does anyone really know the names of those who are in the shadows, who act like a shadow government? the politicians are the ‘front men’ following orders from someone? it was difficult to find out who was behind the covid fiasco, only Netanyahu was out there.

The news cycle here in Israel is moving fast, in a turbo-speed crusade to try to take down Netanyahu.
Basically, the ongoing Deep State agenda to take down Netanyahu is similar to the ongoing Deep State agenda in the US to take down Trump, and probably also motivated by an effort to stop Netanyahu from being in power at the same time as President Trump, to prevent the work they would be able to do to together to strengthen Israel's position in the region and the world.
No matter how bad things seem, remember this: a deep state exposed is a deep state that is losing its power and influence, because its success is in being deep and hidden. Once it is no longer hidden, it is on the path to oblivion.
I'm sure we will still have many challenges ahead, both in Israel and the US, in overcoming Israel's Deep State, but hold on to your faith in Hashem. We will overcome it.
While we’re facing enemies like Hamas, Hezbollah, and Iran on the battlefield, we’re also up against a powerful enemy at home—a Deep State within Israel that’s undermining our war effort and targeting Prime Minister Netanyahu and his government. This is more than just politics. *It’s a battle over the very future of Israel.*
Now, let’s talk about what we mean by the “Deep State.” This isn’t some conspiracy—it’s a network of unelected officials embedded in the government, military, intelligence, justice system, and the media, who operate independently from elected leaders. These forces pursue their own agenda and exert influence in ways that block the will of the people. Here in Israel, this Deep State is doing everything it can to stop Netanyahu, weaken his government, and ultimately, undermine our ability to win this existential war.
Look at the blatant double standards in our justice system. Recently, former left-wing activist, turned anti-illegal migrant activist, Sheffi Paz was imprisoned for standing up for her cause. Meanwhile, anti-government protesters—who’ve disrupted public life with extreme hostility and violence, during both the judicial reform protests and this war—walk free.
The hypocrisy is appalling. There is one rule for those who align with the establishment Deep State, another for anyone supporting a proudly Jewish, strong Israel, right-wing ideology. This selective enforcement shows us the justice system, where in Israel no one is elected, isn’t just failing, but allowing itself to be manipulated as a weapon by the Deep State.
As Yitzhak Wasserlauf, an Otzma Yehudit Cabinet minister in the government recently said
“The Israeli public knows that it has a two-tiered justice system. Class A citizens can trample the law brazenly, run amok, paint roads, set property on fire and ruin infrastructure with impunity, while class B “will be persecuted mercilessly for any violation and given 45 days in jail for graffiti.”
Simcha Rothman, chair of the Knesset’s Constitution, Law and Justice Committee and a leader of the judicial reform effort, described a reality in which “in Israel, you’re punished for belonging to the wrong side. If you’re on the right one, you can document yourself spraying graffiti from multiple angles, featuring incitement, knowing you’re safe. Because in Israel, what matters is not what you did, but who you are – which side are you on.”
Then there’s the IDF senior command, which has allowed senior officers who publicly called for the army’s destruction through mass refusal to serve—*even if war broke out*—to stay in their roles without consequence. Yet, Col. Chezi Nechama, an experienced and respected officer who fought in Gaza, was dismissed from his IDF reserve service just for offering constructive criticism on how we could better win this war.
Nechama's punishment is not about a senior IDF command holding people accountable; it’s about punishing anyone who dares question the control of the army by senior officers with a political agenda, even if it costs us valuable soldiers and leadership during this critical time.
And it’s not speculation. Articles printed in establishment media sources have quoted senior officers' complaints that we are losing soldiers lives due to the ideological mindset of the Chief of Staff who doesn’t want Israel to be seen as conquering land. Instead he keeps on sending army forces back and forth into areas already conquered, both in Gaza and Southern Lebanon, which makes it harder for to win this war and keep our losses down.
Senior Israeli journalist Amit Segal had this to say about the behavior of the IDF senior command:
"The IDF spokesman, in an unprecedented act, has been refusing for ten days to respond to a simple question: Is Ron Sharaf, one of the leaders of the [anti-judicial reform] movement who incited reservists to refuse to serve in the IDF, and threatened not to come even if war broke out, still serving in the IDF?
"The reason that the IDF spokesman refuses to respond, in complete violation of his legal and public duty and despite repeated daily requests, is that the IDF is trying to protect Sheraf and hide the fact that he is still serving.
"It is worth noting that at that the same time, the IDF recently dismissed a high ranking officer, Chezi Nechama, due to his constructive criticism, as a civilian, of the conduct of the army in this war.
"Unfortunately, despite countless attempts, the IDF Spokesperson's Unit evades an answer and ignores it, in order to protect the leader of the refusal-to-serve movement, that the Chief of Staff himself defined at the time as a serious threat to security.
"In my personal opinion - this double standard is a little worse than the IDF Chief of Staff’s issue with the Mashiach patch that the IDF soldiers are wearing. Then the heads of the army are surprised about the disappointment voiced against the army. It's a shame."
MK Almog Cohen, from Otzma Yehudit, said : “The Chief of Staff runs the army as if it were a branch of the Brothers in Arms [responsible for leading the movement for refusal to serve in the IDF]. The Chief of Staff, who failed to manage the tragic events on October 7th, and chose to remain silent in the face of the movement for refusal to serve in the IDF that called for the disbanding of the army from within, also made the scandalous decision to remove reserve officer Chezi Nechama from service - a brave IDF commanding officer who dared to criticize the conduct of the army as a civilian. “
"At the same time, the IDF spokesman has been ignoring journalists' questions for ten days about Ron Sharaf, a refusenik from the 'Brothers in Arms' movement, and refuses to answer whether he is still serving in the IDF patrol."
And then there’s the recent so-called “scandal” where an IDF reserve officer and a former spokesperson for the Prime Minister's Office are being held in solitary confinement for allegedly transferring a Hamas document found in Gaza to the Prime Minister’s office. These weren’t battle plans leaked to our enemies; they were Hamas documents found by the IDF in Gaza that the IDF senior command did not pass on to the Prime Minister.
These now-imprisoned people remembered well how the senior IDF command did not upgrade the warnings and indications of Hamas’ infiltration before the horrific morning of Oct. 7th, and they did not want the same thing to happen again to critical information that the Prime Minister and goverment should know about. How can there be anything concerning security that a prime minister is not supposed to know? And, today, these patriotic Israelis are being punished in ways worse than even the Hamas terrorists from Oct. 7th, those murderers that the Supreme Court continually looks after to ensure proper jail conditions.
Meanwhile, senior security officials have been leaking real intelligence to the media, endangering our soldiers and hostages and negotiations for their release. But those leaks—ones that genuinely compromise Israel’s safety—are ignored. The media and the deep state blew up this latest story to create a scandal, all the while protecting those who leak to the press and endanger IDF operations.
Check out this statement from the Prime Minister’s office…
“This is an unprecedented hunting expedition against the Prime Minister's Office in the middle of a war. After a year of the deluge of criminal leaks from the Cabinet discussions and the prisoners-and-missing-persons discussions - which provided valuable intelligence to our enemies - the only two investigations that were opened were directed against the Prime Minister's Office and not against the other leakers, none of whom were investigated, and who caused tremendous damage to the abductees and Israel's security.”
Meanwhile, two additional extremely damaging cases are being swept under the rug by the justice system. The first case is the spy who entered an IDF base on Oct. 7th, just hours after the invasaion, and photographed highly classified materials that he then passed on to senior people. The justice system has placed a gag order on the whole episode and is trying to sweep it under the rug even more by claiming that the spy, a well known activist in the far-left political camp, is not psychologically fit.
Attorney Efraim Dimri, who is working with MK Almog Cohen on this case claims that if/when the public learns about the senior people involved in this case, written up in the indictment that is secret because of the gag order, the Israeli public will be so shocked that it will see to it that the right-wing political parties win more than 90 seats in the upcoming Knesset.
And the second case is the one where the IDF legal unit invented a horrific blood libel against IDF soldiers guarding Hamas terrorists in the Sde Teman prison. Someone, with access, completely fabricated a video that incriminated the IDF soldiers as rapists, and leaked it to the Israeli media. That video did tremendous damage to Israel on the world stage, with hundreds of millions of people seeing it. Still up to today, the justice system has yet to investigate and find out who fabricated the video and who leaked the video to the media.
Both of these cases did tremendous damage to Israel and the war effort.
Another tactic being used to destabilize this government is the manipulation of the haredi draft issue. This is a real societal issue that needs solutions, yes, but instead of addressing it constructively, it’s being exploited to divide the haredi and national-religious sectors and political factions.
Why? So the Deep State can drive a wedge between Netanyahu’s government partners, ultimately weakening the coalition. It’s a classic tactic—divide and conquer—to try to topple this government and disrupt the fight against our enemies.
On top of all this, the Attorney General insists that Prime Minister Netanyahu appear in court *three times a week* for cases that are visibly falling apart for lack of evidence. Can you imagine this happening anywhere else? In the middle of a war, our leader is being dragged away from his duties under the excuse of “security importance.” This isn’t about justice; it’s about trying to drain Netanyahu’s time and energy, distracting him from his essential role in managing a war that threatens Israel’s very existence.
And on top of that, the Attioney General is now saying outright that Minister Ben-Gvir, who the the elite left in Israel hate with a passion, hating the impact he is having even more, should be fired, for nothing illegal. They add that Netanyahu needs to step down as Prime Minister as well, for nothing.
We are literally looking at an attempted political coup that seems to be abetted by the Attorney General, the highest official in the justice system.
And let’s not forget the media’s role. Every night, they host former security has-been officials like Yisrael Ziv and Ehud Barak, along with opposition leaders like Benny Gantz, Gadi Eizenkot, and Yair Lapid. These are the same voices who said, “Don’t enter Gaza, don’t conquer Rafah, don’t go after Hezbollah.” They say we’re losing soldiers, losing the war, calling for a ceasefire before we’ve achieved any of our goals. And, miraculously, coincidentally, these calls to “hold back” just happen to match the demands of the Biden-Harris administration.
Isn’t that interesting? Our own media, backed by the deep state, is demoralizing the nation and aligning with American demands to slow our fight.
And this same media reports all the "scandals" about Netanyahu and the government as if they are the worst things imagineable, only to have to walk them back or let them die off quietly, as each is proven to be total nothing burgers.
As I have explained, this is the Deep State’s war against Israel. They’re holding us back from doing what it takes to win, undermining our leadership, and spreading division. But here’s the truth they can’t change: we *are* winning, and we *will* win. We’ve already cleared large sections of Gaza and Southern Lebanon, moving village by village to secure our land. Our soldiers are achieving incredible things every day, despite the obstacles placed in their way by our enemies and by our own deep state, despite the personal price they bravely pay.
We must stay united, stand by our leadership, and pray for the strength to endure. This battle isn’t just about Hamas, Hezbollah, or Iran—it’s about overcoming those who seek to weaken Israel from within, because unfortunately, what they fear more than our enemies is a proudly Jewish, Jewish state of Israel, connected to our ancestral identity, our Biblical values and even just talk of one day rebuilding our Holy Temple in Jerusalem.
But don’t worry. Good times are ahead. we have a few tough obstacles to overcome, but we are and we will overcome them. Let’s pray, stay strong, and continue forward. *Am Yisrael Chai!*
