Israel tried to arrest some soldiers for gang-raping palestinian prisoners. It turned into a standoff between the soldiers at the base and the epople trying to arrest them that they had to bring in military units that were in Gaza. Many prominent Israeli politicians (though not netanyahu) are calling for the rapists to be freed with all charges dropped.

Israel's still shooting at clearly identified press
Reminder: The IDF fired two tank rounds at a group of "clearly identifiable journalists" last year, murdering one and injuring 6: https://www.theguardian.com/world/2024/mar/13/israel-broke-international-law-journalist-killed
The Press Association of the United States would like to thank the United States for buying them all those bullets

Netanyahu is now literally just copy pasting Putin's logic and we all stand aside and watch it happen.
Hamas and Hezbollah are terrorist organizations (or, they have other branches and aspects as well but have a weaponized terror branch which controls most of their actions, at the very least).
I will not shed a tear of both of them cease to exist.
That doesn't give Israel the right to continuously bombard and now put boots on the ground in other countries.
This is a - bad - remix of the Ukraine War with the Afghan War and some seven-days war thrown in for good measure.
We've long passed the 50,000 dead civilians landmark. The Middle East will remain contentious and a bloodbath for another few generations, and we're all guilty of letting it happen under the guise of anti-terrorism and self-défense.

I don’t believe that Israel will be here in a generation. Businesses are shutting down at just a stunning rate due to a lack of workers available and international businesses are moving away from dealing with Israeli businesses. The IOF was already having problems with recruitment back in June so their military has to be flagging. Then they open up a new front in the war? Against an enemy with an actual military that already fought them to a stand still 18 years ago?
I don’t see anyway this turns out well for Israel.
