Is Israel what Nazi Germany would have turned out if every allied power except the Soviet Union and China had sided and backed them instead?
Nazi Germany was always a much more powerful nation, and existed during a time where it was easier for them to gloss over the magnitude of their violence to the foreigners (and there were more foreigners who liked pogroms). Israel is still not on the level of Nazi Germany, not because it's morally superior but because it's just not in a position to feasibly "accomplish" many of the things that the Nazis did and, as deranged as it can be, Israel does still have a mote of self-preservation.
Israel is not capable of accomplishing anything on it's own and it's hasn't. It was always the US. It should really be called the US-Israeli Genocide. And the US is way more powerful than Nazi Germany ever was.
I'm not so sure of that.
Israel is being supplied by the US and gets intelligence and sometimes direct military assistance from the US, but it can't negate being a small country with a small population. It's a limited vessel, one which can be broken much more easily than the US itself can be.
It also knows this and, while it also does lots of reckless things, it still is able to heel at least momentarily now and then when the US actually tells it to. It's not just all gas every second, just most of the time.
The US absolutely can tell it to heel, and the US absolutely won’t tell it to heel.
Samson option is as likely for 2025-26 as anything.
Israel was established by murdering and displacing the people who lived there. Israel has never fought a defensive war.
Could you help me understand what relevance that has to the Nazi Germany comparison?
Have you heard of the phrase Lebensraum?
Obviously, but that doesn't answer my question.
