Superb analysis. I find myself in agreement with everything you say. Three quick examples from a circle of my close friends, all native Sabras: a former fighter pilot (rank: Colonel), former battle helicopter pilot (rank: Major) and my first true love, let's call her Maya (no rank but her father was a General - Aluf Mishne - who worked for a time as Ben Gurion's pvt secretary) Maya's brother fell in the Yom Kippur War (Sergeant First Class, age 23, ז''ל)

All of the above suffer incurable Bibi Derangement Syndrome. They call Bibi a cancer, a stain on Israel's history and "moral purity", a destroyer of the soul of Israel (their words)

They all demonstrate, print leaflets and posters etc. The fighter pilot friend told me in so many words that he has dedicated his life to bringing Bibi down.

Strangely, the one thing they should clearly blame Netanyahu for - making Israel a giant Pfizer lab - seems to be of no import to them.

On a much happier note, Diana, the old guard (my generation) is dying out. The next generation of leaders will be the sons and daughters of refugees from Irak, Morocco, Iran etc and trust me, they are much tougher, true Middle Easterners, and the KNOW what and who Israel is dealing with

Again : great piece!!
