I just did. No question a number of these comments are completely inexcusable.

2 points:

1. A number of them, especially by more moderate voices, were made in the immediate days after Oct 7 when there was a tremendous amount of anger as a reaction to what happened.

2. The above comment and others like this were made by the extreme of the extreme right in Israel. I don't think that even Ben Gvir would utter such a thing.

Nobody with decision making powers is making any attempt to exterminate a people.
