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.

All we lack is someone with the formal title “king”, a few droughts and extreme weather,

Don’t worry

and

Just as it probably made sense to flee Nazi Germany into Austria

Last hired, first fired. Another illustration would be the First They Came poem by Pastor Martin Niemoller.

Meanwhile the Epstein class is wondering why the emaciated cow won’t produce any milk.

You load 16 tons what do you get? Another day older and deeper in debt.

Don’t worry: at this rate we’ll all owe our souls to the company store, and they’re unlikely to tolerate any damage to their inventory.

no wonder he’s accused of being a rapist.

Not accused, adjudicated. He IS a rapist.

Somewhat. I don’t think he’s a COMPLETE disappointment. I mean he did kill Bin Laden and, while it was a pale shadow of what it could have been, he did oversee the most comprehensive reform to health insurance seen in at least a generation. Before him? You were fucked if you had ANY preexisting condition whatsoever.

Hey Canada, a lot of Americans are right there with you.

Eh, there are a lot of voluntary troops to go through before they would need a draft. Years worth.

Is there a statute about that?

The good thing is that is thousands of troops are in Iran, they won’t be here to back up Trump’s upcoming coup attempt.

Or to rescue Congress from the President when J6 2 Electric Boogaloo happens

Sounds like fodder for the cannons.

Just because the other guy does it at home doesn’t mean its okay to do it to his people too. Its not an invitation.

They are a horrendous society and government, but a clock with dead batteries is still right twice a day.

The Hague isn’t subject to US Courts’ oversight. Basically, the ICC puts out warrants for tRmp, Kegseth, and the ilk. Wouldn’t expect the US to extradite. But, they’re arrested if they ever step foot in an ICC jurisdiction.

Only a living wage can prevent warehouse fires

Rather it be the catholic church doing the defrauding than the regime. At least the church has a (spotted) history of helping people. I mean they shined brightly during the black death, and they are a source of comfort for some people in the final moments. That, in of itself, is noble and something worth supporting despite a spotty record.

Compare that with the regime’s looting the coffers with nothing remotely comparable.

You’d have thought that after Trump 1, but here we are.

The US working class would have to mobilize serious strike action across the country to win universal healthcare.

Best we offer you is a “No Kings” protest/strike for just one day.
