We need to differentiate between Israel as an administrative-state/ country, and the literal Israeli people as individuals.
And "wipe them off the face of the earth" sounds like you're talking about the latter.
If you are, please take that rhetoric elsewhere.
No colonial state has a right to exist, but there is a difference between calling for de-col and calling for 'wiping [people] off the face of the earth'.
Wow I went bit over the top didn't I. I shouldn't have said we need to wipe the whole state off the face of the earth. Just the bloodthirsty ones.
I'm not sure Israeli people are to blame, but the government certainly is. And it seems there is no way to get better people into office there.
