Braver than the troops.

She is brave, period. There is a crackdown and violence towards anyone who dares protest the war crimes in Gaza, or even post against it on social media.

She is also in a super minority of 2% of Israelis who oppose the genocide.

Unless people are afraid to speak up, that’s what the polls say.

Pew Research has it at 4%

Israeli Arabs * ~~-[sic]-~~ are much more likely than Jews to say the country’s military response has gone too far (74% vs. 4%).

* the term Israeli Arab is rejected by the majority of Palestinians living within the Green Line. The term purposefully erases Palestinian identity.

This one says 19% rather than 4%, which I'm much more inclined to believe.
