An Identity Crisis for Israeli Liberals
Since Netanyahu’s religious nationalist government came to power at the end of 2022, the foundations of Israeli democracy have been under attack. Many liberals are calling for the government to resign.

The international community is divided - and Israeli liberals are struggling to find their place.

The Hamas terrorist attack on the 7th of October shook Israeli society to its core. After years of failing to negotiate peace, many Israelis settled for security. Now, with neither peace nor security, a divided and traumatized Israel faces its darkest hour. It is still too early to predict how or when the war will end, but certain steps can already be taken to improve the post-war reality.
