You can think of Netanyahu what you want but to compare him to a man who was responsible for the industrial murder and genocide of over 6 million Jews is just incredibly poor taste because as horrific as the situation for the Palestinian civilians might be - saying things like this is just straight up downplaying what happened during the Holocaust.

So they couldn't show solidarity with 1.2k innocent people being brutally slaughtered, raped, tortured and kidnapped - before Israel's current campaign in Gaza even began out of fear of a backlash? Shouldn't we be questioning the people who have an issue with showing solidarity with the victims because they can't differentiate between the Israeli government and innocent Israeli civilians?

Just copying my comment from the other thread, if you've ever flown to Israel, this wouldn't be a surprise to you.

The majority of flights to Israel will have some of their agents/ their police doing extra screening before boarding, asking questions about who packed your luggage, where it's been, whether you've received any gifts from anyone - those sorts of things, it's basically like a TSA screening. They've done this during more peaceful times so to see this continue now is hardly a surprise.
