justify this genocide

WTH? WTF is wrong with people? I was a kid when I read that and it already freaked me out with my limited comprehension and exposure of world history. How can anyone read that and think "well done, let's do it again?"

I speak Hebrew, and forced the algorithms to show me Israeli social media. Lots of those “civilians” are better off as radioactive dust.

"Shitty people deserve shit" is one thing; "everyone who is behind BAD imaginary line or part of BAD ethnicity deserves to die!" is another fucking thing entirely.

Dial back the fucking nationalist kool-aid.

Most in Nazi time not protest even though knew concentration camp. Because social pressure too high.

You know I know a group of people that feel the same way about the Palestinians.

Maybe we stop mass murdering people? I swear there's some psy-op going on to convince people that people cannot change. Keeps us nice and divided. The plebs can't rise up if they are too busy killing each other

Service in the IDF is mandatory, and most Israelis are native-born.

I view it the same way I view Nazi Germany. All Wehrmacht conscripts are valid targets as long as they are serving and Nazi Germany remains extant. But that doesn't mean mass ethnic cleansing, or worse, counter-genocide, is the solution after Nazi Germany is dismantled.

War criminals - regardless of how many there are - must be dealt with on an individual basis. Fuck all of them, but fuck them for the exceptional act of being war criminals, not for being conscripts.

That is a good point. I mean, that's the attitude Israel has towards the kids in Palestine, right?

Even a small scale nuclear war would do horrible shit to the planet climate wise not to mention the economic fallout. We're already seeing the knock-on effects of the Hormuz shit. Now imagine those producer countries nuked to shit and instead of a temporary problem it becomes a permanent problem.

Yeah, like if we just indiscriminately bombed an entire country, then prevented anyone from sending aide while simultaneously bombing their hospitals. That would be bad. Then if we used snipers to kill their children, imprisoned the rest, then raped and abused them in detention, that would be pretty bad huh? In fact, you could say a society that condones such actions deserves to be destroyed...

Exactly. Don't kill innocent children.

Really? You don't see the connection to Hamas? You're just mindlessly repeating their slogans like "kill all israelis," and you don't know why I would bring them up when I point out that your comment gives the lie to anyone saying "they don't really mean 'kill all israelis'"?

Also Israel has compulsory military service for nearly all citizens, which means that essentially if you're of age and an Israeli, you're not a civilian.

That's false. They have compulsory public service, which can be in civilian positions, and they have placement tests to determine who goes where. Some of the highest scoring people become teachers.

And lots of Israeli civilians hate their government and have been protesting the war. Framing them all as IDF is ignorant.
