It's more so their government and the people supporting it. There are plenty of Israelis not in love with this and even protesting it. It's how I also dislike what's happening to the Uyghur, Tigrayan, Darfur, Rohingya people in China, Ethiopia, Sudan, and Myanmar. Unfortunately there are currently multiple genocides and the perpetrators should be held accountable.
Over 80% of Jewish Israelis support ethnically cleansing all of Gaza. 47% support killing every man, woman, and child

Wow.
My stomach dropped when I read this. I wonder if any of the percentages are skewed. Regardless if or if not, the support of the genocide I assume would still be pretty high.
That's pretty close to the amount of Germans who supported the nazis
So wipe em all out and the people who aren't in support are just unlucky by association?
Is that what happened to Nazi Germany or Apartheid South Africa?
no, there was no denazification
We can thank the Allies for that
But this fight is with Zionism (and arguably global capitalism). Israelis can choose to be anti-zionist, Adi Callai is a great example. But that's only one aspect of the revolution, and not one worth waiting on. The same way French soldiers defected to fight for Algerian emancipation, Israelis can defect to fight for Palestinian emancipation. The resistance continues regardless
We are not cursed to repeat bad decisions. We can use our will to create better outcomes.
I really thought that you were going to say "We are not cursed to repeat bad decisions. We can use our will to create worse outcomes."
That would be funny
Like actual denazification? Yes
The genocide needs to be stopped first. That sounds like a better outcome to me. Because right now, we're still actively funding the genocide. And Israel has only become more fascist generation to generation.
Source on French defections in Algeria? Sounds fascinating.
The Wretched of the Earth or other books by Franz Fanon
Hopefully all the genocides that are happening currently although only one seems to be getting attention.
If you're so terminally online you've never participated in organizing or protesting, yeah I can see why you have that perspective
You just sound like a Zionist at this point, so congrats on that
Protests here are dangerous. It's not fun to watch someone's head explode and their brains splattered in front of you when snipers start firing into the crowd. All nations are worthy of criticism, all nations have skeletons in their closet, no nation is worthy of unquestioning worship. If that view makes me a Zionist then I guess I am a Zionist but I don't believe it does.
As one soul to another I hope you are well and I wish for the wellbeing of all people.
