to those days to Gaza. Actually the head of the party, who a large part of their elected and the electorate do not serve in the IDF, preaches to the IDF to get into Gaza, to kill and be killed even more."
"Yishai is not the only one with radical proposals; Transport Minister Yisrael Katz, and other officials expressed an intolerable manner, but Yishai is the most prominent as the Deputy Prime Minister."
"Yishai expressed it only to please the voters. That's what he always did: Incites and instigates, sowing hatred and fear, is against immigrants from Africa, homosexuals and other minorities in society. The society should have thrown up Yishai long ago. The Prime Minister is also held responsible: he should have called his deputy to order. Yishai's voice calls the sound of the government and the sound of country.
"Since 1948, Gaza is a disaster area. Poverty, congestion, emissions and misery characterizes the lives of its residents. Add the fact that they also have prolonged occupation by Israel, detachment from the West Bank and the siege and blockade. The vulnerable civilian infrastructure which is poor anyway, is not just inhuman and a war crime but will also not bring any benefit to Israel. Israel tried it more than once in the past: destroyed roads and bridges, destroyed power stations and water reservoirs and turned the lives of 1.5 million people in Gaza into a living hell. The outcome: Hamas only grew stronger, residents suffering worsened, and with it the hatred of Israel. Israel should be interested in the opposite: Gaza's prosperity. Therefore whoever offers now "return the Gaza Strip to the Middle Ages" is a depressed politician and bad adviser."
And when Ha'aretz condemns, you instantly become a labeled politician rightist. The big question is with whom it may interfere.
