Israelis (not Jews) who protest the genocide only do so because it didn't bring back the hostages. They don't give a shit otherwise.

I'm as jaded as anyone on social media, but I do believe there are Israelis that oppose Netanyahu and his murderous regime.

I understand if the families only care about the hostages, as they have a personal grievance. But I don't believe every Israelite is blind to the horror.

Polls suggest that they are 10% or less of the population though there is a severe crackdown on dissent in Israel now

Yeah and with the effectiveness of the Mossad, who is going to admit to operating the regime. Imagine if the gestapo had that kind of surveillance possibilities

If they could do a genocide without costing any Israeli lives, they would in a heartbeat.

What about minors who were born in Israel? What about Israeli expats who moved to other countries in protest?

Are those the people protesting? No, so who knows what you’re on about.

I thought we were talking about the specific protesters this article is about.

To the best of my knowledge, most of the protests—and all of the large ones—in Israel this past year have not been about Palestinian lives or self-determination.

However, there have indeed been a few small Israeli anti-Zionist protests in Israel, despite the risks. Israel’s ‘anti-Zionists’ brave police beatings, smears to demand end to war

I hope their colony falls apart from within
