From the moment the legislative attempts to change the regime began, the politicians from the coalition and their allies in the media tried to disconnect the purpose of the protest from the protest. The new stop in these attempts is the claim that the protest is waging a religious war against the religious ultra-Orthodox, etc. Here it should be said that religious Jews who are knowledgeable in the Torah and the laws of Judaism, are not only among the ultra-Orthodox and those who wear religious clothing, but on the contrary, millions of believers are hidden among the people of Israel and in protest anyway. This disconnection of the purpose of the protest from the protest, allowed these people in politics and the media, to place the actions of the coalition and the protest on both sides of a barricade of a legitimate political struggle. Because if the purpose of the protest was mentioned, which is the popular opposition to turning the regime in Israel into a dictatorship and tattooing the founding document on which Israel was founded, the Declaration of Independence, then it would be impossible to put a legitimate political position in front of it, or a dramatic emotional declaration, and it was necessary to tell the truth, that the position which Against the purpose of the protest is the illegitimate attempt to overthrow the regime in Israel; An attempt, one of whose final goals is clear from the breaking of the military structure and the de facto inclusion of Bezalel Smotrich in the chain of command of the IDF above the head of the General of the Central Command; (A structure that, if it had reached judicial review, would probably have been disqualified. But the court cannot make political policy decisions, but only review them, since it is not a decision-making body, and if such a case does not reach its review in a petition, such a discussion cannot take place).

The protest is not being held for the sake of protest, and not as a political barricade, but out of a firm, unequivocal and irrevocable opposition to the change of the regime in Israel, and the change of the genetic code enshrined in the Declaration of Independence, and from the opposition to actions of a dictatorial nature, for example the annexation of the West Bank without its Palestinian inhabitants, which in the current structure, or in the illegal fragment of the current military structure, have a high chance of turning out to be war crimes; And also out of opposition to the actions of ultra-Orthodox leaders who are among the main thinkers of the legislation against the regime, which humiliates the IDF and its hundreds of thousands of soldiers throughout all of Israel's wars, in their opposition to members of their communities going to the battlefield under the hollow argument of learning Torah, as if the people of Israel did not learn Torah against all The difficulties during the 70 generations since the third exile, and as if the fathers of the East in Judaism, whose masses of descendants are now marching in the streets in this 39th week, did not write the heart of Jewish religious thought in Babylon despite the difficulties that stood in their way.
