The division of Israeli society by October 6, 2023 and the helplessness of the IDF on October 7 are a clear result of the moral eclipse created in Israel in recent decades. Until the second intifada, the Palestinians used "conventional" terrorism against Israel.
Jerusalem forced the IDF to continue fighting in light of the humane laws of war, on a battlefield that the Palestinians had made inhuman, unnatural and therefore chaotic. The entry into the battlefield of a person cut off from his own survival instinct and a parent's instinct to protect the lives of his loved ones, made the battlefield chaotic.
