April 5, 2026For the past month, Iddo Elam has been gathering with fellow Israeli radical left activists in Tel Aviv’s Habima Square to protest the war with Iran. As dissent spreads to the political center and these anti-war demonstrations expand, demonstrators face violent crackdowns by Israeli police — while opposition lawmakers are still nowhere to be seen. Also:
- ‘They already shoot us for no reason. Now they have a death penalty’
- Israeli leaders are condemning settler attacks. It’s a smokescreen
- Fifty years on, does Land Day still matter for Palestinians in Israel?
- Less Jesus, more Genghis Khan: How Netanyahu sees Israel’s place in the world


What are you basing that on?
The linked article roundly suggests that the protestors in question are staunchly anti-war and largely a non-zionist cohort.
It’s still so weird to me to see “cohort” used this way
