The Hebrew newspaper "Maariv" - Major General Yitzhak Brik: - The state of Israeli society is not limited to division alone; it is living in the midst of a silent civil war. The burning hatred between different sectors, communities, and groups has reached levels of intensity that cannot be extinguished. When national resilience turns into ash and the social fabric becomes poisoned, there is no way for this country to experience any kind of revival. - The growth engines in the country are stalling one after another. Doctors, scientists, high-tech entrepreneurs, and leading business leaders - the finest minds who have shouldered the economy and the healthcare system - are packing their bags and leaving. Thus, the expertise, knowledge, and professional skills accumulated over decades of hard work are being lost, leaving behind a void that no one will be able to fill. - Erosion has reached the roots: the rule of law and democratic institutions are fading and withering, while the public sector is becoming an arena of superficial political appointments where blind loyalty takes precedence over competence and integrity. A state where the law is merely a suggestion, and justice is trampled in public squares, must inevitably descend into chaos. - Anyone who observes reality with clear and open eyes understands that "Israel" is not just going through a "passing storm," but is sliding toward the abyss, like a wrecked ship in a stormy sea, on the verge of sinking.
