Norman Finkelstein nails it!

Oh no, that's wrong propaganda. Netanyahu is an asshole, that's for sure, but Israeli people hate him, they know exactly who he is. Efact is in Israel there are more protests against him than America ever had against Trump and his white supremacist (accounting population size)

Do you mind sharing articles or information about the disdain Israelis have for Netanyahu?

If not, all is well. Peace!

For example: https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2024/feb/25/israelis-take-no-heed-of-global-anger-but-contempt-for-benjamin-netanyahu-growing

It's not even telling the whole story. The demostrations started long before the war, but Oct 7th caused so much trauma that they stopped for too long, by this time Netanyahu and the fascists gather enough power but the demonstrations continue now.

Netanyahu has almost complete control on the media ( thanks to American, British and Russian billionaires) so most of the Israelis are uninformed.

Thanks for sharing!

I don't really see any owner-class media share the protests against Netanyahu in Israel.

I did see the riot videos, due to IDF soliders being questioned for the raping of detainees.

In this particular case, there were huge demonstrations against the rape, but mostly against the corruption of values within the army, and against the fascist politicians who joined and enticed a mob against the army persecuters.

Thanks for sharing that insighful information!

I saw many posts saying the riots were to support the rape of non-Jewish people.

I know. This is mostly what is shown. Some because the sensation some because propaganda. But they represent a tiny fraction of the Israelis.

I came across this article the other day. I don’t know how to validate it as I can’t read the source material. Can you shine a light on the discrepancy between what you’re saying and what the article says?
