In the looming civil war, the Israeli right has the upper hand

While the government can rely on national-religious identity to mobilize supporters, the opposition’s counternarrative suffers a serious weakness.

The brewing “civil war” we are currently witnessing in Israel is not a flashing spectacle, but rather a long-running process. Contrary to how the far right has tried to bombastically portray the mass opposition to its judicial overhaul, IDF Chief of Staff Herzi Halevi and Shin Bet Director Ronan Bar did not ride on tanks to the Prime Minister’s Office in Jerusalem to announce to the nation that they are taking over the government for a transitional period until democracy is restored. Thousands of reservists in the Israel Air Force and other elite army units, who have vowed not to show up for duty, did not land helicopters near the Knesset in the early hours of the morning after neutralizing the Knesset guard. On the contrary, as today’s Knesset vote showed, the judicial overhaul is continuing apace.

This civil strife is still only in its infant stages. The rival camps are still forming. The revolutionaries on the right rely on their Knesset majority only when it comes to votes on legislation; in an actual civil war, they will need a broad and mobilized public. Their backbone is religious populations of all kinds, from the Hardalim to the Haredim to the mainstream national-religious.

The Jewish version of Nazism will probably win out, a sad end to a democratic state in the ME. The US isn't the only country that will fall to identity politics.

There is not going to be a civil war in Israel.

What is going on in Isrel is very similar to what is going in America aka a cultural war....aka liberals vs. conservatives, aka whether to be governed by elected representatives (conservative belief) or by liberal elite judges...the Liberal desire.

The 'Israeli right' are lunatics. They are hardcore racists. The American 'left' isn't 'Left', it's just a bunch of Burb Brat narcissists who allow feral hood rats to run loose. When these rats start killing and robbing them, they will turn on them, too. There is no cohesiveness in the left's coalitions of deviants and feral hood rats and illegal aliens; they are all at odds with each other. The Jewish ultra-Orthodox and Hasidim vermin are a very different animal, the latter are parasites. They one up Nazis in considering themselves the only human race, period, not just a 'Master Race'.

The Israelis opposed to them are not all 'left wing radicals'. The demographics of Israeli Jews are different than with American Jews; don't be confused about the differences.
