Missiles Over Israel, But Netanyahu Doesn't Care — My City Does
לסימה מעיריית ת"א אכפת ממני. לנתניהו לא
Summary
As missiles strike across Israel and roughly a third of citizens lack any form of shelter, a Tel Aviv municipality representative called the author to ask how she was doing — something the national government has failed to do. While the treasury offers no relief for struggling businesses, coalition lawmakers are urgently pushing ahead with judicial overhaul legislation, disconnected from everyday Israelis' fears. The author contrasts this local human touch with the indifference of Prime Minister Netanyahu.
