Israel's Freedom Convoy: "Take Back the (Steering) Wheel"

15 Adar Alef 5782, Shushan Purim Qatan | ט''ו אדר א' ה''תשפ''ב, שושן פורים קטן



I didn't post on time for the first day of the convoy protesting Israel's COVID-19 mandates and all that goes with them, but they're still there...so here's some of the record: 

Arutz Sheva: Israel Freedom Convoy heads for Jerusalem. 

Reuters: Israelis mount their own COVID "Freedom Convoy"

Jewish Press: Freedom Convoy: Israel

JNS: Israeli COVID 'Freedom Convoy' takes to the streets

Adina Kutnicki: Israelis Join Freedom Convoy

Israel Video Network: 20,000 Israeli Trucks and Family Vehicles Take Part in Global Freedom Convoy

HaAretz (in a rare non-premium article): Israeli 'Freedom Convoy' Blocks Main Highway in Protest of COVID Measures

US News and World Report: Israelis Mount Their Own COVID 'Freedom Convoy'

And this one, which I think is the clearest one of them all:

Freedom Convoy Israel 2022, published on two sites:  United Pushback | Brownstone Institute

Many of these articles list the goals of the convoy in Israel. They are:

  1. The termination of the government’s Covid policies
  2. The return to normalcy for all Israeli citizens
  3. The opening up of all businesses
  4. Full transparency in the disclosure of all government contracts and protocols- including the infamous Pfizer Covid vaccine contract. 
  5. Respect for indivdual privacy (arising from the scandal of the government and police using the spy software, Pegasus, to spy on ordinary citizens)
  6. Reaffirmation that all human beings are equal and have constitutional rights

No one has explained what the "wheel" in the slogan refers to, so I put it in the title. Another term can be helm.

Like this one, a nice mix of old and new:

    Interesting, the details that are presented on different platforms. To wit:

    On Israel Unwired: The Truth about What the Freedom Convoy Protest is Really Doing...

    while on my phone it appears that Canadian PM Justin Trudeau has ordered banks to close accounts of those who supported the truckers financially, and even wants to install EMF weapons to attack Ottawa protestors. I quote from the post (no links because the way to do this is beyond me):

    "Same weapon Electromagnetic energy technology that has been used in the Meron Israel disaster in Lag Ba Omer 2021."

    Are there two internets or am I just falling behind? Or are there at least two parts to this story and they're not both represented on one network?

    Many thanks to anyone who can establish the facts here, in advance.
