Atlantic posted:TEL AVIV—While predictions of doom in Israeli-Palestinian relations tend to come easy, the worst doesn’t always come to pass. But thanks to a pair of major upcoming anniversaries, the vagaries of the Jewish and Muslim calendars, and the whimsy of President Donald Trump, the coming week could be different. The confluence of numerous events set to take place over a few days in May has felt, as it approaches, like a perfect storm gathering. https://www.theatlantic.com/international/archive/2018/05/israel-jerusalem-embassy-syria-iran/560093/ poo poo getting real starting tomorrow?

Main Paineframe posted:the Israeli far right has spent a while openly telegraphing their intentions to weaken or overturn any governmental entity capable of acting as a check on their dominance in the Knesset. for example, calling for the courts to be weakened and for the power of judicial review to be taken away I feel like a war against Hezbollah is probably next. Netanyahu knows it's inevitable, Trump is the friendliest US president he'll ever have to get away with whatever he wants, and his last year in office could be next year.

Real hurthling! posted:they also want to make mitigating jordans insane debt crisis contingent on giving up support for palestine now that I think of it, how has Jordan managed to stay relatively stable this long as it is? Surely ISIS and other salafis in Syria and Iraq detested their monarchy and it would seem they've had ample opportunity to gently caress with it

Nah, even if he's short of a majority he still might be able to poach some of Blue and White to build one. Otherwise there'll be a third election lol there's really no alternative to rule Israel. Gantz is a dumb oaf and the rest of Likud are Bibi sycophants

Ringo Roadagain posted:Ive been following Palestine/Israel stuff since I guess around the 2006 invasion of Lebanon, and in those 15 years I dont really recall any instances of the palestinians living in Israel rioting like this. Its possible I am forgetting, but this seems like a very big deal. Yeah, presumably this is a battle wholly between Israeli citizens, Jews and Arabs.

christmas boots posted:Nothing is going to happen to Israel. Eventually at some point the Palestinians will be effectively wiped out as a people. Then some years after the fact we'll look back on it with shame and indignation. We'll say we should have done something. We made mistakes but we've learned from. More than that, we've made changes. We'll promise that something like this will never happen again. And on it goes. I'm not saying "it's different this time" but it does feel like the nature of this conflict is shifting somewhat. Just the fact that there has been street fighting between Jews and Arabs in Israel is new, unexpected, and I guarantee has got heads spinning in Washington. It really does call into question the future viability of Israel as a coherent state. Yeah they can sit on the West Bank and Gaza forever as occupied territory, but what do they do when their enemies are their own citizens?

Grizzled Patriarch posted:
and if Israel Kristalnacht-ing their own citizens is the future of that country, it just doesn't indicate stability. It shows a regime on the defensive in a war that can never be won. Even in the 80s, I wonder if it looked like white rule in South Africa would last forever. Israel is obviously not going to go the same way, but I look at the events of the past few days and it just looks like the center cannot hold. In a similar vein I wonder if, after the recent violence dies down, Netanyahu will be forced out of office by American pressure. He induced this war for political reasons, after all, and the mob violence in Israel is going to be real hard to paper over (for PR reasons in the US, obviously Israelis don't give a poo poo). He could be a useful scapegoat so the media can say, "see? the bad man that was leading Israel down the path of fascism is gone, now it's ok to like Israel again"

Most of the very few articles that actually bother to give you a source refer to the ADL. So what does the ADL say? I found it, I found the antisemitism.
