The problem with protests is, it's not public opinion. So I don't know what you think it reveals. Poll after poll indicates that there is no appetite in Israel for accepting Hamas's terms, widespread support for military action against Hamas, and widespread opposition to a Palestinian state [1]. Alluding to a TV series is in no way indicative of the accuracy of opinion polls. Yes, Prime Minister is fictional. Israel is not fictional, the war is not fictional, the 1000s of people dead are not fictional, the 1000s of destroyed lives and trillions in destroyed capital is not fictional. Nothing about a fictional TV series is relevant here. In reality, the Israelis are way more fed up with Gaza than it was 10 years ago and the support for a Palestinian state and peace with Hamas is not going to win anyone elections in Israel. You don't have to like it, but if you think getting rid of Netanyahu is going to change that, you are wrong. What might change is the government policy regarding settlements in the west bank, but it won't stop the war. The most likely person to replace Netanyahu, Benny Gantz, is more eager to enter Rafah than Netanyahu. [1]: https://www.atlanticcouncil.org/blogs/menasource/israel-gaza... |
