One of the deepest fractures in Israeli politics has emerged not over opposition to the country’s war crimes—but over who is expected to fight and who is exempt.

In case anyone's confused the contradictions include regrets over what's been done in Gaza.

CIA reports what Isreal wants them to report. So Netanyahu wants you to think the country is close to collapse. So that he can justify emergency powers to keep himself in power indefinitely.

Don't threaten me with a good time.

Well, I predict LOTS of civil wars in LOTS of places, especially as the environment collapses and basic needs aren’t met.

If that actually happens, the evangelicals and Millennialists are going to flip out.

Time to stock up on popcorn.

Total collapse? Oh, no. Golly, how awful! I mean, gosh and gee whillikers, I sure hope that doesn't happen. I hope it a lot.

Oh, wait ...

The August report, titled “Fracture From Within,” was compiled by experts in the CIA’s Red Cell, according to two U.S. sources who described the contents of the report to Drop Site News. The Red Cell, which is the unit responsible for providing “alternative analysis” within the agency, produced the assessment through a combination of open source information and U.S. intelligence.... The CIA’s “red teams” are tasked with developing analysis and ideas that challenge prevailing assumptions and expose groupthink or blind spots that can take hold within the intelligence apparatus.

Basically, this is "what's the weirdest shit that is kinda plausible if things don't go how our consensus expects." Useful I assume, but by definition unlikely.

Let's hope that happens soon! Holding my thumbs!

Over what? Half the country likes genocide and the other half likes genocide, too? All these terrorist countries like Israel, the USA and Russia can all go to hell.

“As we’re moving forward with further integrating our military-industrial capacity with them, there’s deep frustration that we’re doing this for a country that dragged us into a war we’re losing, a country that spies on us.”

Then fucking stop!

The CIA also spent 13 years hunting Radovan Karadžić, a Serbian who was living a public life in Serbia.

Could but very unlikely. Guess cia needs to consider everything. Also we need to stop using civil war to mean civil unrest.

That would be the weirdest possible turn of events.

And like, every single supporter of Israel would be stumped, because they would need to think about which Israel to back.

Absolute cinema. Good idea for a fictional alternate timeline.

The one time in my life I hope to god the CIA is right.

Good. The state of Israel is evil.

There's already a civil war right next door in Syria, with Turkey, USA, Russia, Israel, Kurds, too many to list fighting. Hundreds of thousands of people dead, years upon years of war.

SUPER WAR

Hopefully we see a repeat of the famous kingdom of Israel and kingdom of Judah split

A) US Intelligence says a lot of things.

B) Do you think Trump would allow any kind of major unrest in Israel right now?

Government, meet the consequences of you own actions. Happy to introduce you.

That would be dreamy.

insert Michael Jackson popcorn meme

Oh no, don’t threaten me with a good time

It's a stretch, as it is based on resentment among genocidal supporters for ultra orthodox faction not joining IDF. Though, afaiu, they are part of settler violence/theft, and no genocidal faction resents the settler actions, or sides with international condemnation of IDF/settler genocide/theft.

Hope it burns to the ground.

I don't celebrate war or violence of any kind

But if that's how it must go...(͡•_ ͡• )

Now do the US

Why is there a risk of civil war and total collapse ???

Where is the report?

Finally, some good news

The end result of any fascist state is them turning on themselves.

Promise?

Good

Hopefully

lol

That would cause so much suffering to the innocent people that live there...that have been supporting their right wing government in orchestrating genocide.

Please put all religious fanatics in the desert and have them nuke each other

Sometimes I think about that guy I went to grad school with that posted pro Israel stuff after 10/7. I wonder if he's a doctor now and is treating people. Imagine being a Muslim and the healthcare system putting you in the care of a shit stain zionist. Fuck.

And the US will be there either in 26 after. The elections, possibly, or in 28 after the elections.

Oh please! Oh please!

Sounds great

Good. It's what they deserve

I can't afford a tiny violin, the best I can do is a poop joke and give you a used piece of toilet paper.

Inshallah

One of the best scenes in WWZ (the movie at least) was watching Israel fall under the zombie weight of their own hubris. Nukes included.

Israel is at risk of civil war or state collapse, a classified CIA assessment warns, as years of genocide in Gaza and war in Lebanon and Iran deepen political, economic, and social fractures within the country.

The August report, titled “Fracture From Within,” was compiled by experts in the CIA’s Red Cell, according to two U.S. sources who described the contents of the report to Drop Site News. The Red Cell, which is the unit responsible for providing “alternative analysis” within the agency, produced the assessment through a combination of open source information and U.S. intelligence. The assessment appears to refer only to Israel’s Jewish citizens and does not consider its Palestinian citizens, who make up approximately 20% of Israel’s population and who live under various forms of discrimination that Amnesty International and other human rights groups have labelled as part of a broader system of apartheid. The CIA did not respond to a request for comment.

CIA experts pointed to a volatile mix of pressures converging ahead of Israel’s elections on October 27: economic crisis and soaring military spending; heavily armed veterans returning from prolonged combat, many carrying serious psychological trauma; growing fury over ultra-Orthodox men who are exempt from military service; escalating settler violence in the occupied West Bank; and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu fighting to hold onto power and igniting a constitutional crisis.

Personally I find it far more likely to happen in the US currently.

They could use critical thinking and Sagan's baloney kit to escape supernatural dogmatic systems and see what healthier ways there are to live. Yes, do that and stop the violence and suffering, caused by the wealth/power inequality that benefits men, designed by them into the unhealthy supernatural systems, that punch down on others in the hierarchy.
