I do my best to always use the word Zionist before the word Israeli.
Israel’s secularism is irrelevant to the overall racist ideology of Zionism that permeates Israeli society.
Just an average mammal doing average mammal things.

I’m not referring to powerless, mouth-breathing, NEETs who normally lurk forums.
But I’m referring to comments from actual members of the Israeli Knesset, public statements from people like the OP, printed editorials in mainstream publications, and modern Israeli celebrities.
When you read through the translations not meant for western audiences - the racism pops out disturbingly. It’s such a part of their culture that they don’t even notice it as such. Zionists really don’t view people in the West Bank or Gaza as humans.
A few months ago I started using Google Translate to read what Israelis are saying amongst each other in their mainstream publications and forums.
My. God. Levels of entitlement and racism that would make a Klansman blush.
Sure, a lot of them want a cease-fire to get the hostages back … and most don’t like Netanyahu … but the average Israeli Zionist is a racist monster.
Poe’s law is an adage of Internet culture which says that, without a clear indicator of the author’s intent, any parodic or sarcastic expression of extreme views can be mistaken by some readers for a sincere expression of those views.
And they still get most everything they want; whereas when Dems are in charge they have to make up obscure reasons (example: Oh Noe!!! The Parlimentarian won’t let us do it!!!111) why they can’t pass popular legislation.
Those silly commies don’t understand that you have to bail out capitalists when they fail.
Empty threat is empty.
“Life Coach” is a wonderful job for people with spouses who can support them.
Oh! Well nevermind, then.
Please proceed.

More like: “My ancestors ate chickpeas … therefore, that falafel is mine!”
Thing is: There’s plenty Hamas & related groups did on Oct 7th to enrage a population - no exaggeration is necessary.
However, there ISN’T enough to justify a genocide … especially since Israelis have been torturing Palestinians for decades.
Israel needs to de-humanize the locals to the point where the population can justify an ethnic cleansing. Hence: Ridiculous accusations of using breasts as foot-balls and mass rape.
“Israel offered an evolving account of the incident as the day progressed.”
Awesome way to say: Making up shit and seeing what sticks
… and 68, and 69, and 70, etc, etc, etc…
Anyone who would get enjoyment from watching this kind of event has a diseased soul. As has been said elsewhere: It’s BumFights with a higher budget.
They’re just going to go in and murder everyone that refuses or is unable to flee. We all know it’s going to happen.
Moreover: There will be no political consequences for any European or American policy-maker that is helping this massacre happen.
This is the end of the “Rules based order.” It wasn’t a very good system, but it provided a modicum of protection and humanity in a very brutal world.
Suggest you forward your fact-based info as an Amicus Curiae brief to the ICJ, and/or to Israeli barristers who will deeply appreciate your hard work on behalf of Zionism.
Otherwise … fuck off.
as part of an Israeli plan to construct a security zone just inside Gaza—to which Palestinians would be barred entry.
INSIDE Gaza. They already built their apartheid prison-wall inside Gaza, in violation of international law or Palestinian consent. Now they are going to take even more land for their concentration camp.
These are the types of cases where it pays to be lenient.
Without going deeply into the history & tactics of dealing with insurgencies: If the goal is social stability and reconciliation - it is best to be lenient the first time, but then be absolutely over-the-top brutal the second.
The point of the ICJ and laws against genocide and ethnic cleansing is to protect minorities, like, say, Jews.
So if they’re saying that those post WWII rules are now null and void… then there’s nothing to protect them once the US Empire either withdraws or loses interest in providing cover.
As best I can tell, the most racist zionists are usually American-born Israelis.
