I absolutely did not mean to legitimize any genuine anti-Semitism. Idk about the source comment but I am arguing quite the opposite. Genocide is always wrong. The Holocaust was an atrocity. Israeli's terrorism in Palestine is an atrocity.

I am objecting to the idea that Israeli aggression can be written off a reaction or response to the Holocaust. Israeli aggression is done because Israel deems it strategic for political reasons; and because IDF soldiers (many of which source from the UK and USA) are eager to enlist for financial and racist reasons.

Getting distracted by the ethical dimensions of histoical blame is really a fucking weird move in a discussion that started with “Hitler was right.”

There's one person in this thread actively advocating for genocide, and it's not either of us.
