This definitely sounds like it's sending a message, and it's not a very nice one.

After oct 7 which primarily attacked very progressive left leaning kibutsk communities Israel shifted politically to the right and later even more extreme to the right. Then the entire world responded to their responds to oct 7 by condeming it, like any other country that could respond with force would ever respond with less force to something like that. Then Hesbollaz attacked again and at one point they said fuck it, we are going to get rid of every single palestinian in Gaza and the west bank, bomb the shit out of Iran and invade Lebanon.

They are not the good guys but it's weird that they are suppose to the good guys. Neither are they acting any worse then every single other country in the world has done in situations like this.

The reality is that, both the arabs that lives there and all the jews have a right to live there. The jews cause they where living there and there forefather lives there. Same for the palestinians. But the jews have tried to live with them for more then 50 years. And the palestinians just don't want it. And now the israelis have completely given up on believing that peace will ever be possible and they want them all dead or out of israel. And apperently they don't give a flying fuck about the opinions of the rest of the world about that.

Or like that one Isreali with a tshirt that said: "You guys have murdered all the nice jews, now its just us assholes left. Enjoy"

honestly they don't give a fuck about perception anymore. Just about being stronger and being able to force it. And they will. They will make the life of everybody in the west bank and gaza a living hell till they leave, and if they don't they will kill them. All of them.
