Did they say “Fuck Israelis”? You have to be either really thin-skinned to take offense to “Fuck insert country here”, or you support the thing that’s being criticized (which in this case is genocide).
Like, I’m Canadian, and when First Nations people say “Fuck Canada” because of the centuries of oppression and genocide they’ve faced, I don’t take personal offense because I do not support the genocide of First Nations people. They’re right, fuck Canada.
Only to people who completely lack reading comprehension skills and/or basic understanding of English. Or trolls who actually support genocide and deliberately misconstrue things so they can argue against a strawman.
Fuck Israel.
Is that directed at the people, the government, or both?

Seems obvious to me they’re referring to the genocidal state of Israel.
When I say “fuck the United States,” I’m not talking about my mom, myself, or even my neighbor’s pet budgie. Duh.
So, the government, then?
I’m not the OP of that comment, but again:
Not sure what was unclear about that. Maybe you need to take it slowly, word by word. Best of luck to you.
Whether “state” includes the people is ambiguous.

I also have a guess about which one you are.
