A new Israeli documentary series, "The Operating Table," premiered Sunday, offering an unconventional examination of senior politicians just before elections. The show aims to reveal the true worth, physical condition, handwriting, and fashion choices of prominent Israeli political figures.
Each episode features five experts who scrutinize politicians from various angles. An economist will analyze their financial standing, a rhetoric expert will dissect their speeches, a body language specialist will interpret their non-verbal cues, a stylist will assess their wardrobe, and a graphologist will examine their handwriting and signatures. The series promises to go beyond typical political questions, delving into what politicians' personal attributes reveal about them.
Politicians including Benjamin Netanyahu, Gadi Eisenkot, Naftali Bennett, Itamar Ben-Gvir, Avigdor Lieberman, Yair Golan, Aryeh Deri, and Bezalel Smotrich are set to be analyzed. The public will also participate through a special poll conducted by Shlomo Filber, asking questions about politicians' suitability as business partners, neighbors, or friends, and whether public trust in their leadership translates to personal affinity.
The expert panel includes body language expert Dorit Uziel, graphologist Yuval Ben Bast, journalist and media critic Hanan Amiur, entrepreneur and host Avitar Ben Porat, and stylist Liat Ashuri. The series intends to uncover the real person behind the suits, slogans, and campaigns through archival footage, embarrassing moments, surprising revelations, and cynical analysis.
