Axios reports

The big picture: The attack comes amid a deep political crisis in Israel over the Netanyahu government's judicial overhaul, which has weakened the country's military, economy and society.

Why it matters: The plan, which will weaken the Supreme Court and other democratic institutions, has faced opposition from some of Israel's closest allies, including the Biden administration, and it has already destabilized the country's economy and military.
We saw it here with attacks on the military and stuffing the court with stooges. In our case, arguably a Putin Puppet Plan.

Nobody else, nor does anyone else benefit from them all; damn near every maga move or roadblock.
