MODERATORS
"Rising up" insomuch as they were protesting his proposed changes, not in that they were contemplating actually removing him from power, or even trying to oust/disband/etc Likud.
Don't you think that, however small, some action must take form?
When I was small there were two conflicts that dividend public opinion and were sure to last centuries, those bring the Israel-Palestine conflict and the Irish one.
I think that disengaging the murder spiral makes things better. Both the resentment of the Israeli youth against their more and more fascist government was an incredibly worthwhile step.
Hamas and Likud alle don't like any two state proposals, that's why this is happening.
If I came into your house and drove you by force into the garage, I don't think you'd want a "2-house solution" that allows you to live there, either.
And no, I don't think that essentially saying, "why don't the Palestinians wait around being killed quietly, to see if the youths protesting today will massively change Israel's trajectory when they get into politics in 20 years?" is a reasonable, measured, or humane stance.
