Israel's Political Turmoil: A Traumatic Awakening to Deep Divisions and Democratic Challenges.

Tensions in Israel have exploded as protesters swarm the streets over the country's new far-right ruling coalition's agenda. The crisis is an existential one, and many Israelis worry the judicial overhaul will defang the judiciary and badly damage their democracy. President Joe Biden publicly reprimanded the Israeli leader over the judicial overhaul, and Netanyahu fired back with a statement basically telling America to mind its own business. The whole country is being run on WhatsApp groups, and there have been over 120 bills at different stages that would really hurt what many feel are fundamental basic democratic rights.
