The domestic politics of Israel are really something else. The vast majority of Jews oppose Netanyahu even though they broadly support his campaign of genocide in Gaza. There is however a sizable minority that opposes Bibi and his total disregard for the safety of the remaining hostages held by Hamas. There’s been substantial protests against him for some time now and the protests are only growing in size and scope. They’re becoming an almost daily thing as the prospect for an Israeli invasion of Rafah looms.
Here’s some clips of what was going on in Tel Aviv tonight.

Bibi is in a tough spot.
Perhaps he should do a speech and call them all Nazis and anti-Semites.
