As the future becomes less certain and less secure due to climate change and capitalist overextension, basically every major government is looking for ways to efficiently control their populace through technology. Arguably the countries with the strongest totalitarian tools would be the most suited to weather that long-term catastrophe.

Can't riot about access to food if everyone who so much as says an idle word in their own home is put on a "reeducation" pathway.

Palestine is the testing grounds for surveillance, drones, weaponry, and testing how public opinion will be around a crisis & genocide. Now they're planning to test it upon their own citizens once they finish moving/genociding immigrants.
