And 82% want Gaza emptied, according to Israeli newspaper poll. Israel’s genocidal intent isn’t only in its government

A new poll by a US university, published in Israeli newspaper Haaretz, has (again) exposed the prevalence of racist murderousness in the public psyche of the colony.
The poll, by Penn State University, has been quoted as saying that ‘half’ of Israelis want the Palestinians in Gaza exterminated, but in fact the figure is considerably higher. 47% of respondents answered directly to a poll question that yes, they believe the Israeli army ‘should’ kill all the inhabitants of any city they conquer. But almost two thirds (65%) said they believe there is a ‘current incarnation of Amalek’ – the regime’s description of the Palestinians as a biblical nation the bible says the historical Hebrews were ordered to completely wipe out – and of those, 93% said the ‘mitzvah’ (command) to wipe them out still applies, meaning that more than 60% agree with the wholesale slaughter of Palestinians, at least in Gaza.
The poll also indicates that 82 percent of Israelis support the forced expulsion of Palestinians from the Gaza Strip – an aim the Israeli government now openly states has been its intention all along. Other polls have shown that three quarters of Israelis either agree with Israel’s genocide in Gaza or think its military should go even further.
This murderous attitude among the public is not merely theoretical or considered shameful, or even controversial. While there is a growing ‘refuser’ movement among Israeli youth, even many young people freely admit that Israel ‘needs’ to kill even Palestinian babies and children, as this ITV News clip shows:
Israeli propaganda portrays Palestinians as trained from childhood to want to ‘kill Jews’, a claim that is absent any contemporary evidence. In contrast, evidence abounds of Israeli children being taught to want the death of all Palestinians or even all Arabs, while Israeli TV only recently published a video of children singing about exterminating the people of Gaza:
Nor is this only a recent phenomenon, as this 1993 clip, among many others, shows:
The Jesuits say that if they can train a child for the first seven years of its life, what they are taught will stick for life. The new poll results suggest the same often, but not always, applies to the racist and genocidal teaching forced on children in Israel.

How is this factually different to the nazis in WWII?
it is not other than in a different language. horrifying to see children brainwashed.
It seems to me that since the violent establishment of Israel in 1948 it has been the norm to demonise Palestinians to Israeli children from a very early age, and the government and much of the media inculcate the population with atrocity propaganda no doubt in the first place, and then becomes entrenched in society as such. I mean is there another country on the planet where young kids have learnt and sing such songs?! It’s totally sick and twisted and deranged and demented.
Anyway, I don’t know if anyone posted a link to this in a recent thread (I don’t recall seeing it), but it’s essential viewing (and you begin to understand more and more why the octupus was associated with Jews – ie because they really DO appear to have their tentacles in everything):

Also came across the following on DDNs website from last month when I went on there to make a donation, and like the LowKey vid is essential viewing. It’s entitled ‘Israel Is Doing WHAT To Children’ on their website, and on youtube it’s entitled ‘The Video Netanyahu Doesn’t Want You To See’, and has had 743k views:

That was very interesting. Especially the links between Israel-supporting “charities” and senior members of the Labour Party. Explains everything.
Apologies (for yet another post), but…
I was in a charity shop about three/four weeks ago paying for something at the counter when I just happened to notice a hardback copy of a book by Michael Mansfield on the book shelves close by entitled Memoirs Of A Radical Lawyer and, of course had to buy it. I started reading it about ten days ago now and just got to page 143, where it says the following:
In 2003 in Gaza, James Miller, a cameraman who was making a film about Palestinian children, was shot. In the same year, less than a mile away, Tom Hurndall, a twenty-two-year-old journalist who rushed in to rescue a group of small children being fired at by Israeli soldiers, was shot in the head.
I don’t recall having heard about these two guys before, but there have of course been others in the past, activists, who have been killed in Gaza (and the West Bank), and then there were the nine people on the flotilla who were murdered by Israeli forces. And in the process of doing a search re Tom and James, I came across some articles about Shireen and, as such, realised that it was three years ago this month that she was executed by the IDF.
PS Have the IDF named the six Hamas operatives yet they alledged were among the paramedics and first responders they killed two months ago? An IDF spokesman told a group of reporters seven weeks ago now that “they will be named later”, but we’ve heard nothing. I wonder what possible reason there could be for not just naming them straight off, let alone delaying doing so for weeks and months. And, more-than-likely, for ever!
2003? Was that before October 7th 2023? I only ask, because it seems EVERYTHING about the genocide was caused by October 7th ……
My grandfather in law died as a muslim in dachau concentration camp. We have all heard this rhetoric before. Its the actual nazis. What most don’t understand is we live in the zionist occupied united kingdom. They literally control our government. It will be you next. Even the labour party has been stolen by a nazi enoch powell wannabe. Be afraid for your children’s future.
What a fucked up world we inhabit
Had I been the interviewer I would’ve asked that harridan if itself is living proof of what happens when the offspring aren’t destroyed.
It’s being reported (on the BBC News channel, at least), that nine children of a doctor in Gaza were killed yesterday in a strike, out of ten…
I just did a search re >doctor nine children killed< and Sky News have covered it as well, and The Independent (and Haaretz and the Jerusalem Post and the Times of Israel and Yahoo News), and THEY were on just the first page of results, so it's probably been covered by most of the MSM, and perhaps all of the MSM.
The following is from the Yahoo News article:
The bodies of 79 people killed by Israeli strikes have been taken to hospitals in the past 24 hours, Gaza ‘s health ministry said on Saturday, a toll that does not include hospitals in the battered north which it said were now inaccessible.
The dead over the past day in Israel’s renewed military offensive included nine of one doctor’s 10 children, horrified colleagues and the health ministry said.
Alaa Najjar, a paediatrician at Nasser Hospital, was on duty at the time and ran home to find her family’s house on fire, Ahmad al-Farra, head of the hospital’s paediatric department, told The Associated Press.
Ms Najjar’s husband was severely wounded and their only surviving child, an 11-year-old boy, was in a critical condition after Friday’s strike in the southern city of Khan Younis, Mr Farra said.
https://uk.news.yahoo.com/nine-doctor-10-children-killed-152614196.html
It's just atrocity after atrocity after atrocity.
PS I wonder if the IDF will be carrying out another one of their alledged investigations!
This Haaretz article (which they obviously decided not to put behind a their paywall) contains a few more details (and slightly differs in one respect to the Yahoo News article, as you will see, not that it makes the slightest bit of difference):
Nine Siblings Under 12 Killed in Israeli Strike on Their Home in Gaza, Medical Sources Say
They were the children of two doctors who work at Nasser Hospital in Khan Yunis. One son survived, but was critically wounded. Witnesses said the children’s mother collapsed upon seeing their bodies brought into the hospital where she works
An Israeli air strike on Gaza hit the home of a doctor and killed nine of her 10 children on Friday, according to the hospital where she works in the city of Khan Yunis, according to a BBC report.
The children were the sons and daughters of Hamdi and Alaa al-Najjar, both doctors working at Nasser Hospital. Colleagues of the couple told multiple media outlets that the family had no ties to Hamas.
According to reports by the BBC and Sky News Arabia, Hamdi had just returned from driving his wife to work at the hospital when the strike hit their home. He was critically wounded, as was their 11-year-old son Adam – the couple’s only surviving child.
Civil defense teams said the strike completely destroyed the house and sparked an intense fire. The Civil Defence organization in Gaza published video footage showing the charred bodies being recovered from the rubble. Witnesses said the children’s mother collapsed upon seeing their remains brought into the hospital where she works…
And at the end of the article it says the following:
The Hamas-run Gaza Health Ministry announced Thursday morning that 16,506 Palestinian children have been killed since the war began on October 7, 2023, including 916 infants under the age of one.
According to the data, 4,365 of the children killed were between the ages of one and five, and 6,101 were between six and 12. The remaining victims were between 13 and 17 years old. The ministry also released a list of the names of all the children who were killed.
https://www.haaretz.com/israel-news/2025-05-24/ty-article/nine-siblings-under-12-killed-in-israeli-strike-on-their-home-in-gaza-medical-sources-say/00000197-02ae-d211-a5df-1eefa15c0000
In this particular case it obviously WAS a precision strike, as the Israeli airforce maintains all their air-strikes are, even with the tens of thousands of 2,000lb bombs the US has provided to them, with a kill zone of 300m from the impact site.
It’s time (do you remember the call from June-July 2024?) that Starmer’s “feet would be held to the fire.” If he can’t call out (properly, not mealy-mouthed platitudes) and TAKE ACTION on atrocities by Israel, that his actions in aiding ethnic cleansing and war crimes were investigated in depth.
The arrogance of the Lumpen dehumanised Zionists with the complicity of the Barbarian West.
The 1917 Balfour Declaration by the White UK elite Govt (top down from thousands of miles away & without consulting the indigenous Palestinians) said a home in Palestine forJewish people but NOT a state or country which the Zionists at the time had been calling for.
So the Occupation Force that calls itself Israel is illegal.
And other European countries at the time supported it because they were anti-Semitic and wanted rid of their Jews.
The only Jewish member of the then Tory Cabinet opposed it because he knew they would use it to get rid of their Jews (see Bernard Regan, The Balfour Declaration).
They should have stayed and fought alongside the rest of the w class for equality & socialism.
Interestingly in the World Zionist Conference around 1907 the territoriaists wanted a home in Africa (Kenya) but lost the vote otherwise we would have now been chanting Free Free Kenya!
Wang Xiaoming in the latest New Left Review is brilliant, he quotes a great Chinese writer Lu Xun who though what he was saying was referring to Chinese people applies to all populations “They should never become beast like patriots.”
One multi-ethnic Democratic state of Palestine from the rivers to the sea (Said, Olymar) and “Palestinians need a new grassroots approach.” (Olymar).
Solidarity.
“The arrogance of the Lumpen dehumanised Zionists with the complicity of the Barbarian West.”
Encapsulated in these extracts from a debate involving Douglas Murray and Mehdi Hassan which took place in Canada in which the proposition being debated was something along the lines that anti-Zionism is anti-Semitism:
Here is a different perspective from the norm.

Rabbi Feldman of Neturei Karta speaks to TRT World about why true Jewish faith rejects the Israeli state—and why he stands in solidarity with the Palestinian people.
Yeah TWO Things SteveH:
1) Rabbi F on your utube is a Hassidic jew – they are anti Zionist for religious and political reasons. They were the Jews who defended Jeremy Bernard Corbyn against the Zionists accusations of antisemitism.
2) TRT is the Turkish state broadcasting channel. Watch any of their programmes on the vile youtube site and you will quickly realise how far the once-respected BBC has fallen and how disgusting and obvious its bias is.
