    Due to the vague nature of it I’m forced to interpret this comment as a potential defence of isreal, in which case:

    Netanyahu doesn’t speak for the jews, Netanyahu should be flogged.

      Netanyahu is a democratically elected representative, elected multiple times, who is doing exactly what he always advertised.

      Netanyahu therefore does stand for the collective will of Israel.

        Over 75% of Jews in Israel want him to step down now.

        His recent actions therefore do not stand for the collective will of Israel even if he himself claims otherwise.

          You vote people in for terms. And Netanyahu has done nothing all his voters didn’t already know he would probably do, what he promised to do, what he is doing is why he was voted in. Regret does not excuse Israel for gleefully electing the fascist multiple times.

          And a lot of them are just probably disappointed about the protracted war instead of the swift genocide of infidels they hoped for.

          They want him to be doing what he is doing, just not in the exact way he is doing it. The collective will of Israell is still settling Palestine through force and support of genocidal actions to accomplish that.

      Many people don’t realize what you just posted, which unfortunately creates a lot of hate and friction.
