What a silly thing to say. Here are a few examples of actual genocidal language:
Galit Distel Atbaryan (Likud MK, former Public Diplomacy Minister): Called for “erasing all of Gaza from the face of the Earth” and described the enclave as needing to be “wiped out”.
Amit Halevi (Likud MK): Stated that the goal of the war is that there is “no more Muslim land in the land of Israel” and suggested leaving Gaza as a “monument, like Sodom”.
Nissim Vaturi (Deputy Speaker of the Knesset, Likud): Stated in February 2025 that “all adults in Gaza should be killed” and that “the children and women need to be separated and the adults in Gaza eliminated”.
Boaz Bismuth (Likud MK): Invoked the biblical reference to “erase the memory of Amalek,” a phrase frequently interpreted as a call for the total destruction of an enemy, similar to references made by Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.
Ariel Kallner (Likud MK): Urged a “Nakba that will overshadow the Nakba of '48,” referencing the 1948 forced displacement of Palestinians.
Tally Gotliv (Likud MK): Demanded “crushing and flattening Gaza without mercy”. Hnoch Milwidsky (Likud MK): In a 2026 report, was cited as having stated during a debate that “it is legitimate” for soldiers to rape Palestinians.
