Is there a modern antecedent in the imperial core for these types of riots?

If you want a better approximation, a little further back in history, look into the time pro-Confederacy protesters tore apart New York City so badly that Lincoln had to pull Union troops away from Gettysburg to stop them from burning down a black charity orphanage (not exaggerating). https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/New_York_City_draft_riots

Even within the imperialist regime, I feel like there is intense debate about whether Israel should start a 2/3 front war. They are biting off more than they can chew. Surely some of the more level-headed American military members remember how badly America lost in war games against Iran. A full-scale Iranian war would cripple global oil supplies. It would clog the arteries of empire.

I really want to know who’s in charge of US foreign policy right now. Is Blinken calling all the shots? Or is he still taking orders from Biden? Are they trying to start a regional war before Kamala comes in and gets rid of Blinken? Real liberal fascist infighting hours going on behind the scenes, I bet.
