Netanyahu admits Israel is on the brink of 'CIVIL WAR' as he postpones judicial reform amid another night of violent protests
Daily Mail ^ | March 28, 2023 | Rohan Gupta

Bending to a wave of mass protests, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu delayed his contentious judicial overhaul plan Monday and said he wanted 'to avoid civil war' by making time to seek a compromise with political opponents.

The announcement appeared to calm some of the tensions that have fueled three tumultuous months of unrest. But it failed to address the underlying issues that have polarized the nation, and the antigovernmental protest movement vowed to intensify its efforts.

In his prime-time address, Netanyahu, who had previously rejected calls to delay the legislation, took a more conciliatory tone than in recent speeches. He acknowledged the deep divisions in the country and said he was hitting the pause button 'to prevent a rift in the nation.'

'When there's an opportunity to avoid civil war through dialogue, I, as prime minister, am taking a timeout for dialogue,' he said. He vowed to reach a 'broad consensus' during the summer session of parliament, which begins on April 30.

He spoke after tens of thousands of Israelis demonstrated outside parliament, and the country's largest labor union launched a nationwide strike in a dramatic escalation of the mass protest movement against his plan.

Netanyahu and his religious and ultranationalist allies presented the overhaul in January just days after forming their government, the most right-wing in Israel's history.

The proposal has plunged Israel into its worst domestic crisis in decades. Business leaders, top economists and former security chiefs have all come out against the plan, saying it is pushing the country toward an autocracy. Fighter pilots and military reservists have threatened not to report for duty, and the country's currency, the shekel, has tumbled in value.

“The Deep State is almost tipping in Israel. This is but one of the battles.”

Our resident gloom and doomers see every battle as the ultimate defeat. They make stuff up as they prattle along. Did you know that there are 15 ChiComm divisions hiding in shipping containers at the Oakland port?

I’m always amazed at how the MiG-19’s came up and took down Roger Locher and his front-seater Bob Lodge - I can only guess he’d (Lodge) turned down his headset - his wingman said he was yelling at him. Wiki says it was a J-6 in reality.

Amazing that Roger Locher evaded capture for 23 days until rescued.

They are far more capable than they used to be

[Setting the stage for the man of sin. The beast power.]

Correct. 7 years of 'Peace and Security' - "Peace and Safety" KJV - "Peace and Security" RSV

***** Peace and Security Video ***** (click here)

1st Thessalonians 5:1-4 King James Version (KJV)

5 But of the times and the seasons, brethren, ye have no need that I write unto you.

2 For yourselves know perfectly that the day of the Lord so cometh as a thief in the night.

3 For when they shall say, Peace and safety; then sudden destruction cometh upon them, as travail upon a woman with child; and they shall not escape.

4 But ye, brethren, are not in darkness, that that day should overtake you as a thief.

Next comes the 'Tipping Point'.............followed by the 'Watershed Moment'................

Hopefully, we'll get a Wakeup Call before we reach the Watershed Moment.

IMHO we are living in the most transformative era mankind has ever witnessed.

I remember the 1990s. Communism had fallen and the internet promised a new renaissance. Everyone would have all of world literature available. Everyone would enjoy free speech and their own platforms over the internet.

But by the 2010s, the internet had been consolidated in a few hands, as with the TV networks. And the internet itself amplified and encouraged the worst of human behavior.

Remember if God can’t keep his promises to Israel through the covenants,...

God's covenant promises to Israel were fulfilled when he sent Jesus.

That’s because they didn’t want you to understand.

No reasonable person could disagree with the reforms.

So how’s that regeneration working out for you?
There’s no substitute for careful study and rightly dividing the word of Truth.

Well, I kind of understood, but your explanation was an order of magnitude clearer than most of what I’ve read from left or right. FWIW, I’m the most Zionist Irish atheist possible. Even investigated emigrating...

What exactly do you mean the “Torah state”? you mean the kingdom under David to Josiah?

So eliminating the books of the Prophets and of course the Talmud?
