A new argument says America and Europe are copying Israel's security-state model, and the warning is that this is bad for civil liberties everywhere.

• Naomi Klein's new book "End Times Fascism," written with Astra Taylor, describes an alliance of religious, tech, and ethno-nationalist movements that all assume the world is ending.
• Instead of fixing crises like climate change, rich countries are walling themselves off — Trump's "golden dome," Europe's hardened borders, billionaire bunkers in New Zealand and Argentina.
• Israel is cast as the business model: it built a thriving economy selling the tools of self-fortification, and other countries are now buying.
• ICE agents training with Israeli forces and lethal strikes on boats in the Caribbean are offered as signs the model has already arrived in the US.
• Christian Zionism is spreading well beyond America, with Israeli flags at Brazilian rallies and strong backing for Bolsonaro — rooted in the belief that blessing Israel brings blessings back.

Outlook: Expect more border hardening and security spending rather than action on the underlying crises driving the fear.
