This Penn State poll on israeli sentiment was posted to a few subs on reddit, but I haven’t seen it here.

Highlights include:

The survey was conducted by one of the HMs at the request of Penn State University, among 1,005 respondents who constitute a representative sample of the Jewish population in Israel.

To the question “Do you support the claim that the IDF, when conquering an enemy city, should act in a manner similar to the way the Israelites acted when they conquered Jericho under the leadership of Joshua, that is,* kill all its inhabitants*?” 47% of all respondents responded in the affirmative.

…82% of those surveyed expressed support for the forced expulsion of residents of the Gaza Strip, and 56% supported the forced expulsion of Arab citizens of Israel. In the 2003 survey, the positive answers to these questions were “only” 45% and 31%, respectively.

…69% of secularists support the forcible expulsion of Gaza residents, and 31% of them see the extermination of Jericho residents as a precedent that the IDF should adopt.

…66% of those aged 40 and under support the deportation of Arab citizens of Israel, and 58% want to see the IDF do what Joshua did in Jericho.

…It is difficult to find anyone who would refuse clearly illegal orders, such as starving hundreds of thousands, creating extermination zones, or bombing densely populated residential neighborhoods. Only 9% of men under 40, the main group from which regular and reserve servicemen in Gaza come, rejected all the ideas of deportation and extermination that were presented to them.

I wasn’t sure what “Joshua did to Jericho”, and I was unsurprised to find out that the story ends like this: “Following God’s law, the Israelites killed every man and woman, the young and the old, as well as the oxen, sheep, and donkeys. Only Rahab, her parents, brothers and all “those who belonged to her” were spared. They were incorporated into Israel.”

What a repulsive society. Completely irredeemable. A stain on humanity and history.

my heart broke listening to the Palestinian man. All his fear and pain, his desperation to keep his family fed and safe as they’re trapped in the middle of a genocide.

and everything the smug fuck NPR goon was beyond enraging. good fucking riddance.

so this guy was a Christian Zionist working for the apartheid regime on “how to get aid to Palestinians” and he believes there is “enough food in Gaza”

Filth personified.

The pain behind his words is making me feel all kinds of things.

Fanon was right about violence.

helping israelis means them spending less time in their musty fuhrerbunkers when the rocket alarms go off

Rare news these days that makes sense tbh

Yemeni Resistance’s moral resolve when it comes to Palestine is like a top 3 reason for having any hope in the world

It was easy for me to forget how poor Yemen is when Ansar Allah was fearlessly bleeding the US military of billions of USD, holding the Red Sea blockade, and terrorizing the zionist regime directly.

Yemeni Resistance is cool as fuck and absolutely worth celebrating, but the US-israeli bombing campaigns have probably inflicted a much more difficult cost to bear on Yemeni society, which was already in a dire economic state. Yemeni GDP per capita is like $500 USD.

Real “pessimism of the intellect, optimism of the will” hours
