Ah yes, an Israeli "AI expert" is really a reliable source of information in this conflict.

"Others did bad things in the past, that means we can do it now"
I want to see the Israel apologists come up with an excuse for this. This is fucked up and anyone who thinks there's a legitimate reason for this is a psycho.
He's been doing this on Lemmy since the start of the Israeli attack. Probably some bored kid in his mom's basement thinking it's cool to be radical.
Even if they were CIA-ing, I'm pretty sure they'd be CIA-ing in support of Bibi rather than the other way around. The US seems happy enough to let him carry on genociding, as long as he provides just enough plausible deniability.
Israelis doing whatever they can to make the word "antisemitic" lose all of its value.
"The death of 1 man is a tragedy, the death of a million is a statistic"
Plenty of work for you in The Netherlands... But then again the PVV with Geert Wilders was the biggest in our last elections so it's not exactly progress.
They were keeping Palestinians alive in there, by Israeli standards that is antisemitic already.
Admittedly, Israel's current plan for Gaza after the war is a bit hazy at best (as in, they still don't appear to have one). However, early on, Israel claimed that “We shall demolish it and it will never be built again.” and that they "take no responsibility for life on the Gaza strip after the war" (source: https://www.thenationalnews.com/mena/palestine-israel/2023/10/20/israel-to-take-no-responsibility-for-life-on-gaza-strip-after-war-says-defence-minster/?outputType=amp).
I sure hope they have changed their mind and will have an actual plan to help the Gazan people, but I am nowhere near as optimistic as you. I do not consider Israel an "absolute jewel" with democratic ideals. Israel is just as much a "shithole theocracy" as the countries surrounding it. The difference is that they have the money for an extensive (and I mean extensive) propaganda and lobbying machine. The amount of policies, organisations and projects of Israel to give it a positive name in the Western world is absolutely insane, and the fact that so many exist in the first place tells you enough about the true intentions of the country. A true democracy would not need to control public opinion nearly as much.
There's still a long way from the current 20-something thousand death to 2 million. Literally 100 times as many. That's even ignoring the Palestinians in the West Bank. I sure as hell hope that Israel stops or is stopped long before they get to those numbers. Killing all Palestinians is literal holocaust levels of murder.
If genociding all Palestinians is the only way to "win" for the IDF, then I hope with all my heart that the IDF loses big time, and I sure as hell would assume any normal thinking human being agrees with me, as there is no way you can consider yourself moral person and at the same time be okay with the slaughtering of 2 million people.
