Bibi, upon being convicted for corruption, tried to reform the Israeli judiciary (which led to mass protests) to cement himself in power right before the attacks last year. Now Israelis kowtow to him and blindly follow his lead. How convenient!

Right. This is politics. Martial law would have meant the judiciary is irrelevant.

You're splitting hairs. Both are attempts to silence opposition by breaking the rules.

FDR was unstoppable except for when he tried to pack the courts.

You're calling the line between civilian rule and martial law a hair?

FDR never attempted a coup d'etat.

He was not convicted for corruption, he's on trial for corruption.

And Israelis don't kowtow to him at all, the same Israelis who were out protesting the judicial reform, the largest protests in Israeli history, are still very much against him.
