<p style="font-weight: 400;">The Israeli Left, intent on finding a way to topple Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s right-wing government, tried to implement a labor strike that would have crippled the country while it is at war with the terrorist groups Hamas and Hezbollah and suffered a disastrous defeat.</p>
<p style="font-weight: 400;">Histadrut chairman Arnon Bar-David had called for a strike to start on Sunday, ostensibly because he argued that the government was not doing enough to bring hostages back  — a spurious claim as the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) has conducted successful operations to rescue hostages and Netanyahu has repeatedly accepted cease-fire proposals which Hamas has always rejected — but in reality was an attempt to bring the right-wing government down.</p>
<p style="font-weight: 400;">But Israeli Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich, with the consent of Netanyahu, filed an injunction with Israel’s labor court to block the strike. The Gvura Forum, which represents family members of fallen soldiers, filed a similar injunction.</p>

<p style="font-weight: 400;">“The court ruled soon after hearing the case that since the strike was &#8216;a protest&#8217; by nature and not related to workers’ rights, it needed to have been coordinated in advance and lasted for a limited period of a few hours,” the Jerusalem Post <a href="https://www.jpost.com/breaking-news/article-817363">reported</a>. “The strike was announced less than 12 hours prior to its start and was not limited, and was therefore illegal, the court ruled. The court added that the ruling was only relevant to the Histadrut and that other unions as well as business forums were not included.”</p>
<p style="font-weight: 400;">“The days where someone harnesses the power of organized work to advance political interests” were over, “especially during a war and when it serves the interests of Hamas and [its leader Yahya] Sinwar.”</p>
<p style="font-weight: 400;">“A large number of municipalities and regional councils did not join Monday&#8217;s strike,” Israel National News <a href="https://www.israelnationalnews.com/news/395592">noted</a>.</p>
<p style="font-weight: 400;">&#8220;Bar David&#8217;s political strike failed. We came to cry the cry of the nation and to tell Bar David: &#8216;You failed! Go home! We will not allow you to cause any more harm to civilians whose only sin is that they think differently than you. It inspires respect to see that most of the municipal leaders opposed your recklessness. The people of Israel will not agree to accept dictators in the Histadrut!'&#8221; Im Tirtzu chairman Shay Rosengarten stated.</p>
<p style="font-weight: 400;">Former Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Barak leads opposition to Netanyahu’s government. Barak has demonstrated his contempt for Israel’s most sacred places before and the Jewish connection to the land of Israel for decades; in June, the Israel State Archives released material that revealed that during the 2000 negotiations with terrorist Palestine Liberation Organization leader Yasser Arafat, Barak was ready to give up Israeli sovereignty over parts of the Old City of Jerusalem and the Temple Mount, the holiest place in Judaism.</p>

<p style="font-weight: 400;">“At the Camp David talks five months earlier, Barak had already offered the Palestinian Authority control over territories that went far beyond what most Israeli military strategists believed the nation could give up and still retain defensible borders,” the Jewish News Syndicate <a href="https://www.jns.org/jns/israel/23/7/19/303916/">noted</a>, adding that U.S. envoy Dennis Ross admitted, “Barak’s government … formally accepted ideas that would effectively divide East Jerusalem, end the IDF’s presence in the Jordan Valley, and produce a Palestinian state in roughly 97 percent of the West Bank [as well as all of Gaza].”</p>
<p style="font-weight: 400;">In January. Barak co-signed a<a href="https://www.nytimes.com/2024/06/26/opinion/congress-netanyahu-gaza-war.html"> letter</a> published in The New York Times urging Congress to rescind their offer for Netanyahu to speak before them. In June, he wrote an <a href="applewebdata://2C1B764D-80DB-4D5E-8056-C6102B0C36BC/We%20need%20to%20immediately%20replace%20this%20failed%20government">opinion piece</a> in the hard-Left publication Ha’aretz stating, “Israel is being led by a government and a prime minister who are patently unfit for their offices.”</p>
