Unfortunately, the polls in Israel aren’t nearly as generous. If you think the US is drowning in fascist, the Israeli press is a tidal wave of unchecked genocidal vulgarity. People straight up calling for the total extermination of Arab peoples on air and being greeted with applause.

There’s been anti-war protests in Tel Aviv every weekend for over a year. You’re not going to hear about that on your alternative media that’s working to dehumanize Israelis.

The protests are for the release of hostages, and explicitly not to end the wars, the people actually trying to stop the war are a tiny minority that was active in giving aid to gaza, and are portrayed by most of the population as terror sympathizers.

Protests for hostage release, not to stop the war crimes.

How many of those protests are about Palestinians?
The vast majority of them, and the largest of them, are about saving the “hostages” and opposing Netanyahu.
One of the largest protests so far: thejc.com/…/israelis-protest-gaza-war-netanyahu-w…
Not a single mention of Palestinians.

Those protests are not about Palestine. It’s insane what’s going on over there…

Sure. And you had people handcuffing themselves to the White House fence protesting the US invasion of Afghanistan as far out as 2012. But these have been a tiny, vocal minority. They’re in no way representative of the public (much less the Israeli media or their corrupt plutocracy).

To be fair, our media here in the States is insanely horrible.
I cannot fathom why so many Israelis are acting so evil. I actually don’t know a single Jewish person here that supports the genocide. Those I do now are actually amazingly upset about it.
