problem is not Netanyahu, it is not Ben Gvir. it is the white supremacist mindset of Israeli public.

Remember that the Holocaust had majority support in Germany too.

Saying Israel is like Nazi Germany is absolutely not a metaphor. There are more similarities than there are differences, they just switched up which ethnic group is the target.

Same thing in the USA. Trump is a symptom. He could drop dead tomorrow and somehow take half of the admin with him, and the problem would still be there. The underlying problem is that roughly 1/3rd of your population is frothing at the mouth to slaughter another 1/3rd while the final third stand by and watch silently. This is not something you can fix with elections alone.

I can only find articles about the poll, but not the poll itself. Anyone got more luck?

Edit: I honestly think this shouldn't be posted without a solid source. It could be fake and would serve to 1) make the Israelian government able to say "look, we have that much support from the public to continue the genocide" and 2) further the divide of the actual people living in the whole region regardless of made up borders.

82% of israelis want to ethnicly cleanse every gazan, which is a crime.
56% want to eject every non jewish israeli citizen from Israel, regardless of their citizenship.

And about half want to outright murder every palestinian regardless of age or guilt of anything. Its a country chock full of violent terrorists and a whole lot of fans of murder of innocents. Those are much worse statistics than nazi germany had. Just 18% of Israelis belong somewhere besides chained in a cell.

But dont get caught saying anything bad about zionism or having a political opinion that runs counter to Israel's will. Then youd be an antisemite, which is worse than being a war criminal, evidently.

Its not even a country, its a military occupation zone and the people a colonialists. So yeah what a shocker that people in the ZOZ (Zionist Occupation Zone) are extremely racist. Im in the ZOZ rn (long story, my parents thought it would "turn me into a Zionist") and yesterday they celebrated the brutal occupation of east Jerusalem. In that parade people waved "Israeli" flags happily alongside Kahanism flags, even Zehut showed up (far-right "Libertarian" Zionists).

For sure, but netanyahu is also very much a problem.

Schrödingers only Democracy in the Middle East.

Government is legitimate because it enacts the majority will of the people, but the government statements and actions are not representative of the majority of the people...

Unfortunately i am afraid we will see mostly the same shit like in post war Germany when everything is over. Denial, pretending to not having known, claiming to have been mislead, just following orders...

Ethno-states gonna ethno-state.

Durable peace in the middle east is not possible while the state of Israel exists.

@faab64 The Government could not do what it has been doing for decades, if the people did not vote for them. @palestine@lemmy.ml @palestine@a.gup.pe @israel

in case you're wondering, here "white"="majority," not the definition used politically in most countries. Retro-etymology being "blank," or "standard," like a sheet of paper without details. In Japan, for instance, white people are ethnically japanese. I point this out because in Israel the majority would not be considered white in many places in the world; Jews would elsewhere be considered a diverse conglomerate of ethnicities.

I normally advocate for terms like "racial supremacist" or "ethno-supremacist" in a context like this because people don't get nearly as defensive when they hear this, but white supremacy is catchy as a term I guess and so it perseveres.

Fuck Israel, genocidal scum!

It can be, and in fact is, more than one thing. In fact, all of these are even related closely. Wouldn't want people to mistakenly think your goal is to direct attention away from those who are most directly culpable for action when it comes to Genocide, that'd be... weird, right?

Source?

Israelis don't consider themselves White. Saying that the problem is "White Supremacy" shows that you're looking at the problem through a lens that is very conditioned for Western politics

@faab64 Not only Israel. I think it is widespread in every government having supported them after the ICJ warrants.
