Maybe let jews speak of what represents them. Definite majority of jews have direct family connection to Israel as well as cultural ties.

If 75% of Israel’s population are jews, then who do you refer to, when you identify the people of Israel with their government? Do you mean the Arabs, the Druze and the Samaritans? Probably not.




I think most jews have refused to do aliyah, and jews are a common sight in protests against US-Israeli atrocities.

I also think you mean israeli palestinians, not "Arabs", which is a slur in everyday israeli discourse. It's a society with the informal slogan 'death to arabs', as you probably know.

Most israeli jews agree with apartheid and the genocidal politics of the state they live under. There are regular polls that show this, e.g. from the Israel Democracy Institute. Very few take action against the state on this issue, and the large anti-Bibi protests are general opposition protests, they basically want a deal to get hostages and prisoners out, and then resumed genocide, i.e. the line of the parliamentary opposition.


so it it state of israel, or society with a slogan death to arabs? can you decide? For me it’s clear from everything you wrote, so don’t sugar it up with "it’s about state". Here you clearly blame majority of Israelis of wanting a genocide. A generalization like this with so few arguments show your actual true motivation – hate against israelis and jews.


Among israeli jews that's the mainstream position. According to recent polling only 3% say that it would be immoral to ethnically cleanse the Gaza strip, and 80% support it.

You'll come across the slogan a lot if you start to consume israeli mass media.


lies, lies and lies, exaggerations and hateful lies, like everything else you wrote.
