Occupied Palestine (Quds News Network)- A new poll has revealed alarming support among Israeli Jews for the ethnic cleansing in Gaza. The survey, published Thursday in Haaretz, shows that 82% of Jewish Israelis back the idea of expelling native Palestinians from the strip.

The poll was conducted in March by one of the researchers on behalf of Penn State University. It surveyed 1,005 Jewish respondents across Israel.

Support for forced expulsions has spiked. 82% support expelling all Palestinians from Gaza. Over half—56%—also back expelling Native Palestinians who are citizens of Israel. In 2003, support for these views was lower at 45% and 31%, respectively.

The trend is strongest among younger generations. Among Jewish Israelis under 40, 66% support expelling native Palestinian citizens, and 58% support repeating the Jericho conquest. Only 9% of men under 40—those most likely to serve in the army—rejected all notions of expulsion or genocide.

        I get what you’re trying to say, but this accepts the racists logic and argues that they are merely wrong on the facts. The idea that peoples DNA gives them a right to live in a certain area, or even can be tied to specific locations is racist in nature. There are no “semitic people” in a scientific sense, only in a biblical sense. Classifying modern people as “semitic” is only ever done in order to be anti-semitic.

          The premise of the argument is that the land belongs to the people who have lived there for centuries. Not the people who have spontaneously appeared there without any connection or roots to it.

              You conflate Jews and Zionists and that’s antisemitic. By refering to Zionists as Jews you are doing exactly what the settler colonial entity of Israel wants, a way to legitimize them.

              You can argue all you want about the semantics of who is or isn’t semitic, but that ignores how historically the word antisemitism have been used to talk specifically about hate for Jews.

              Also, accusing someone who is correcting you of being pro genocide is disgusting, no one in this comment chain did this.

                  I already responded to everything in this comment on my previous one, which you ignored just like you ignored everyone correcting you. You’re clearly antisemitic and wants to coat that by talking about the genocide. If you want so bad to act like a fucking nazi and hate the jews the only thing pieces of shit like you deserve is a ban.

              stop believing israel when it says it represents jews. not every jew is a zionist and vice versa. conflating the two is antisemitic

              be angry at zionists thats more than fine, its just. But not at Jews, thats misplaced and racist.

                  lmfao you’re such a pathetic lying racist little piece of shit, what you said was (emphasis mine):

                  This will and have turned millions against Jewish people worldwide… Rightly so!

                  This is not just an observation of fact, there’s a judgement of it and you judge it to be good!

                  nerd “It’s not antisemitic since I’m not being racist to all of the ‘semitic people’ but only some of them” gtfo lol

                  fash-bash

                  That you now try to jimmy your way out of it and twist your own words to mean something else, instead of retracting what you said and owning up to it really betrays your intention.
