It's literally antisemitism. Imagine if Hezbollah claimed that Israel was hoarding gold under its hospitals and used this as justification for bombing them.
Israel is the greatest exporter of antisemitism on the planet, beginning with their foundational myth of conflating Judaism with ethnic supremaciat settler Colonial apartheid. Can't think of anything more antisemitic than, "to be Jewish is to steal land and oppress everyone that gets in their way".
Hoarded wealth is a valid military target.
Lying that the enemy is a greedy monster that hoards gold under hospitals to use the patients as human shields is fucking racist.
IDF should go hunt down billionaires, then. Do something useful for once.
Well yes that was the joke but I don't think anyone got it

Haha, sorry to hear that, nowadays it’s hard to make jokes like that because there are so many wilfully ignorant right-wing extremists who unironically would think it’s cool and good to bomb a hospital full of patients if Hezbollah had hidden a nice bakery in the basement.
