Israelis protested Netanyahu all year, and his disregard for hostages is unnerving. The public (unsure if it's the majority) demand his resignation.

According to the Times of Israel, suicide was the leading cause of death among the IDF in 2021 and hit a five-year high in 2022. They are more likely to kill themselves than die in combat.

My Israeli friends' recent Facebook posts plead for peace, and I wonder how long the nation can withstand endless conflicts. It's cruel for everyone.
