A new survey showing that 82 percent of Jewish Israelis support the expulsion of Gazans was met with disbelief among those who stubbornly believe that the extremists are outliers. But these trends are as consistent as they are shocking
The Israeli media has been full of overt calls for and endorsements of just outright genocide for over a year now.
At one point a prime time media show was 'debating' just fucking nuking Gaza.
Israeli social media has also been absolutely full of average people with genocidal rhetoric for over a year.
... They just say it in Hebrew, not English... most of the time.
This isn't suprising to anyone who can use google translate, or read supplied English subtitles/captions.
As a Native American my heart goes out to all Palestinians effected by these ignorant Zionist we must be better than this we can be better than this.
My understanding is that Israeli TV is hugely responsible for making this mainstream. Just like in Rwanda where radio played a huge role in the genocide.
It's almost as if genocide scholars have been warning about a series of patterns over the last couple of years...
Shocking. Israel has successfully dehumanized the entire Palestinian population.
This was over a year ago:
"Israeli government accounts on the social media site X have been posting a video with a quote from a freed hostage, in which she says that “there are no innocent civilians” in Gaza."
This just in: The country that has been doing ethnic cleansing of the Palestinians for 77 years is still okay with doing ethnic cleansing.
Absolutely disgusting. Our common ancestors are rolling over in their graves at their inhumanity.
They’ve literally been doing this shit since they pushed the Palestinians out of the way almost eighty fucking years ago. Of course the population is okay with it.
It'd be more surprising if the ingroup of an established ethnostate weren't hitlerites.
as someone with Israeli friends, I always figured this to be the case. they bemoan having to think about bomb shelters because of the occasional rocket that gets fired over into israel. they legitimately believe that Muslim countries hate them, and Muslims in general want to kill them. they live in the Old testament of the Bible, and anything that happens to Gaza is the will of God.
Holocaust in actio
Yeah, this is has been obvious for...30 years now? This is only shocking to ostriches
Lebensraum
You build a state out of colonialism, you get a state of colonialists.
It's an oversimplification, but it's like an older brother and a younger brother sharing a room. They hate each other. They're always messing with each other's stuff. The older brother knows better, but he's angry and tends to be abusive. The younger brother knows he shouldn't pick a fight, but can't help himself. They've both been fighting so long that each feels justified in hurting the other.
Who's at fault is the wrong question. Is it the 7 year old? He's 7. Is it the 12 year old? He's a kid too, just bigger and stronger. Both lack the maturity and empathy to be in charge and have the run of things. They've both proven they're entirely incapable of being fair or kind to each other.
It's the parents' fault for letting it happen. Or in this case, enabling both kids and giving them tips and tricks for how to fight better.
We can't expects Israel or Palestine to be the adults in the room. They aren't. They can't. We can't expect ourselves to be the adults in the room. We're watching these kids beat themselves bloody for our amusement.
Until someone puts their foot down and says enough is enough, nothing will change, but the person who says that and lays down their weapons probably gets killed. So this won't end until one side exterminates the other.
I can't trust a poll that claims nearly universal support for a Genocidal government. A phony poll like that would be exactly the kind of propaganda an immoral government would spread.
Here in America, if the MAGA Nazi government claimed 82% supported them, I would literally laugh at it.
Governments like Israel and MAGA can't be trusted with anything. They are ALWAYS lying.
The thing is: I can understand them.
If you are part of a minority that was trampled on for a long, long period of time, being targeted for anhiliation and now, having a somewhat safe nation for not even 80 years within a sea of other nations wanting to destroy them... well, i absolutely can understand them to ensure their safety whatever it takes. Yeah, it may not be pretty (or to be more precise: Often outright gross), it may not be "fair"... but i can understand that they don't want to take any chances.
This poll is disgusting
Why do you inquiry people based on their religion, and not their social class or nationality ? Or their implication in the settlements ? They may have interesting numbers their, but this poll decided to racialize the conflict.
Why shall we trust a poll in fascist state at war, that conclude that the leader have the support of the nationality of that fascim ? That really seems like propaganda.
There's some weird looking Haredi Jews waving their arms and blabbering something about Materialism in that 18 percent.
