I dunno…the company I work for has a Tel Aviv office and there’s an Israeli on my team. We are always talking about this shit, how disgusting it is, how he got a black eye at the last protest for daring to call Muslims people, etc etc.

There is a large amount of fascists in Israel - it is a European colonial state after all - but painting everyone with the same brush is not it, especially people that were born there and are trying to make it better for everyone. Like any large group, they are not homogenous and portraying any group as homogenously evil is dangerous to the extreme.

I’d suggest reading some of the “New Historians” to get a sense of the wide range of people that live in the colony known as Israel. Ilan Pappe is a good place to start imo.

(Edit: spelling)

Statistically speaking there probably isn’t a nicer country if you were going to do a Hiroshima or Nagasaki.
