That’s the point of ‘The Banality of Evil’ and the Milgram experiments.
There is nothing special or different about the Israelis, or for that matter the Nazis. They were normal people.
The only silver lining about the Milgram experiments is that they showed that if people were aware that the default nature of human beings was to follow orders, no matter how horrible, they would be inoculated, somewhat, to following those orders.
Please note, Israel is committing an unjustified horrible fucking genocide. None of this is an excuse for that. But you better recognize that there isn’t too much that differentiates you from those snipers, because if you don’t recognize that then you could be one of them in the future.
