Israel’s ballot box or Pandora’s box? - opinion
Israel’s greatest threat may be its diminishing ability to distinguish truth from lies and political opponents from enemies. Can democracy withstand the pressure?
Assessment
Israel's democracy faces a crisis not from external enemies but from internal confusion: the blurring line between truth and lies, and between political rivals and existential threats. When you can no longer tell the difference, what holds democracy together? The pressure is on whether these distinctions can be restored before they dissolve entirely.
