Israeli citizens require a lot of deprogramming, and they are mostly saveable.
However, the bad news is that it may not be possible to do that without invading the country, since a majority of them are too far gone to accept deprogramming without serious coercion.
I look at the example of deprogramming efforts in West Germany after WW2. Denazifying efforts did exist there, despite modern western communist revisionism (not all wrong, btw, but not all correct either, check ALL sources my ML and tankie friends). It was quite difficult in many cases; even though a majority of the German population was just relieved that the war was over, they would have kept resisting if their country had survived. And there was a sizeable minority that only stopped being Nazis openly to avoid persecution.
Edit: and to be clear, I share your view that writing victims of propaganda off as enemies not deserving of leniency is monstrous. It is akin to what the fascists do. We must recognise the humanity in our enemies, while accepting that sometimes it is still necessary to kill them.
We must only kill the poor bastards if it is necessary to stop them murdering others, not just because they are “monsters” and it feels good.
This page casts a limited light on what we were discussing, but gives you an idea on how many Israelis don’t believe the govt is going far enough when fighting its enemies.
As you can see, it is about the current war with Lebanon, but I have seen many stories that cite similar results about Gaza or the West Bank. A few minutes on Google will confirm that.
Searching “I went to Israel” didn’t have it in the top 25 results, can’t imagine why since the goal is to make us see all Israelis as the problem apparently.
Is your claim that this video is a completely inaccurate hit piece then?
Did you really just fucking ask if my existing comment was a response to some random ass YouTube video that hasn’t been brought up or linked yet?
How could it possibly be?

If that was true, that the majority need deprogramming…
Why does Bibi keep cancelling elections due to his faction not standing a chance of winning again?
Like, you do realize the reason he keeps starting wars is that this is his ex use to stay in power because his citizens don’t want him in power?
Some do, some do in every country
But the majority don’t want this path, youre operating under Bibi’s propaganda that he has total support.
You are discounting the idea that a lot of voters think Bibi is not killing enough.
By “a lot”…
Do you mean “not enough to win an election since 2021?”
Quite possible. It’s double figures at least, according to polls.
You think 10% is a majority?
What polls?
It feels like you’re just saying whatever you want with no regard to reality…
If you don’t want to look them up, that doesn’t mean they don’t exist. However, since I don’t want to be some sort of asshole here, asserting things without evidence: https://www.chathamhouse.org/2026/04/israels-perpetual-mobilization-limits-netanyahus-super-sparta-model

Like…
What are you even fucking talking about?
Seems like your claim is that Israelis overwhelmingly don’t support the regime, that video is a series of man on the street interviews.
Sorry to inconvenience you so terribly, but most Israelis seem to be intensely racist toward arabs and in favor of the greater Israel project.
