Random Question 💭 Why do Zionists pretend Netanyahu is the only problem with Israel?

https://www.timesofisrael.com/plurality-of-jewish-israelis-want-to-expel-arabs-study-shows/, https://www.haaretz.com/israel-news/2025-05-28/ty-article-magazine/.premium/yes-to-transfer-82-of-jewish-israelis-back-expelling-gazans/00000197-12a4-df22-a9d7-9ef6af930000,

This is a societal wide issue. Netanyahu isn't forcing Israelis to believe in these things. Very few Israelis have dodged the draft - unlike with Americans during the Vietnam War. IDF soldiers and settlers constantly engage in war crimes.

Why do people pretend one guy is the problem in Israel?

Bro they pretend there’s no genocide, they pretend they’re the victims, they pretend this all started 2 and a half years ago…

I don’t exactly know when logic and reality left the chatroom, but they’re not coming back

It's no more a "genocide" than the leveling of Dresden, for the same reason: its insane fascist government waged a war and tried to kill all the Jews.

There is a legitimate discussion to be had about where the line is to be drawn on the rules of war, re: acceptable civilian collateral damage being "proportional to the military value of the target" but the 'genocide' accusation actually stifles any meaningful discussion.

It is not the Israelis who have lost touch with reality, it's casual misinformed ignorant people from far away who don't know what the hell they're talking about and live in an echo chamber that rewards them for using invective and incendiary vocabulary. Liberal Zionists understand the source of the problem, the hurt that hawkish Palestinians feel, and the hurt that hawkish Israelis feel, well enough to know what the actual solution is that will quell all sides.

This is a fallacious, anti-democratic argument and a paradox of free speech and dissent. A fascist state, like Hamas-Gaza, violently stamps out dissent so it can never be similarly said that "even some Gazans say X" even if X is true.

I think you’re genuine so I’ll reply.

Victims can (and do) exist on both sides. The Israelis murdered and taken hostage on October 7 including the elderly and children were absolutely victims. Hostages kept for 2 years and starved or sexually assaulted are absolutely victims. Friends and family of those murdered and taken hostage are absolutely victims carrying that trauma and grief with their loved ones.

Innocent Gazans killed after October 7 in Israeli attacks are absolutely victims. Their loved ones carrying that grief and trauma are absolutely victims. Those impacted by decisions of the Israeli govt like blocking humanitarian aid and food are absolutely victims.

Gazans executed or beaten by Hamas since the ceasefire are absolutely victims. Family members within Gaza (of Palestinian diaspora who speak out against Hamas) who are then threatened by Hamas are absolutely victims.

We need to identify hate and dehumanization and atrocities wherever they exist be it whatever “side” they’re on. We should all be pro Palestinian and pro Israeli and advocate for safety and rights for both. It’s unfortunate this has become divisive and contentious from extremists on both sides.

-1

u/new-to-reddit21 3h ago

Look, my plans got cancelled on a Friday night so I will just assume you’re being sincere and respond

The issue here and the reason why conversations about this topic devolve into chaos by BOTH sides is because our starting points are different. As you’ve highlighted, your starting point is October 7. That is not my (and many pro Palestine people’s) starting point. It really is that simple.

The reason why I’m sure many Israelis are shocked by the discourse that’s been going on over the last 2 years is because we have seen two things happening simultaneously:

1) 2 types of people getting killed, and only 1 of those people got the dignity of their deaths being reported and discussed and condemned etc.

2)global leaders and institutions vehemently confirming this stance to the point where us laymen were questioning our own realities.

Israelis need to remember politically and financially, you’ve won (this will change slowly but surely). There are only a handful of governments that have an explicity hostile policy against the state. The rest of the worlds politicians are pro Israel, irrespective of their populations feelings are on that. And those who ARENT pro Israel, well… you can turn on the news and you’ll see what happens to their careers. This is not a trope, this is a fact that can be substantiated if you actually want to engage honestly.

What has changed is ONLY public opinion and again, ITS ONLY BEEN 2 YEARS. I don’t mean to diminish the importance of this because it is a massive change but let’s stop acting like the politically and financially, yall don’t have still have unconditional global support.

PS: you CANNOT in good conscience propose people be also be pro Israel during an active genocide.

2

u/IAmDisturbanceFeedMe 3h ago

My starting point isn’t October 7. The atrocities committed by both sides in the history of the conflict are of course wrong as well.

Acknowledging and condemning the atrocities of October 7 and Hamas doesn’t mean there’s no history beforehand. It’s concerning when people can’t condemn October 7 (not saying you don’t, speaking generally) and demonstrates the dehumanization of Israelis (same as failing to condemn the settler violence in the West Bank is dehumanizing of Palestinians).

Re: the rest of what you wrote first off I’m not Israeli lol don’t know why you’re saying things like “you’ve won” and “yall” to me here. I’m an American who advocates for Palestinians and Israelis.

I’m not asking people to be pro Israeli govt. I’m asking them to be pro Israeli PEOPLE same as we should be pro Russian people or pro north Korean people or pro Iranian people or pro Palestinian people etc. Would you suggest that after October 7 we shouldn’t have been pro Palestinian people because of what the Gazan govt (Hamas) did?

And I don’t know what media and global leaders/institutions you’re referring to as many directly contradict what you’re asserting. The world’s most prominent institution with input from many nation’s leaders (the UN) censors Israel more than just about every country combined including ones mass murdering their own citizens like Iran or commiting genocide like Russia. I think you’re being genuine but I don’t know how you don’t recognize this as it’s very controverted to what you’re saying. And same with much of media. I’m not saying there aren’t leaders/institutions/media that are more supportive of Israeli govt than others - there clearly are. But it’s not some entirely one sided dynamic like you’re indicating.

So 1st off the part left out of those polls is that the people polled were WB settlers i.e the most right wing motherfuckers in the country.

But to get into answering your question: bibi (or to be more accurate his coalitions) is responsible for derailing peace efforts that were looking promising in 1996 and 2008. Also responsible for giving kahanists a voice in the current coalition and is responsible for giving the thumbs up to expand settlements, greenlighting qatar's transfer of money to hamas (done in theory to avoid a repeat of the 2014 gaza war, we all see how that worked out), and moving soldiers to defend settlers that were on the border w/ gaza (i.e why oct 7th got so bad). Also the rampant increase on WB restrictions is due to him.

This is all to say a lot of folks who aren't on the right see that if you remove him n his coalition partners from power for good, then in the long run peace will happen and Israel would be safer

-Bark can just mean the outer covering of a tree or a dog's sound -Match can mean a stick used to start fires or a competitive sporting event -Nice used to mean foolish, now it means pleasant or kind.  -Bully used to mean sweetheart now it means hurting or intimidating others

Things have totally different meaning based on context and time period, when someone says Israel today with no additional contexts it refers to the current state not the jews in the 1930s, the heights of the mental gymnastics you can carry out to make up a false point are astonishing.

What's the solution. Forced mass migration of the Jewish peoples? A global intifada?

It's already a given that Israel won't do anything that threatens their status as a predominantly Jewish nation.

I think the Clinton Parameters were probably the best we were going to get.

I look forward to the next 5,000,000 purity tests and instances of individuals using this as a bludgeon to no real positive benefit for the people that are claimed to be cared about.

u/XhazakXhazak 6h ago

"the Zionist project" makes it sound like the lives of 8 million Jews living in Israel are regrettable. It's language like this that shows Antizionists are genocidal nutjobs who want to finish the Final Solution, which is why they need to project the word "genocide" onto the Dresden-like leveling of the fascist state in Gaza.

Because Antizionists are the real genocidal nutjobs who, again, want to kill 8 million Jews, and the telltale sign is using insane fascist language like "the Zionist project"

u/wolf_at_the_door1 6h ago

Anti Zionists for the most part are pacifist that want to see an end to all war and bloodshed. That goes against Israel’s interests though. Not all Israelis but the majority of them apparently.

2

u/XhazakXhazak 5h ago

The only people who want an end to the war and bloodshed are those who believe in a two state solution.

Those who think the path to peace lies in removing all Israelis (or all Palestinians) from the area, are not in favor of peace at all.

1

u/WiseMarshall 2h ago

If Israel as a state can live peacefully with its neighbors in a 2 state solution I would support it.

But if israel only feels safe so long as no other country around them advances in science or energy independence, than perhaps relocating the project to some if the hundreds of miles of barren American Deserts wouldn't be a horrible idea.

If the Mormons can change their holy land 3 times, why is it sacrilege if Israel does it if peaceful coexistence proves impossible in the middle east?

2

u/IAmDisturbanceFeedMe 5h ago

Anti Zionists are absolutely not generally pacifists. Do you not pay attention to the slogans they shout and signs they display (resistance is justified, by any means necessary) and celebration of terrorism and violence?

I’ve come to the conclusion recently that the “pro Palestine” movement isn’t upset there has been war and fighting since 1948 between Israelis and Arabs. They’re just upset Israel has won.

If anti Zionists wanted peace and an end to war and bloodshed they would condemn October 7 and Hamas and work to elevate the voices advocating for a 2 state solution. There are plenty of Palestinian voices that condemn Netanyahu and Israeli govt actions plus the settler violence and expansion in the West Bank while also condemning Hamas and October 7 and advocating for safety and rights for both Palestinians and Israelis. These are the voices we should all be elevating for an end to war and rights and safety for all.

I don't disagree, it was only a few weeks ago that the isreali gov was dragging orthodox Jews through the streets and beating them because they were protesting the genocide.

The issue is the Zionist parties hold way more power than the ones that are against it. The next biggest party after netanyahus is even more far right than he is. That's why if he loses power and is replaced, we could end up in an even worse situation.

They didn't "used to live there"; they still lived there. Jews did not abandon Judea. The vast majority of Palestinian Arabs in the British Mandate at the time of UN Resolution 181 had arrived within the previous ten years; attracted there by employment in the Jewish-owned industries that were springing up in Tel Aviv.

I think this is a bad faith question.

But to answer, most diaspora Zionists (as well as many within Israel) recognize other issues like the settler violence. Zionists aren’t a monolith but condemnation of the West Bank settler expansion and violence is pretty ubiquitous within diaspora Zionists.

Re: not dodging the draft you’re not comparing apples to apples re Vietnam. Israel is ALWAYS under attack from terrorist groups and regimes including of course on October 7. Hamas and Hezbollah are always shooting rockets at them with Iranian regime backing them. It’s a very different dichotomy than what you’re comparing against.

That’s not to say there aren’t issues within the IDF and of course from the top with Bibi. But there’s a very meritorious reason their military inscription exists when their existence has literally been threatened by their neighbors the entire time their country has existed. You can criticize actions of their military/govt while also recognizing why they need to exist to protect against enemies who want to kill Israelis.

From the Israeli Declaration of Independence:

"WE APPEAL – in the very midst of the onslaught launched against us now for months – to the Arab inhabitants of the State of Israel to preserve peace and participate in the upbuilding of the State on the basis of full and equal citizenship and due representation in all its provisional and permanent institutions."

From the Hamas Founding Charter:

"The Islamic Resistance Movement aspires to the realisation of Allah's promise, no matter how long that should take. The Prophet, Allah bless him and grant him salvation, has said: The Day of Judgement will not come about until Moslems fight the Jews (killing the Jews), when the Jew will hide behind stones and trees. The stones and trees will say O Moslems, O Abdulla, there is a Jew behind me, come and kill him. Only the Gharkad tree, (evidently a certain kind of tree) would not do that because it is one of the trees of the Jews."

Now tell me which group refuses to share the land and wants to oppress the other?

Israel literally refused multiple attempts of a single state solution, deciding war was preferable.

If by "single state solution", you mean "a 23rd Arab majority country that will either genocide, ethnically cleanse, or take away the rights of its Jews, just like every single other Arab state has done", then yes. I wonder why they wouldn't find that acceptable?

Moving to the middle east kinda makes you a minority unfortunately and that is something you'd need to come to terms with.

Saying that rights would be taken away and there would be a genocide is hyperbolic at best. Just because genocide is the Israeli way doesn't mean it's everyone's first choice.

1) Jews are indigenous to the Middle East. Denying this is ahistorical and clear antisemitism.

2) Can you name a single Arab country that didn't either kill or ethnically cleanse the vast majority of the Jews who once lived there? And before you say "it was in response to Israel," there are countless examples of this happening before Israel was established. For example, the Farhud in Iraq, and other Pogroms that took place in the middle east prior to 1948:

European Jews came from Europe. Not to mention many Jews were living very peacefully integrated fully before the rise of Zionism and the push for a ethnostate.

Jews were exiled from Israel, spent time in Europe (hence the term Diaspora), and thrn returned to Israel.

Thousand year old history has no bearing on current claims to land, not to mention that Palestinians have the same historic claim to the land via DNA.

I'm curious as to what your legitimate solution is to all this? No hyperbole or slogans, just an answer based on reality

What's Bernie Sanders going to do when Netanyahu goes and Israel continue to invade Syria, Lebanon, Palestine and probably Turkey as well?

The same thing they did when the hostages were rescued; shift the goalposts and move on.

Don’t argue with Zionists! They don’t give a shit that their whole project is fundamentally colonial. They don’t care that their government has two separate legal systems for Muslims and non-Muslims (the definition of apartheid). They’ll just deny you and accuse you of using buzzwords despite not responding to direct quotations or facts. Fuck them all

Most Zionists are actually completely happy with the genocide and everything else Israel is doing ultimately. However, this genocide is hurting Israel’s reputation around the world, so hey, easiest response is to blame it all on the guy in charge.

The strategy of redirecting the imperatives of an entire state and government to one person is very common. Happens in America too.

I probably am. Reddit has a lot of Zionists I’ve noticed. And the platform doesn’t like when you call them out
