   My mother, who lived on a kibbutz in the 70s and goes to Israel every few months to be with family, just texted me "Israel will disappear". She's realizing that Bibi and the far-right aren't, after all, an anomaly.

   And she's right, Israel is dying. This is one thing people don't realize enough:

     Israel as we know it (a militaristic, apartheid state that offers democracy and liberalism to Jews only) is disappearing. It is slowly but surely becoming theocratic and authoritarian, even to Jews. Progressive Israeli Jews (progressive by Israeli standards) have realized this over the past few years. More and more are leaving the country--not because of apartheid or violence against Palestinians, but because "their" Israel is being overtaken.
