"There are two plagues that are challenging the very fabric of society at this moment. One is the coronavirus, which has killed over 5 million people around the globe, the other, has also shaken the world as we know it — it’s the disease of political polarization,” Bennett said.
“Both coronavirus and polarization can erode public trust in our institutions, both can paralyze nations. If left unchecked, their effects on society can be devastating. In Israel, we faced both, and rather than accept them as a force of nature, we stood up, took action, and we can already see the horizon."
