Israeli warmongering is unrelated to the Holocaust. Zionism is a whole separate ideology; and neither justifies the other.

The mentality of genocide warranting genocide is exactly what the Nazis used to psuedo-justify their bigotry (against those they scapegoated for sabotaging them in WWI). That same mentality is used now to psuedo-justify Zionism because of the Holocaust. Zionists are like Nazis; but Zionists do not vindicate Nazis.

I doubt Hitler had any problems with Zionism if it meant Jews leaving Germany.

Have I stumbled into an actual anti-semitic shithole here, the kind the ADL is always crying wolf about?

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.
