What The Protesters Should Be Doing (Instead of Protesting)

In a nutshell - bring people from various sectors together to air all our grievances and come up with solutions together.

The longer we put this off, the weaker our economy will become. We're already seeing the first signs on a daily basis now:

Battling inflation, Bank of Israel hikes interest rates to 4.25%, highest since 2008

Israel shekel nears 3-year low as judicial overhaul spooks investors

Intel Slashes Dividend 66% to Lowest Payout in 16 Years - they have 14K employees in Israel.

Let's Fix This Together

Despite all the self-righteousness we're seeing everywhere, these are just small examples of what we're doing to ourselves. No one is doing it to us, except us. We're currently at a very timely and critical moment because it's still possible to correct this distortion.

The more our disputes get out of control and pass into foreign hands, the more trouble we'll invite on our people. Such huge trouble that no one could even imagine where it could lead to. No one wants to talk about it, or even think about it.

The general system is always more creative and surprising than a private system, meaning our individual ego.

For Those Who Want Change

The solution is very simple: the protesters should use their funding to launch a nation-wide referendum, which ideally would be conducted in person as part of series of uplifting gatherings throughout the country.

They shouldn't expect to be any smarter before addressing the people. Why? Because the general system is always more creative and surprising than a private system, meaning our individual ego.

In the first stage of such a gathering we present the situation and gather ideas from these discussions of random people coming together, to talk about what's on their hearts. The idea is to hear from all the citizens of Israel from the South to the North.

In addition to the "referendum," which is a very important thing, we're bringing people closer together. As anyone who is married knows, when we pause to speak in a civilized manner during a heated argument, we get a completely different perspective.

This strategy is for people who actually want to generate a positive change in society. The protesters could use their headquarters, resources and volunteers to organize these nation-wide surveys.

Ideally they would invest their time hearing the people like this otherwise we'll know that everything they've been talking about is an absolute lie. if they're not prepared to invest in bridging the gaps between us, and insist on risking our economy - which directly impacts Israel's security and independence, it's a sign that their entire "struggle" is pure hypocrisy and deceit. None of it was the truth.
