israeli government cracking down on even the liberal zionists

My understanding was that the main impetus for this was Haartez publishing articles about the IDF firing on concertgoers on Oct 7. But I didn't follow this super closely.

many articles that have hurt the legitimacy of the state of Israel and its right to self defense, and particularly the remarks made in London by Haaretz publisher, Amos Schocken, that support terrorism and call for imposing sanctions on the government."

And of course the three related Haaretz articles they linked in this one are

Haaretz publisher clarifies Hamas remarks as Netanyahu gov't threatens sanctions
Terrorists are not freedom fighters | Editorial
Schocken, call them by their name – terrorists

At some point you'd think more Israelis would look around and see this shit and go "oh we're the baddies, aren't we? Dang. This sucks."
