I’m not sure if this is the right community for this question, but it says “no stupid question” so here goes. I’m an Israeli who now lives in the US, but I am considering permanently residing in the US or elsewhere (perhaps somewhere in Europe or Canada) because I’ve become kinda disillusioned with Israel for a variety of reasons (the war in Gaza being one of them, the erosion of democracy by Likud being another, and etc) but is that cowardly to leave? Should I go back and try to change society or should I just leave for good? Thanks for your time.

    Yes, the ultra Orthodox are very complicit and they are directly protected by the IDF. There are moral Israelis who refuse to serve and pay the consequences. 70% voluntarily protect the settlers and perform other atrocities.

    How does Israel treat former Nazis? Why shouldn’t former IDF members be treated the same?
