    I would imagine there’s a correlation between those who are protesting and those who didn’t vote for Netanyahu. But regardless, people can change their minds.

      or you could just be under the age of 10 and be bombed in Gaza for a bite you were not even alive to take part in.

      One side gets collectively punished. the other side wrings theirs hands together.

        I don’t know what you’re getting at here. You could post this exact comment literally anywhere and it would be equally congruous. You could respond to someone’s cooking advice with this. How is it relevant to what I said?

          whether people voted for something or not does.not matter if there is collective punishment happening. One side is being collectively punished for being Hammas. the other side refuse to condemn the genocide they are perpetrating. They have the exact government they wanted.

                They’re calling for removal of the leader of the genocide, while condemning his actions. That’s how change is made.

                  I don’t hear anything specific about the genocide. let’s face it,.most of the country is more than happy to collectively punish and genocide the people of Gaza.

                  Maybe you can show me a large scale Israeli protest against the genocide

                    I protested Bush/Cheney’s war in Iraq and Afghanistan in 2003. We didn’t explicitly mention genocide, although that’s not far from what was happening. Does that not count, by your specific qualifications, as doing the right thing? C’mon man. Get over yourself.
