‘Israel’s domestic political struggle: Not a call to end war, not a call against ethnic cleansing’

Israelis are again protesting Netanyahu, with a general strike planned—yet the country’s largest trade union remains uninvolved. Political analyst Dr. Ori Goldberg notes these protests echo past years, lacking institutional support and avoiding criticism of the war or alleged ethnic cleansing. He frames them as a domestic political struggle, not a moral reckoning. “As long as protesters don’t reject Netanyahu’s policies outright,” he warns, “they effectively endorse them—and Netanyahu knows it, which is why he allows the protests.” Despite widespread discontent, Goldberg stresses Netanyahu remains the strongest contender if snap elections are held.
