>You are a bigot

Not at all.

>A bigot is a person who is obstinately, unreasonably, or unfairly attached to their own beliefs, prejudices, or opinions, particularly regarding race, religion, or politics

It's not in any way unfair to despise people who still support Israel after nearly a century of crimes against humanity.

That'd be a fair criticism if I subscribed to some traditional antisemitic views, but I don't really have any inherent problem with the jewish people. I just want the destruction of the state of Israel and any who would support it, it's purely coincidental that this includes most jewish people.

do you hate Russians? do you hate Syrians/Alawites? Do you hate Turks and Iraqis for what they do to Kurds? Do you hate Japanese for what they did in WWII? Do you hate Americans for Vietnam / Afganistan / Iraq? Do you hate Chinese for Tibet, Xinjiang? Do you hate the British for Bengal Famine? France for Algeria? Pakistan for Bangladesh? Saudis for Yemen? Myanmar for Rohinja? Serbs for Kosovo?

No. You hate on Jews.

All of these conflicts have significantly more deaths than Arab/Israeli conflict. All of them are much more clear cut than Israel that defends itself since 1948 and Jews that defend themselves from hate crimes against civilians since 1920s.

“i just want the destruction of a 9 millon people country (btw including the 2 million arabs? what about druze, samaritans, circasians?)” hate consumes you, you totally are a bigot
Do you think those 2 million arabs would be particularly upset if the Israeli state ceased to exist?

>hate consumes you

I hate a legal structure and it's supporters. Yeah. Aren't I a bad person.

Totally, it’s their home. Israeli Arabs also have way higher standard of life than all of other Arab countries – including LGBT rights, passport strength etc. etc.

Destruction of Israel is not about "legal structure", and btw we’ll prevail and people like you are the reason Israel needs to exist. We saw what happens when jews don’t have a national home.

>Israeli Arabs also have way higher standard of life than all of other Arab countries

That's just a lie. A plenty of Khaleejis live in socialist paradise

Right, including all the women and the LGBT people. Penalties include severe punishments such as the death penalty, floggings, imprisonment, and fines.

Lie is everything you type out.

And Israel keeps millions of Palestinians in large concentration camps.

It's hard to imagine what sort of sick mind would consider the Saudi treatment of minorities to be worse. It's abhorrent, but it doesn't come anywhere close to how Israel treats people.

Besides, the whole concept of "Israeli arabs" is a bit hilarious. How are those different from other Palestinian arabs? Is it just that Israeli state considers them more acceptable than other arabs based on some arbitrary standards not grounded on physical reality?
