We have ascended the path from destruction to resarrection and have arrived at Herzel’s tomb and the cemetery for heads of state.

When I told a friend about our journey he suggested we pass via the Knesset. I replied that this is a journey of value and tradition and unfortunately the Knesset amounts to neither.

Even here – the cemetery for heads of state – politicians who do not meet criteria have sneaked their way in. Even in a place that should be at the heart of consensus – politics shows its ugly sides.
