Their government is, to a large extent, listening. A lot of the nonsense we've seen this last year was Netanyahu trying to cling to power, but most of it is Israeli popular will. They want the genocide; some of them just don't want to sacrifice the hostages to make it happen.
How do you know? Do you have any data that shows that the majority want the violence?
There.
Relevant:
It's no secret, really.
As of mid sept, polls show 41% of them do. Not a majority but far too much when it's genocide and ethnic cleansing we are talking about.
If 2/5ths of your population want to keep indiscriminately killing innocent men, women and children, it's up to the other 3/5ths to tell them to sit down and teach them why they suck. It's not up to the rest of the world to go "we'll it's not a majority, I guess as long as only 40% of them are drooling at the thought of dead children, a boycott would be unfair."
According to a random poll I just looked up, 29% of Americans "somewhat care" if their politicians support genocide. Maybe we should pressure them to care more and join the 19% that care a lot.
Boycott America until people take it seriously and stop funding them.
Yes
