Government announcement from Buzzy
•
by BuzzyTheCat
Good evening Israel,
I had tried my hardest to not announce this. Not because Sadeh or I have done anything wrong, but because I did not want to cast any doubt on our interm president Gzen. Sadeh and I have been working friends for three months now. Before Israel was even liberated Sadeh messaged me about running the IDF. In the following months I created the Israeli military, recruited strong commanders such as CJ Will Win, became a three time congressmen, donated nearly every dime of gold I owned, and generally done everything I could do to help support Israel.
It is because of my track record of looking out for Israel to the best of my abilities, my record of being trusted with government funds, and my vast military and foreign experience that Sadeh again contacted me when he left office. I was given the keys to the Official Bank of Israel and Israel’s Finance Department along with a simple message, (paraphrased) “keep Israel safe”. For about three days now, this is what I have done. I have been keeping watchful eye on the monetary market, managed the government companies, and fulfilled my duties as General of the IDF. (including appointing two new squad leaders)
I at first simply wanted to stay behind the scenes, do my job, and keep quiet like I have in the past. However due to increasing public unrest over the country not having a president, not knowing who to take a lead from, and from general uncertainty of the future, it has now become mandatory that I now step out of the shadows. I am truly sorry to anyone who takes offense to my actions. I had no intentions of causing trouble or slandering anyone’s name by my actions. However Israel comes first, always will she come first.
On a semi-related side note, I would also like to announce my official candidacy for President of Israel on the July 2nd ballot. Platform and cabinet articles will follow in the days leading up to the campaign. For now, I have more important work to do.
Thank you for your time my friends,

Buzzy, you'll have my vote next elections. You definitely deserve the presidency more than anyone here.
Good luck to you and thank you for all of the hard work you're doing.
cant be anyone better for the job.
Go Buzzy! You were just looking out for Israel!
I understand the motives behind this move. However with due respect this should have been communicated to gzen in private so that his hopes were not built up and then squashed, he started appointing people such as myself to help keep israel safe because we did not( meaning me, the appointed minister of foreign affairs jamarcus, and apparantly gzen did not know this was taking place. You should have came forward immediatly or Sadeh should have presented this to the people of Israel up front instead of handeling the situation this way. It would almost appear as I stated before that this was planned behind the scenes, as this is classic of the Sadeh administration as a whole. Looking out for Israel is one thing, Grasping power and blocking any attempt to let other peoples ideas move this country forward is another.
Good luck 🙂
My concerns still stand for the current crisis in government though. I know you said you are not that concerned and that it will work out but what body or has given Gzen legitimacy as interim president? As far as I can see at this moment no one but you can be Sadeh`s successor because he named you it and is still de jure president.
The situation is chaotic at best and we need to settle on who exactly is going to lead us for the next 25 days before an election and who is going to have the authority to delegate jobs. It is very admirable people want to do their all for eIsrael, but they must be given the authority to do so by eIsraelis or else we have no organizational control over foreign or economic policy because there is no leadership on where we need to go.
and to add to that note, In theory and actuality, unfortunatly you are still not the leader at this time, this plan was a failure on Sadeh's part, a blimish on his history and a blimish on the IWP. Shame has shown its face. Understand that this is not a personal attack, this is what it is and the truth shall be known regarding this plan.
Jeff said it well as well.

It started in this thread. I take full responsibility in bringing forward the question. I agree buzzy should have told people about this situation and what was happening. At the same time, a President needs to have legitimacy from some source to do his job properly. Not have one guy running most of government and another doing another part. Until 30 minutes ago people spoke of cabinets ministers that I didn`t even know were selected. This should also be communicated. We need to have a united front where policy is dictated from one source where the president has exclusive powers.
I am only looking out for eIsrael and we need to find a solution to this mess asap. We need a leader with legitimacy and control over the entire spectrum of government and government policy to be effective.
This is a complete mess, and i now for one have a headache.
Jeff hit it right on the nail.
We had no idea who our cabinet was, yet they were all doing their jobs already. Israel needs a leader that communicates. Gzen should have posted an article much earlier before we had heard that the cabinet jobs were assigned and were being done.
I second the headache, Justin. It's all rather confusing. If only Sadeh hadn't run in the last presidential election, but he didn't know when he needed to leave. Things pop up.
To make things completely 100% clear. If Israel does in fact want me as president, I have no intention of changing Gzen's cabinet. Justin, you will still be on board for Foreign Affairs along with Jamarcus. I again, did my very best to not step on peoples toes. If it was at all possible to keep the public calm without having to announce this, I would have.
I have no intention of changing things drastically, I have no intention of kicking people out of their offices... I just want/desire/need Israel to survive and prosper.
okay, we will do what we can then.
I can not think of more capable hands for Israel to be left in. I fully support your candidacy in July and hope you won't fire me as MoD 😉
Buzzy, you have my vote. Gzen have fine opportunity to prove himself for the rest of a term and gain some experience and may be fine pretendent in the future.
You have my full support and vote as well Buzzy 🙂
It's apparent that we include you in our inner circle of information. Starting with Turkey. I wonder how you and the people feel about a Peace Treaty with Turkey that would include giving back Central and Jerusalem Districts?
Having Jamarcus that came here 2 days ago as MoFA which is one of the most sensitive jobs in the country just showing me Gzen cant be the president.
Tbh, im sorry that he was the only candidate against me and I dont think he can run government properly, also from what I heared in the IRC most of the people agree with me.
For now the problem will always be lack of activiy and knowledge form the people, also from the future ministers, thats a problem that should be fixed.
From where I see it no one atm is more suitable then Buzzy as a new president for Israel.
Who here actually knows what is our situation with Turkey? why they dont attack us yet? why we have realised our 2 region in one day as we did?
Coming here and declaring:"we need to attack turkey/we need to sign peace with turkey" are 2 statements that only people who dont understand our situation will say.
Im sorry, Gzen is not even 1/4 active as I was, and he is too noobish to be president for such country.
Its not attack or something but honest truth.
Also for the moment until I get impeached or something, you guys can work together on what the president need to do, send me PM with the sum of what I need to do and I will do it until im no longer the president.
I'm not a member of IWP (obviously) but Justin has always struck me as one of the more level headed of the IWP faction. He's both active and more of a known quantity to the public than some who seem to be appearing out of the woodwork with claims to greatness.
Whoever is appointed I hope they can show some statesmanship, dignity and self restraint.
I believe Buzzy is the best candidate to be president , he just has much more experience then Gzen , and I believe is just the better man for the job .
