    The Israeli public are in support of the genocide. This isn’t a Netanyahu problem any more than nazi germany was a hitler problem. Polls from both this and the last time Israel bombed Gaza had <5% of Israeli Jews saying the IDF is bombing gaza too much.

      I’ve looked at 3 separate polls, none of which listed the number of respondents, which calls every bit of it into question. In my opinion of course.

      Via Pew Research

      A new Pew Research Center survey finds that 39% of Israelis say Israel’s military response against Hamas in Gaza has been about right, while 34% say it has not gone far enough and 19% think it has gone too far.

      I did find a <5% figure, on the same page

      Israeli Arabs are much more likely than Jews to say the country’s military response has gone too far (74% vs. 4%).

      Just a bit of context

        Yes, that was the survey and the very data point I was talking about. There’s similar numbers for surveys done during the 2012 and 2006 operations.

        Turns out 90% of the Israeli “left” are the national kind of “socialists”.

          Yeah idk why they even posted this, so 34% of Israelis think there hasn’t been enough genocide? If you really chosen people I cant wait til the lord takes you back.

            I thought it was interesting data, so I put it in a reply.

            Don’t be an antisemite.
