In an episode of Two Nice Jewish Boys, which aired three weeks ago, host Weinstein said: “If you gave me a button to just erase Gaza, every single living being in Gaza would no longer be living tomorrow. I would press it in a second.”

He claimed that “most Israelis” would do the same.

Meningher added that they would also want to wipe out Palestinians in “the territories”.

The clip of Weinstein and Meningher lauding the idea of all five million Palestinians in the Gaza Strip and West Bank being wiped out has drawn fierce criticism online.

“Radio Rwanda in full effect here. This is deeply disturbing,” journalist Samira Mohyedeen wrote on X, referring to the broadcasts that incited genocide against the Tutsis during the 1994 Rwandan genocide.

Maybe all Israelis need to visit Dachau or Auschwitz to remember how being actively erased isn’t a good thing. How quickly it’s forgotten.

[–] AtHeartEngineer@lemmy.world 70 points 1 month ago

Ya this was my exact thought, this is Nazism, pretty much the definition of it.

[–] Akasazh@feddit.nl 14 points 1 month ago

Or the Warsaw ghetto... you know... a segregated part of a country bring reduced to ruin with technological superior weaponry, due to a people resisting the oppressive regime of a racist state.

[–] RockyC@lemm.ee 111 points 1 month ago (2 children)

Israel can fuck right off. Clearly, “never again” doesn’t mean fuck all to the Israeli government who are doing the same shit the Nazis did, only with bombs instead of gas chambers.

Fuck Israel. The US should have stopped giving them money decades ago.

A few months ago I started using Google Translate to read what Israelis are saying amongst each other in their mainstream publications and forums.

My. God. Levels of entitlement and racism that would make a Klansman blush.

Sure, a lot of them want a cease-fire to get the hostages back ... and most don't like Netanyahu ... but the average Israeli Zionist is a racist monster.

[–] Daxtron2@startrek.website 41 points 1 month ago (3 children)

You have to remember that the people who post comments on news articles are not average. Look at any English news site article and its full of the most bottom of the barrel idiots. The majority of people don't comment on things like this.

[–] Mammal@lemmy.world 46 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago) (6 children)

I'm not referring to powerless, mouth-breathing, NEETs who normally lurk forums.

But I'm referring to comments from actual members of the Israeli Knesset, public statements from people like the OP, printed editorials in mainstream publications, and modern Israeli celebrities.

When you read through the translations not meant for western audiences - the racism pops out disturbingly. It's such a part of their culture that they don't even notice it as such. Zionists really don't view people in the West Bank or Gaza as humans.

You have to remember that their religion teaches them that non-jewish humans are, well, 'not that important'

To put it mildly

[–] yeahiknow3@lemmy.dbzer0.com 28 points 1 month ago

Religion is a monstrous evil.

Don’t forget a good chunk of those Israelis are also American.

We’re not sending our best.

[–] Mammal@lemmy.world 15 points 1 month ago

As best I can tell, the most racist zionists are usually American-born Israelis.

[–] DarkSpectrum@lemmy.world 10 points 1 month ago

This is quite disturbing, thank you for sharing. I forget that the localised cultural medias on both sides is likely the greater measure of reality but not within most people's awareness.

They don't actually seem that nice to me

[–] PolydoreSmith@lemmy.world 46 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Nor are they “boys”. They’re like mid-late thirties men.

[–] Kalysta@lemm.ee 21 points 1 month ago (1 children)

With opinions like this i promise you they are children.

[–] beefbot@lemmy.blahaj.zone 11 points 1 month ago

As long as they’re tried as adults

If a Palestinian said that, they will be immediately branded a terrorist AND get called an Antisemite™ and zionist then walk the street crying about how tough their life are and they just wanna exists.

[–] NatakuNox@lemmy.world 52 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago) (1 children)

And in all honesty Palestinian people actually have a reason to hate Israel/Zionest. I'm not excusing any violence by anyone, but for example if you asked a Jewish Polish person during the holocaust if they hated Germany/Nazies, no one wouldn take their response as a reason to continue the holocaust. Ask any person who's demographic is being ethnicly cleansed what they think about their oppressors, and you'll always get the same response.

We know how this ends when the world (mainly the USA) turns a blind eye. Time after time, the world has shown to be deeply blind to genicide against brown people. If the roles were reversed we would have stopped the killing/war already.

Edit: Grammar

[–] superkret@feddit.org 27 points 1 month ago (1 children)

The US isn't turning a blind eye to the genocide this time.
They're actively involved.

They also said (different episode I think) that while they're enjoying their lives (e.g. at a concert), knowing that Palestinians are suffering makes it better. Can you imagine being that much of an evil cunt?

Clip is in this video: https://youtu.be/j_uOJAKbGpg?si=ojFCDchAJw_B7Anb

Lifelong indoctrination with minimal critical education or dissenting ideals can be a hell of a drug.

[–] Kalysta@lemm.ee 13 points 1 month ago

Yeah these guys are not going to heaven.

[–] eran_morad@lemmy.world 43 points 1 month ago

Well that’s fucked.

Two Nice Jewish Boys

Very nice people. They should be proud.

[–] CosmicTurtle0@lemmy.dbzer0.com 27 points 1 month ago

They are some proud boys.

[–] NatakuNox@lemmy.world 35 points 1 month ago (2 children)

They are just saying the quiet part out loud. This is what zionest and the Christian right want. But there is no magical button to make 5 million people go away. So it's bombs and starvation as their buttons to push. How many times do they have to tell us why they are doing obviously genicidal acts before we do something?

Yikes. Incredibly disgusting.

[–] iAvicenna@lemmy.world 16 points 1 month ago

wow, would you be ok to boil them and make soap as well? or make random medical experiments on them maybe?

[–] doubletwist@lemmy.world 16 points 1 month ago (2 children)

At this point I vote we forcibly remove EVERYBODY from the entirety of Israel and Palestine. If they can't share it nicely, nobody should get to have it.

There is only one button Israel is pressing

[–] jaggedrobotpubes@lemmy.world 13 points 1 month ago (3 children)

I guess getting genocided makes it more likely to commit one yourself.

Maybe Palestinians will be the genocidal cunts in the year 2104 if this pattern holds. Weird to think about.

He claimed that “most Israelis” would do the same.

Completely believable
