Under the cover of heavy air strikes and artillery shelling, large Israeli ground forces directly and systematically attack homes and buildings used as shelters by displaced families, forcing everyone out at gunpoint.
The buildings, including UN schools and houses, are subsequently either razed or burned by Israeli soldiers to prevent people from returning.
Troops then separate men from women, before taking them to humiliating field interrogations and later abducting many of them to unknown locations.
Women and children are forced to head south of Jabalia refugee camp. Some were bombed and killed as they fled, according to media reports
Not op, but: The citizens aren’t all or always a reflection of government actions.
Trauma, real or perceived, can cause irrational behavior and beliefs.
Propaganda and methods of behavior control and modification are powerful. Fear of speaking out in a culture of vengeance.
Bibi et al are pure evil. That’s certain. IDF: evil. Some citizens: evil.
Some citizens: not evil
That said, the current state of Israeli governance no longer has any validity in any of its words or actions. It must be boycotted, embargoed, sanctioned, and dismantled.
Its leadership must face the judgment of their god for the abominations committed.
After they are judged at the Hague.
I wonder if much of Israel underwent a moral drain (kinda like a brain drain but a lot of those “not evil” people made the good decision to stop being part of an apartheid state), and young people are immediately indoctrinated either by their parents/schools at an early age or by the state (via military service) at 18. I am beginning to see how skewed and ugly the current ideological composition of Israel is.
Bibi is evil, but he’s absolutely a scapegoat for the evil of the Israeli government and even the people, as it is basically never reported in the west how his approval went up after escalating against Lebanon, and he generally is pushed to take more severe (and heinous) action by the bulk of the Israeli people. That’s not to say every one of them is a bad person or Bibi is less evil, but every single one who is good is an anti-zionist.
Destroying the state of Israel, contrary to Zionist propaganda, does not mean killing all the Israelis, nor imprisoning them or otherwise punishing them. It means destroying the government apparatus that, from the beginning of its very existence, has been a racial-supremacist settler-colonial entity, and investigating what evidence is turned up in its records and punishing the actual criminals accordingly. Oh, and returning stolen homes where there’s anyone still surviving to reclaim them.
Some articles on Haaretz just sound like Israelis just now beginning to understand the possibility that Palestinians are human beings.

Israelis broke that rapist of prisoners out of jail and paraded him around on TV. They prevented him from facing consequences because they believe Palestinians are that much lesser, that their suffering does not matter, and no too great of crime can be done against them.
When the Zionist forces ramp up violence, Bibi’s ratings increased. When they bombed Lebanon, targeting hospitals, Bibi’s ratings increased. Their marches in the streets are not to end the genocide, they are to demand the full restoration of their status as ethnic supremacists. To return every hostage, even if that means destroying every hosoital, burning refugee camps.
There are Israelis that have compassion and work against apartheid, but they are an extremely small minority. The vast majority of the country are apartheid ethnic supremacist settler colonists and they are just as racist and crybullying as you would expect. This ideology permeates, they are taught it was children and it is reinforced through school, military service, and mass media.
Watch or read Israeli-targeted Israeli media. They do not put in the show they usually do for the world audience. They are just openly racist.
Such a society can only be addressed through disempowerment. When they lose their power, their ability to oppress per their expectations, when people get their homes back, a substantial portion of settlers will leave the country of their own volition, much like the whites of South Africa, while the others seek to retain as much of apartheid as they can and, if justice orevails, will fail to do so while their children receive a proper education in how genocide is, in fact, wrong.

You can hear what Israelis have to say from their own mouths. It’s evil.
