An opinion piece argues that the Israeli opposition is failing to adequately resist what it terms a "Jewish supremacy regime" that oppresses Palestinians and left-wing activists under emergency rule. The author cites a mother's distress over her son's alleged participation in violence against Palestinians, questioning whether he was sent to the army or a "terrorist organization."
The article posits that a new generation is being indoctrinated during military service into a camp that dominates the army. It draws parallels to historical authoritarian regimes in Spain and Portugal, suggesting that future generations will ask why there was no opposition to the current trajectory.
The author identifies three stages of opposition paralysis. The first began with Supreme Court rulings in 2020 and 2021 that allowed Benjamin Netanyahu to form a government and upheld the Nation-State Law, respectively. The opposition debated these rulings but largely accepted the then-Chief Justice's assertion that the "fortress" of democracy had not fallen, despite perceived erosion from within by conservative judicial appointments and delegitimization campaigns.
The second stage, the article claims, occurred when the opposition mobilized to defend the judiciary during the "legal overhaul" attempts but then shifted focus to the Gaza war and conflicts in Lebanon and Iran following Hamas's October 7th attack. This shift, influenced by a "militaristic code," led the opposition to align with the government's war conduct, which the author characterizes as "genocide, expulsion, destruction, and starvation."
The current, third stage involves settler violence against Palestinians and their supporters, allegedly with army and police backing. The author also points to right-wing attacks on left-wing activists within Israel and election campaigns promoting the expulsion of Palestinians and the Judaization of the Galilee. The piece concludes by suggesting that the opposition is paralyzed by a "militaristic code" that prevents it from confronting the army and by a failure to recognize that the core issue is the de facto annexation of Palestinians, posing a threat to the opposition itself.
