I will be speaking with some friends in Israel in a couple of hours and will report their opinion here. Important to note, they are NOT Zionists. They were raised Orthodox Jews but are not of that strict belief. They will let me know what the majority of the pop is doing. If itās not too late in the evening, I will type it up tonight but most likely will be in the morning, US CDT.

I spoke with a couple in Israel earlier and itās so much to unpack, Iām not going to try to do it but will give you highlights, including video attachment with some info. It is a bit difficult for me to tell exactly where the woman in the video interview stands. She speaks of a Left-wing conspiracy theory when it comes to Israelās āend gameā and says there is none. My friends disagree. The endgame is as the title of the interview suggests, a form of Jewish Theocratic Fascism.
If thereās a country more divided than US, itās Israel and I will try to categorize it for you:
The Right - Led by Netanyahu and BenāGvir. Zionist, pro-Israel to the exclusion of Palestinians. Far Right, which is also Yahu and BG want all non-Jews out and a theocratic govt. This is what the massive protests were about; in opposition to these actions.
The Left - Pretty much everyone else but not to be mistaken for The Left as we know it in The West. They are liberal but not stupid in the same sense. There are enclaves of Far Left (LGBTQ, etc.) in places.
Questions and statements:
Israel is getting the same MSM reporting propaganda that the rest of the world is getting, only laced with a lot more Zionist rhetoric. Non-Zionists donāt believe whatās being reported but canāt get any real information from media sources; lots of conflicting info. Theyāre in the same quagmire as the rest of us in this regard and do not believe their MSM.
Jews are questioning how the gate was left open for Hamas to enter and pull this off. They canāt decide if this was a real weakness in the protective system setup, or, done on purpose but they do question this heavily. (BINGO!)
Palestinians and Jews alike are appalled at the govt and IDF response of bombing the hell out of Gaza and want it stopped immediately! People surmise itās Bibiās cover to delay or eliminate criminal charges against him. Vast majority of Israel is not in favor of him remaining in any office whatsoever but in a crisis right now and average person is confused.
Most Palestinians and Jews have wanted to find a way to live together in peace for decades but as the fascist element took hold during the last 20ish years and with all thatās happened, they donāt know how that would work now. Everyone is frightened and angry at Yahu and govt.
The one person who has disappeared from news and sight is Ben Gāvir. Most all feel sure that Yahu has placed him in charge of civilian police and that he is responsible for brutality and arrests of any and all citizens who speak out against Israelās response and general actions in any form. BG is hated by everyone, except die-hard Zionists. āWeāve got to get rid of both of them; we just donāt know the best way to go about it, yet.ā
First step: Stop the bombing of Gaza and do not send IDF, Americans, or other troops into Gaza on the ground.
Side note: When I experienced Israel in the 1980ās and 1990ās, EVERYONE had Uziās. Now, few have them and their rights to arm highly restricted. My friends said very forcefully: DO NOT GIVE UP YOUR FIREARMS! If they were still armed to the teeth, the govt would not have done all this. They might be small in comparison to what your military can do to you but evidently, theyāre still a threat, else, the govt would not have taken them away.
Video: This woman might be a talented artist but she is not a good speaker; too much āumā but she explains it pretty well. Thru min. 29:20.
