that story was quoted repeatedly to justify this genocide. They keep talking about Amalek. that’s a genocidal dogwhistle… not really a dogwhistle, more like a fog horn
WTH? WTF is wrong with people? I was a kid when I read that and it already freaked me out with my limited comprehension and exposure of world history. How can anyone read that and think “well done, let’s do it again?”

It’s common in authoritarian states for that level of evil to be normalized. But “Death to everyone in an authoritarian state!” is nationalist-campist tripe all the same - or else treating politics with the same mindset as a religious fanatic.

but no one is advocating for the genocide of Israelis. were just complaining how monstrous they are.
