While the comment may be a little extreme, it’s important to note that all of the Israeli government’s actions have a rock solid 80% and higher approval rate from the Israeli people.
I certainly wouldn’t say the 20% should die just because most of their neighbours are some of the most awful people to ever be born. But I think this context may shift some views of comments like this one.
After 9/11, many Americans supported the invasion of Iraq and Afghanistan, and were making jokes about nuking them (a country that had nothing to do with the attack, by the way).
So were Americans fair targets?
Israelis are fed the with continuous far-right BS propaganda. I bet they believe Lebanese pray for their annihilation. This is yet another proof that controlling media work, and therefore democracies cannot function if media are not independent. No country, no people is safe for that.
Dont forget they have mandatory military service with almost nil resistance. There are very few actual civilians in israel. All adults are implicated, more so than even in the USA or almost anywhere else on earth.
Which is a claim they falsely make about Palestinians. And israel does not spare the children in this characterization, even while they breed and raise their own children to be war fodder and terrorists.
Oh, I thought Israel was such a colourful and diverse secular society. But all of a sudden, it’s calling for ethnically cleansing only the Jewish part of it…

Lemmy - where an outright endorsement of the wholesale ethnic cleansing of jews is “a little extreme”
Instead of cooking up a fantastical future tragedy in your own mind, read the words which are written.

not jews, israelis
stll a cleansing but based on “nationality” (adherance to oppressive regime) instead of a religion
Easy block for anyone calling for any ethnic cleansing. Liberals are just as bad as MAGA it turns out.
