Omer Patsinash-Waldman, a reserve combat soldier and candidate for the 'Zehut' party, argues in an opinion piece that the younger generation in Israel has proven its willingness to sacrifice for the state since October 7, but now demands to know for what purpose. She criticizes the 'conflict management' approach that led to disaster and calls for a military decision instead of managing the enemy. At the same time, she argues that the state should free citizens from the shackles of bureaucracy, taxation, and government control, especially in housing. The article emphasizes the need to change the relationship between the state and its citizens, granting trust to citizens as was given to them during the war. The author concludes that the generation has fulfilled its part of the contract with the state, and now it is the state's turn to win the wars and enable a free life.
