...not wrong. Except remember that an idea cannot be genuinely destroyed, since it's not an actual physical thing. Even if you did somehow manage to destroy it in the present day, nothing prevents people from creatively coming up with it again.

Netanyahu wants to learn this the hard way.

Find another way that doesn't involve death, destruction and ill-fated attempts at control.

A platitude. The fascists are already trying to kill us, we need to fight back. Both sides are not the same.

Not a platitude, a harsh and brutal reality. Though I do agree that it is time to fight fascism. Just don't think you can actually destroy it by fighting like this is all some fictional story with a happily-ever-after. Real life doesn't work that way, only fiction.

Real life needs more difficult and complicated fixes.

Netanyahu knows. It's how that corrupt bastard stays in power and out of prison.
