This seems like the most basic, yet most important thing, but it gets lost, and the media won't say it. It's kind of like "support the troops" all over again.

I would like an acknowledgement of why they they are protesting and what they want afterwards before I start agreeing with you. There are Israelis out there who oppose the murder of children on principle, but that isn't the cause these protests are about. if anything it would clear a road for worse

Tens of thousands of Israelis, weekly, daily, taking to the streets to protest Netanyahu and end his corruption and invasion to protect it.
Somehow none of our AIPAC funded politicians can see it.

I have old college “friends” who say anyone who criticizes the Israeli military or government supports terrorism and are antisemites. Wonder how this news greets them.

What percentage of them would support the complete extermination of all Palestinians, just AFTER the hostages are recovered? There is actually data on this. It doesn’t look good.

Of course. Just as when the U.S. government commits genocide, stages coups, invades and occupies other countries, wages economic terrorism…none of that is “all Americans”. And just as in the United States, Israelis resisting the actions of their government are often punished for it.

Also "the actions of the israeli gov" is distinct from "jews" in general. Conflating Netanyahu and "all jews" is just throwing jews under the bus. One day it will become impossible to ignore the extent of the current genocide and all jews will be unjustly held responsible.

This is a related peril to equating any criticism of that government with antisemitism, but the people who need to learn this lesson are entirely immune to it. FWIW I try to refer to the belligerents as "Likud" to distinguish their actions from the broader polity.

My college boyfriend worked in a psych lab with a doctoral student from Tel Aviv. He told me that she, along with the rest of her family, were Marxists, and very pro-Palestinian. That was VERY different than what I had been told of Israelis growing up!

Sadly however, polling shows 2/3s of Israelis oppose humanitarian aid to Gaza.

It's really nice to see that side getting seen by the media. They really made it feel like pro-ceasefire Israelis were an extreme minority.
