In a week in which President Trump has veered from threatening to wipe out Iranian civilization to declaring a cease-fire, Congress is out of session and lawmakers with the power to declare war are mostly in the dark.

At least 17 people were arrested Saturday as Israeli police violently cracked down on an antiwar protest in Tel Aviv, where hundreds had gathered condemning the U.S.-Israeli war on Iran. Israeli peace activist Alon-Lee Green, who helped organize the protest and was among those arrested, says the Israeli public's initial support for the war has rapidly declined in recent weeks, as the quick, decisive engagement that was promised has not come to fruition. "I think the Israeli public is waking up. A lot of people are angry. It's been three years now of constant war. People are tired. People want different realities for their families." Speaking from a courthouse where he is filing for a restraining order against right-wing extremists who have harassed him at his home, Green calls for an end to Israel's "forever war" and says that both Israeli law enforcement and right-wing groups have violated peace activists' constitutional right to protest.
