The worldview of these people is so incompatible with enlightenment it is absurd how they seem to magnetize the progressive parts of society. Every time you expect Palestinian leadership to show merit they say these things...

I wish we would confront leftist politicians with these statements. I want to hear them justify why Jewish people need to tolerate these people.

And why should the Palestinians tolerate Israel, given the vocal comments made by their statesmen and women?

The hypocrisy is astounding.

Edit: So, no one is going to offer a cogent reason why the Palestinians should tolerate genocidal rhetoric from Israeli politicians? Tickle me surprised.

Israel is a pluralistic democracy. Politicians can say all kinds of wild awful crap, they’re not dictators where what they say is what happens. Palestine on the other hand is ruled with an iron fist and you won’t find a single reasonable political leader. Every single one has been spouting genocidal rhetoric about Jews going back nearly a century and every chance they’ve got they’ve made good on their words. They’re a brutal fascistic Islamist authoritarian terror regime

Omg, someone said something mean about the Palestinians who took part in a massacre and want to kill jews! Go apply your white guilt somewhere else. Israelis aren't white and Palestinians aren't POC. They're both a blend of both. Politicians say dumb things. You know that. Why should Isreal have to put up with genocidal rhetoric from a terrorist group who has massacred them and hasn't stopped since Isreal was created? You won't respond. Color me surprised.

Of course the minority of Israeli politicians (btw a parliamentary system allows for the election of some who do NOT represent mainstream views) shouldn't be saying those things.

But how does that justify the Palestinian desire to wipe out all Jews? The massacre of innocent civilians by which Hamas started the current war?
