I do wonder how many of the American posters here who oppose the reform also support packing SCOTUS

The interesting thing about Israel is that while the Netanyahu coalition has the allegiance of half the electorate, more or less, much of that electorate does not participate in Israeli civil society, which is to say that a clear majority of that society is opposed to him. It's not just that the government is trying to radically transform society with the barest popular mandate—the Kahanist militia that the government intends to create is obviously totally incompatible with existing Israeli society—it's that it's doing so without the acquiescence of, really, any of the productive sector of society.

I assume a lot of the military resistance stems from the factor that a lot of Haredi avoid the draft .

Pilsudskis 1925 coup was actually supported by the leftists as well although he didn't work with them beyond a few months.
