There's a lot of innocent people in Israel that are fighting against the current regime, just like in your country. Don't damn them just because you're angry.

most Israelis (81%) say the military has a very or somewhat good influence on the way things are going in Israel https://www.pewresearch.org/global/2024/06/20/how-israelis-view-their-government-institutions-and-leaders/

73% of Israeli Jews think that suffering of the Iranian civilian population is not important in Iran War https://en.idi.org.il/articles/59726

Support for Netanyahu's party has gone up since 2023 and support for the opposition has gone down.

There comes a time when you have to admit that the apple is too rotten to be saved. Nothing will change anytime soon; if anything it will only get worse.

Its obviously hyperbole. Completely carpet bombing the population isnt a step I would want to take. But if Israel disappeared overnight, I surely wouldnt miss it.

Also, lets not downplay the killing of thousands and thousands of innocents by Israel.

Killing more innocents doesn't solve the problem, AND is the same as your chief complaint.

Don't do that.

The state, as an American ally, conducting genocide in the region needs to "dissapear." The people, cannot dissapear.

You could carpet bomb the settlements in the west bank for sure though.

israelis are definitely not a people that are going to get better over time. Watch any interview with israelis talking about committing war crimes. They are always smiling. They absolutely love killing, and they dont care at all who it was. The only thing that will work is flattening them. Its their inevitable future and nothing can stop that now.
