    You don’t think the idea that the Israeli nationalists are Marching around chanting death to an ethnic minority of their Nation is relevant or concerning? That seems extremely important to me. I think it’s extremely important to anyone who studied the rise of fascism in multiple democracies throughout the world.

      Something being important, and something being relevant to the point being discussed can be different.

        The point being discussed is that they are Marching around shouting death to this ethnic minority. That’s the topic we’re talking about. So yeah the thing that’s happening that this article is reporting on is relevant to the discussion on the article. That’s how this whole thing works.

        Why are you so surprised if someone chanted that in response to these chants? People will obviously blame the oppressor in this situation. What’s so confusing?

          That is extremely disingenuous, there is no “response” both sides have been chanting for each other’s death for fifty years plus.
