Violence always begins in response to impossible expectations and demands.

    You shouldnt hate israeli government, you should hate the israeli state and oppose its existence, you should hate the zionist ideology

          No it doesn’t. But yours dilutes a bit the complicity of most (all, maybe) other states, many of them directly. Without them they couldn’t have done all this shit for these many years. They raised a very problematic pit bull, and when it mauls a bunch of babies the might go ‘oh! No! That’s very bad!’ But tell the parent that the baby scared the dog, and the other parent shouldn’t have approached so fast, while cuddling it. I also get your point, it very well might be that the dog cannot be rehabilitated. But states aren’t really dogs, they’re more like parasites to society. They may seem harmless or benign to a host when the conditions are right, but they can get super nasty in other context. But I agree that we should try to expel the parasite from the host whose life is in most danger first, even if at the cost of putting another parasite in its place. But sooner or later they all can become malign, even this much.
