For a variety of geopolitical reasons, Israel is the clit of America’s foreign policy — very small, but very sensitive. As such, anything that happens with Israel potentially has massive political significance in America. At the moment, it definitely seems as though Israel may be on the cusp of nothing short of a revolution.
The thing that really bothers me is It Can Happen Here. In late 2024, early 2025, America could very well see itself suffering from the same bullshit happening in Israel at the moment.
It makes you think that maybe what’s going on in Israel and France are part of a broader crisis of Western democracy. Something is wrong with the otherwise stable democracies of the West and it definitely seem as though we’re careening towards a very, very dark and disruptive future.
Anyway. I hope everything works out with Israel. I don’t want any violence. But they say you go bankrupt gradually, then all at once and so….who knows….
