In an episode of Two Nice Jewish Boys, which aired three weeks ago, host Weinstein said: “If you gave me a button to just erase Gaza, every single living being in Gaza would no longer be living tomorrow. I would press it in a second.”
He claimed that “most Israelis” would do the same.
Meningher added that they would also want to wipe out Palestinians in “the territories”.
The clip of Weinstein and Meningher lauding the idea of all five million Palestinians in the Gaza Strip and West Bank being wiped out has drawn fierce criticism online.
“Radio Rwanda in full effect here. This is deeply disturbing,” journalist Samira Mohyedeen wrote on X, referring to the broadcasts that incited genocide against the Tutsis during the 1994 Rwandan genocide.
Someone will unironically post this as though that’s not what every member of Hamas means when they say “from the River to the Sea.”
Yes, this guy is an asshole. Yes, there are assholes in every political group. Yes, there are podcasters in YOUR country calling for genocide of some group.
How does anything Hamas are doing have any bearing on this guy openly broadcasting his genocidal fantasy?
Palestinians have a right to resist occupation and colonialism.
"Yeah these guys are calling for literal Genocide, but that’s what “from the river to the sea means!”
What an incredibly weird whataboutism and wild claim to make without evidence.
Meningher has done actual media for Netanyahu’s campaigns.
