This is an insightful and correct comment. Up front, I am a fervent Zionist, with just a personal musing: Accumulation of many discussions post 10/7 made me reevaluate how I think, and thus talk about, the greater Israeli political factors. It's unconvincing when framed in terms of more rabid politicians with little popular support. At the end of the day, people correctly perceive that this isn't a temporary political situation, even when they don't know a Smotrich from a Smeagol. If they do, it's unconvincing because these people are the government, and hold the levers of power to implement the vision regardless of what percentage of voters back it up specifically. To wit, Ben-Gvir proudly announcing new settlements in Golan Heights.
