Good.
I didn't expect this strong and transparent sign of opposition, but now that it's there, I like it.
This isn't a new phenomenon. Netanyahu was already deeply unpopular before October 7th and large scale protests have happened before.
However, it's important to note that these are not anti-war protests. Most Israelis still support the military action in Gaza; They're just protesting the fact that Netanyahu hasn't done a good enough job of bringing the hostages home.
