Occupied Palestine (Quds News Network)- A new poll has revealed alarming support among Israeli Jews for the ethnic cleansing in Gaza. The survey, published Thursday in Haaretz, shows that 82% of Jewish Israelis back the idea of expelling native Palestinians from the strip.
The poll was conducted in March by one of the researchers on behalf of Penn State University. It surveyed 1,005 Jewish respondents across Israel.
Support for forced expulsions has spiked. 82% support expelling all Palestinians from Gaza. Over half—56%—also back expelling Native Palestinians who are citizens of Israel. In 2003, support for these views was lower at 45% and 31%, respectively.
The trend is strongest among younger generations. Among Jewish Israelis under 40, 66% support expelling native Palestinian citizens, and 58% support repeating the Jericho conquest. Only 9% of men under 40—those most likely to serve in the army—rejected all notions of expulsion or genocide.
Israel is just begging for the world to hate Jews right now; I don’t fucking get this shit we’re a huge portion of these people’s grandparents not Holocaust survivors?
Israel indoctrinates them from their youth that if they don’t kill all the Arabs that the Arabs will kill them.
Pretty similar how Hitler told the Germans that the Jews were trying to eradicate all the white people.
Survey was 1005 people. I’d be interested to know how broad the demographics were.
Either way, disgusting.
Unless they’re asking the same thousand people every time, this is a good representation. I don’t think I’ve ever seen a single poll linked that doesn’t have similar numbers.
The colonial situation dehumanizes the colonized and the colonizer. While the colonized are treated worse than animals, the colonizers treat themselves like gods (and, in the process, turn into monsters).
Israel must be destroyed. From the river to the sea.
Sometimes you see a headline like this and you just have to stop for a moment and reflect on how mindboggling it is that genocidality could become so popular in a society. The fact is of course that this is the character of every genocide in history: genocides only happen if most people in a society passively or actively accept them. But when oneself is so far removed from that cultural context that enables this most horrible of crimes to happen, it becomes difficult to even fathom how a society could end up in a situation where one could meet ten people in the dominant group and find that nine of them want the marginalized group — largely children no less! — reduced to bags of nondescript red mush. Even the tenth person is probably still incredibly racist and a tacit supporter of genocide, just not an active supporter of it.
It feels cliché to mention how Zionist settlers are themselves to a pretty large extent descended from the survivors of pogroms and one of the worst genocides in human history, because the apparent irony of that is just not what makes the genocidality of so-called “Jewish” “Israelis” so horrifying, revolting, and tragic. People are not their great-grandparents, and Zionists, although they use Jewish aesthetics, are still a product of the cultural climate of Anglo settlerism and German volkism more than they are a product of anything Jewish. The Zionist settlers are, in a word, “not Jews”.
No, this is a human matter, not an ethnoreligious one. It’s a matter of me expecting to be able to look a member of my own species in the eyes and see a soul capable of empathy; all human beings are after all cousins if you go back far enough, and I would gladly welcome anyone as my own family. So even if people’s actions hurt others, I like to believe that people are largely just misguided and could be set on a better path, that people simply mean well but don’t always know how to do well.
But Zionists, in the way they talk, in the way they act, in the lack of any brightness in their eyes, there is just… no humanity left. Whatever humanity the Zionist settlers had was “left at the door” like shoes and coats when they decided to become settlers, and they’ll put their shoes and coats back on when the wretched, moribund system they benefit from finally collapses on them, which will be soon, God willing. And perhaps then, and only then, to paraphrase my own favorite ex-Zionist, ĉiu vidos en sia proksimulo nur homon kaj fraton.

“The oppressed want at any cost to resemble the oppressors.” (Paulo Freire, Pedagogy of the Opressed, 1968)
This is your brain on colonialism.
And the other 18% aren’t against it, they want a kinder version of it
I wonder what the poll would be if a global one asked if the state of Israel should be disolved and given BACK to the Palestinians, just a random musing.
Based on global reactions, I think there will be a minority of yes and no’s
Then the vast majority will be “I don’t care anymore”

Raise a generation or two on non-stop propaganda and that’s what you get. From very young age they get taught in school that the whole world hates all Jews for no reason. Even allies are just pretending and should not be trusted.
Plus mandatory military service, both genders.
Monsters. And while the have their dog in the white house, nothing will happen to them.
The Zionist Entity is a dog of the Amerikkkan empire (and its most rabid one at that), not the other way around.
When haven’t they had their dog in the white house?
You do realize they have been doing this for over 75 years right?
Nothing will happen to them because they are an integral part of US power in the region. It’s not about an individual in the white house. The last president was just as loyal (if not more) the majority of the house and senate are loyal to them, even the majority of the “disloyal” elected officials are only mildly opposed to specific actions.
Sorry. I didn’t mean to direct to an specific president. It applies to any US president. Trump is a bit more aggressive, but he is like this about anything.
A society can function only when the state of exception is applied appropriately and if there are punishments when there is overstepping,.
Israelis are conditioned into thinking that there are only the former and none of the latter.
and they are proven right
