It honestly felt like Bartov’s pointing out the very serious historical and material myopia that exists within Israel proper, outside of very specific and rare circles, that’s developed to such a severe degree that when blowback against the actions of their fascist state occured a la O7 that it completely disorientated them and shattered their fictional worldview.
Like it’s quite possible we’re able to get a glimpse into history of what was happening in fascist Germany with how inundated with propaganda their people were with observing the continued unraveling we’ve been given a glimpse into with the contemporary events occuring.
