Now we're advocating ethnic cleansing of Zionist Jews from New York City?

By definition if you are a Zionist Jew you would not be living in New York or anywhere outside of Israel, if you had the means to do so which nearly all Jews do given the support from the Israeli government, they will even pay for your flight.

A definition of "zionist" that excludes Chuck Schumer is a bit odd.

Can you link a commonly accepted definition - encyclopedia, dictionary, what have you - saying that it requires immediate migration?

> Can you explain to me how that’s fascism? "We have lots of babies so it can't be fascism" is a really out-there argument I'm having trouble following. It's like posting "Turtle is purple ice cream 203-B"; I don't follow.

> you live in a society which is non-viable

I'm not certain "start a war with half the region that gets the other friendlier half of the region's entire economic engine blown up by Iran" counts as viable in the long run.

“Social conditioning” does not strictly determine the birth rate of developed nations. For that you must look at economic policy making it financially untenable to build a family. What you conveniently ignore here is Israel’s own economic policy of subsidizing orthodox jewish families, which is the main source of that growth.

Zionist isn't an ethnicity, similar to how Nazi isn't an ethnicity.

> similar to how Nazi isn't an ethnicity

The people super-focused on "Aryan heritage" didn't have an ethnic bent?

Huh. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nazi_racial_theories

Chuck Schumer supported sanctions against Ben Gvir and Smotrich and various other hostile actions during the Biden administration.

That's the "Turtle is purple ice cream 203-B" thing again. It's flatly non-responsive to the question.

FWIW, Naza appears to be a fairly in depth documentary where Israeli soldiers give detailed accounts on how the Gaza war worked from the inside, including expansive targets, and well known high civilian death toll.

My understanding is that no Israeli soldier went on record, it’s all anonymous testimonies. If these were true allegations it’s understandable why they would want to be anonymous, but obviously the Israeli government is going to figure out who was in this documentary, so it would have been more logical for them to just go on the record if these allegations were true.
