Israeli military veterans, a backbone of protest movement, vow to keep demonstrating | CNN

I'm so fed up with this whole situation . I mean, I get it, Netanyahu's got his own agenda and he's not afraid to push for changes that affect a lot of people. But honestly, can't we all just try to find some common ground? It seems like the Israeli veterans are being super vocal about their concerns, which is awesome , but I'm still worried that it might all be just a big show until something concrete happens. What really gets me is how some people think these reforms will somehow magically make Israel a more stable and functional country... give me a break ! We need to start thinking about what real change looks like here, not just shouting from the rooftops .

man this protest situation in Israel is getting crazy the way these vets are taking action is super inspiring, i mean who wouldn't want to stand up for what's right and defend their country? but at the same time, i can understand why people would be skeptical about the gov's intentions, it feels like they're just trying to delay or find loopholes either way, this is a huge moment for Israel and we should all be keeping an eye on how this plays out

The Israeli veteran protest movement is getting real ! These guys are putting their lives on the line for what they believe in, and it's about time someone spoke out against Netanyahu's plans to overhaul the judiciary. Their message of justice and liberty is music to my ears . I'm loving how Golov's group, Brother and Sisters in Arms, is using their military training to organize protests and mobilize demonstrators - talk about a force to be reckoned with! The fact that they're threatening to refuse service or train if the government pushes forward with the reforms is also super inspiring . It's like they're saying, "Hey, we may have served our country, but now it's time for us to protect its values" The pressure from these veterans has been a major factor in Netanyahu's decision to delay votes on the legislation, and I'm hoping it keeps up the momentum . Fingers crossed that Israel can become a functional democratic country again .

omg i just saw this video of a cat playing the piano and it was so relatable i mean who hasn't felt like they're fighting an uphill battle when they try to do something creative lol anyway back to israel i feel for those veterans they're literally putting their lives on hold to fight for democracy that's some next level stuff what's up with the flag tho? it sounds like a super vague promise of justice and liberty idk if it's going to be enough to sway netanyahu but i guess we'll just have to wait and see

The world has become too much for me . We are all just trying to make our way, and yet we're constantly faced with situations like this . It's enough to make you want to pull your hair out!

But you know what they say, "Actions speak louder than words." And these Israeli veterans are definitely taking action. I mean, who needs protests when you've got a group of ex-soldiers with a plan? It's about time someone stood up for democracy and spoke out against injustice.

The thing is, it's not just about the government; it's about the people. We need to be willing to stand up for what we believe in, even when it's hard . As the saying goes, "The greatest glory in living lies not in never falling, but in rising every time we fall."

I'm not sure if I buy this whole "fighting for justice and liberty" vibe from these vets. They're using their military training to stir up trouble, which is pretty concerning. It feels like a power move rather than genuine activism . And what's with the 100% guarantee? That sounds like a pretty lofty expectation . I'm all for democracy and transparency in government, but let's not forget that these vets are part of a system that's already been criticized for being biased . Can't we just have a nuanced conversation about this instead of resorting to threats and ultimatums?
