Israeli society is not alright. «Once reports began to emerge of civilian casualties — especially from the girls’ elementary school in Minab, where some 150 children were killed in an apparent Israeli airstrike — the supposed concern for the Iranian people revealed itself to be paper-thin. Shocked, I shared the videos from the school on my Facebook page. I confess I did not expect the torrent of hatred that followed. I already know that, aside from a very narrow fringe, one cannot expect empathetic reactions to the mass killing of Palestinians; that the overwhelming majority of the Jewish public in Israel not only does not mourn but openly rejoices at every Palestinian death, under any circumstances. But I did not imagine that similar bloodlust would accompany the bombing to death of little girls in school uniforms, particularly after so many Israelis rushed to declare that it wasn’t the Iranian people who are our enemy, but the regime. Within five hours, my post had accumulated hundreds of hateful comments, and [a] larger portion rejoiced at the fate of the murdered girls. “Too bad they don’t close schools on Shabbat!” someone wrote, adding five laughing emojis to underline his delight. “Excellent, excellent, excellent, joyful and heartwarming. May there be many more cases like this, and soon among the leftists,” wrote another. » https://www.972mag.com/2026-israel-iran-war/
