Why Israel Faces a New Blockade

Each sector of the population has its own weaknesses. The ultra-Orthodox rabbis have their own schools and their students are de facto exempt from military service. So why not have your own laws in the fight against Corona? Ali Sallam, mayor of Nazareth, Arabia, also has his own standards: “I am a politician and I have to show up at the weddings of supporters, even if there are more than 1,000 guests.”

There is another way: some rabbis follow the rules of the Ministry of Health and close their seminars against the will of “their” leadership.

Arab mayors, whose cities were particularly affected by the first wave of the Crown, are remarkably strict about enforcing the rules in their cities. Without this being clearly noticeable in the statistics. Overall, the death rate from infection in Israel, 0.6 percent, is much lower than the high number of infections suggests. Hospital occupancy has increased, but far from the critical boiling point. Another decision is much more important these days: The attorney general must decide soon on the authority of Netanyahu, who has been accused of corruption and fraud.
