A General Strike has begun today in Israel, bringing the country to a standstill & there appears to be no way out for Netanyahu over it.
Right, so Israel shuts down to oust Netanyahu, is this fanciful thinking or is this genuinely what is about to happen? Well Israeli commentators are saying right now in light of this move that either a ceasefire is agreed by the end of this week, or Netanyahu’s government falls or possibly even both.
Israel has today begun a General Strike, the people of Israel who are sick and tired of Benjamin Netanyahu and his government putting their own plans before rescuing their hostages and it is only in those terms that the people of Israel have gone on strike, following the killing by IDF forces as many believe, still to be definitively proven, of 6 Hamas held Israeli hostages in Rafah. For 11 months Israeli people along with the rest of the world, have watched Benjamin Netanyahu pretty much obsess far more over his desire to commit war crimes against the Palestinian people than try and rescue those hostages Hamas took on the night of October 7th. Time after time Netanyahu has scuppered peace talks, has changed the remit of negotiators so that the talks that would see their loved ones returned to them fail, for no more reason than keeping Netanyahu in power, reliant on far right coalition to remain there who will not accept any cessation of hostilities. It’s a government that has been running in the sole interests of Netanyahu for too long, this conflict goes on and on for exactly that reason and now enough Israeli have wised up to it, the country has just shut down saying enough is enough. Is this finally the end therefore of Benjamin Netanyahu?
Right, so General Strike time. Either Benjamin Netanyahu agrees to a ceasefire deal to the release of all hostages held by Hamas and end the war, or the country remains shut down. The power all workers have to take on a despotic government that doesn’t work in their interests.
Last night over 300,000 people gathered in Tel Aviv, one of the largest anti-government demonstrations held since October 7th – and there have been several - to once again, as they have done on numerous occasions before, to demand a ceasefire and a hostage deal. They know it is Netanyahu blocking the deal, we all know it is Netanyahu blocking the deal, Israeli media itself has been so fed up with it, even they have published the details of how Netanyahu has been stymying negotiations, changing the remit, demanding more in exchange for less, even as Hamas have agreed to ceasefire proposals themselves, in one instance giving Netanyahu everything he wanted, just to prove he would screw up the deal himself and still not agree to it, which of course he did. He cannot agree to a ceasefire if he doesn’t want his government to fall and himself be dumped out of power. His far right coalition partners won’t allow it, they’ll pull the plug on him if he does. All of this has made Israeli allies look all the wetter when they’ve stood there at a podium bleating about a deal on the table and making demands of Hamas to accept terms, when they have previously and they won’t waste their time agreeing to matters they know Israel enters into each time on bad faith.

►ABOUT ME:
Hi, I'm Damien Willey. I'm a former welder, but now I'm a writer, blogger, vlogger and presenter and interviewer with Socialist Telly (Please do go and visit what we all get up to on [ Ссылка ])
I'm an unpaid carer for my disabled wife and daughter and as such we know all too well the difficulties that associated with that living in Tory Britain and I personally believe the answer lies in socialism.
This channel, along with my other social media act as outlets to push back against that, to demand better of our politicians and leaders, to pull apart the media spin that supports them and the way the UK is run and to give a voice, to the voiceless.
