Israeli protesters during an judicial overall protests outside the Knesset in Jerusalem, February 20, 2023. (Photo: Ilia Yefimovich/dpa via ZUMA Press/APA Images)The entire Israeli political spectrum is united in blasting Netanyahu for not continuing to attack Iran, and Israeli society agrees. The reason, to put it simply, is that Israelis are war junkies.

Israeli (derogatory)

Atleast seculars seem to have better opinions according to your graph

That is heart-breaking. How can people develop such hate and violence in their hearts?

I think it has to do with the fact that most of them were born in area surrounded by hostile adversaries who would wipe that out of existence given the first opportunity.

Even if they spent the next fifty years being as nice as possible to the people around them, they would be conquered and assimilated if the US ever pulled their funding. They have two options: war or Exodus.

A whole nation of genocidal maniacs. Just as racist and murderous as the Nazis.

There are a handful of decent humans there who oppose it all. They have protested and been beaten up.

Mostly young people. Not very many of them. But I think that's pretty courageous considering they are literally surrounded by wolves.

What must it be like to live in a country surrounded by insane fascist. ?

Oh... Nevermind I guess I know.

Well.

But at least most of my fellow U.S citizens aren't in support of it.

I think Israel must feel like literally everyone is maga except like 2 people you know.

Even the Nazis weren't "a whole nation of genocidal maniacs." In both Israel and Nazi Germany there is/was opposition to the atrocities committed by their leadership, just not enough. In Israel in particular "do you support comically evil thing" polls tend to get 60-80% support, except the Iran war which at its outset had 93% support. That's not a whole nation of genocidal maniacs; that's a nation of mostly genocidal maniacs.

The poll they cite only polled 500 people and the "Israel Democracy Institute" who conducted the poll was founded by a Trump mega donor.

Mondoweiss loses credibility by releasing this article without pointing out the obvious polling issue.

They also failed to shout out the organizations that have been protesting daily against the war! Standing Together עומדים ביחד has been organizing protests since day one of the operation.

Mondoweiss is showing itself as an unfair propagandist publication who is more interested in clicks and spicy headlines than actually giving a real picture.

Misinformation. There's literally Israeli Kinesset members that oppose the genocide in Gaza and the war with Iran. They are the minority, but they do exist.

Not to mention the Israeli citizens refusing to enlist in the military, who are sent to prison.

Israel is a sick and diseased society.

So is the US. It's terrifying what propaganda will do to a population.

Inhuman savages.

Then they'll claim people hate them "because we're Jews".
