    This is a disingenuous conflation of Israelis as people, individual IDF soldiers as people, and the IDF as an organization. In much the same way that the government of Israel conflates itself with Judaism as a whole.

    You sound plenty smart enough to understand that “Death to the IDF” refers to the IDF as an organization and not it’s conscripts, in the same way that “Death to America” refers to the American government and it’s organizational machinery rather than American people.

    Your virtue signaling does not pass my sniff test.

        Why do I have a feeling that if your argument regarding “Death to the IDF” didn’t pass or fail on your inability to parse my analogy, you’d be feigning no confusion?

        This is intellectual dishonesty. Come on now, you can be better than that.

          I don’t see how getting their large crowd to chant death to America is different from death to the IDF.

          I am just saying that the discrimited against person is not just an anti Palestine activist. I don’t know what you mean.
