Israeli military veterans, a backbone of protest movement, vow to keep demonstrating | CNN

I'm telling ya, this protest is all good but I gotta disagree with myself too ... I mean, on one hand, it's awesome that these vets are standing up for democracy and whatnot , but at the same time, aren't they being a bit dramatic about it? Like, calm down guys, it's just politics . But, on the other hand, shouldn't they have a say in how their country is run? I mean, isn't that kinda like, basic .

And honestly, I'm not sure if Netanyahu's pause will really make a difference ... I think he's just trying to buy some time to figure out his next move . But at the same time, maybe this delay is exactly what they needed , you know? Like, sometimes taking a step back can be a good thing .

But, for real though , these protests are getting more and more intense ... I just hope nobody gets hurt . We need to keep the peace (most of the time) .

I think its crazy that these guys are putting their lives on hold because they care so much about Israel's democracy. They're literally risking everything to stand up for what they believe in . As a DIY enthusiast, I've seen my fair share of DIY solutions, but this is one thing where you can't just hammer out a quick fix . You gotta tackle the root issue and that's not gonna be easy.

These protesters aren't just fighting for their own rights, they're fighting for what's best for Israel as a whole. And I think it's awesome that they're showing up in huge numbers to make their voices heard . Of course, there are still questions about whether Netanyahu's pause will actually lead to real change .

One thing I do know is that these veterans have got the guts to stand up for what they believe in and that takes a lot of courage . So yeah, I'm all for supporting their cause and maybe even learning from their DIY skills

The fact that vets like Golov & others are takin the fight to the streets shows us that even those who have dedicated their lives to defend Israel aren't immune to feelin the effects of goverment reform . Their commitment 2 democracy is admirable, but it's also clear that Netanyahu's delay might just be a ploy 2 stall progress . The protesters are right 2 be skeptical, but at the same time, it's great 2 see vets takin a stand 4 what they believe in . We'll have 2 wait & see how this all plays out, but one thing is for sure: Israel's future is gonna be shaped by its military veterans' voices

these gov reform plans r a joke , how can u trust ppl who dont even care about judiciary independence? vets are right 2 stand up 4 whats best 4 israel, cant let gov just play w/ fire & expect nothin to happen . Netanyahu's pause is a weak attempt 2 stall protest movement, might as well be tellin us 2 shut up already . we need concrete change not empty promises .

I can feel the frustration and determination from Yiftach Golov and all those veterans who are fighting for democracy in Israel . It's amazing to see people from different backgrounds coming together and using their collective voice to stand up for what they believe in. I mean, who wouldn't want to see a functional democratic country where everyone has equal rights and freedoms?

The fact that these veterans, who have dedicated their lives to serving the country, are now standing up against government reforms that threaten the very fabric of democracy is really inspiring . They're not just fighting for themselves, but for the future of Israel and its people.

It's also a testament to the power of grassroots movements and the importance of ordinary people making a difference . Who knew that a group of veterans could bring about such significant changes in the government? It just goes to show that even the most unlikely heroes can become leaders .

so they're taking a stand against government reforms that could give more control to the parties in power I feel for them, been there done that, but at the same time i get why they'd wanna step up and make their voices heard. it's like when you join something but then realize it's not what you signed up for? anyway, its cool that they're putting their foot down and demanding real change. 100% agreement on wanting to protect democratic values , gotta keep pushing for a more just society
