Highlights include:
The survey was conducted by one of the HMs at the request of Penn State University, among 1,005 respondents who constitute a representative sample of the Jewish population in Israel.
To the question "Do you support the claim that the IDF, when conquering an enemy city, should act in a manner similar to the way the Israelites acted when they conquered Jericho under the leadership of Joshua, that is,* kill all its inhabitants*?" 47% of all respondents responded in the affirmative.
...82% of those surveyed expressed support for the forced expulsion of residents of the Gaza Strip, and 56% supported the forced expulsion of Arab citizens of Israel. In the 2003 survey, the positive answers to these questions were “only” 45% and 31%, respectively.
...69% of secularists support the forcible expulsion of Gaza residents, and 31% of them see the extermination of Jericho residents as a precedent that the IDF should adopt.
...66% of those aged 40 and under support the deportation of Arab citizens of Israel, and 58% want to see the IDF do what Joshua did in Jericho.
...It is difficult to find anyone who would refuse clearly illegal orders, such as starving hundreds of thousands, creating extermination zones, or bombing densely populated residential neighborhoods. Only 9% of men under 40, the main group from which regular and reserve servicemen in Gaza come, rejected all the ideas of deportation and extermination that were presented to them.
I wasn't sure what "Joshua did to Jericho", and I was unsurprised to find out that the story ends like this: "Following God's law, the Israelites killed every man and woman, the young and the old, as well as the oxen, sheep, and donkeys. Only Rahab, her parents, brothers and all "those who belonged to her" were spared. They were incorporated into Israel."
What a repulsive society. Completely irredeemable. A stain on humanity and history.
israel is back to bombing Yemen, killing at least 35
death to israel, forever
