Two Israeli public figures, Dror Eydar and Moshe Feiglin, have called for the complete destruction of Gaza as it continues to be bombarded by Israel, on live television.
Yeah, the misleading headline/tagline are 100% on the site. Heck, the community rules require the title to match the article, so it’s not like you had an option.
Feiglin is a nutjob, but he’s unfortunately a shrewd politician and Israeli politics are currently dominated by finge nutjobs.
In general, calling someone a diplomat implies that they are currently representing the State. While it is an impressive qualification, and Italy is not a minor posting, he would face very real consequences for saying those things if he were currently holding that position.
That ultimately is kind of the point: neither of them will face domestic consequences for this. One has always been at the fringe shouting hateful stuff, and the other works for a right wing newspaper as an opinion writer.
