CIA report warns of civil conflict and 'collapse' in Israel: Report Israel is at risk of internal collapse or civil war because of tensions among Israelis, an August report by CIA experts tasked with providing “alternative analysis” said, according to a report by Drop Site News published on Monday. The CIA report, titled “Fracture From Within", said that Israel faces a volatile situation ahead of 27 October elections, where Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu will be fighting for his political future.The authors noted that one of the most divisive Israeli political issues is the long-standing exemption from military service that ultra-Orthodox Israelis enjoy. The row has exposed deep divisions within Netanyahu's right-wing bloc and raised questions about whether he will have the support of two ultra-Orthodox parties: United Torah Judaism (UTJ) and Shas - his most dependable allies since he first became prime minister in 1996.While hundreds of thousands of reservists have been mobilised for Israel’s genocide in Gaza and wars on Lebanon, Syria and Iran, ultra-Orthodox men have historically been exempt from compulsory military service in order to pursue full-time religious studies in yeshivas.Read more: CIA report warns of civil conflict and 'collapse' in Israel: Report
