Yeah, to say the least. A year or so before the October 7th attack that sparked our country’s intentional relations nosedive, there were massive country-wide protests, which I also participated in. You can probably find articles about it (Edit: Here’s a Wikipedia article about it if you want a jumping-off point). It was protesting against certain anti-democratic things the government was doing (I don’t want to get into the weeds here), but it was also fueled by unprecedented distrust of just about everyone in the government, and most of all Netanyahu. This distrust has only gotten worse.
That bastard should be in jail, but as “luck” would have it, he is always so preoccupied with all the wars he started that he can’t attend his court trial where he faces serious criminal charges. What’s that? Conflict of interest? He gains personal benefit from neverending war, so he has no incentive to actually end it (be it through diplomacy or through military victory)? Nah, I’m sure he has the country’s best interests at heart.
That people keep voting for him astounds me. But we’re seeing similar patterns worldwide, most obvious example being USA, so I guess this democracy thing is just failing all over the place this decade.
