Nobody wants to deal with the fact that he’s a significant part of the current government that is actually making decisions, I guess.

There is no panic and no strawman. The whole discussion started when WCW asserted that Ben Gvir’s comments amounted to “for anyone who still thinks this war is about just eliminating Hamas”, somewhat implying that this is the prevailing view.

My point is that Ben Gvir is a fringe element of the government and his views, while extreme, are not representative of the majority. I’m not sure why this is hard to understand. As blankall pointed out, the Israeli government is very fractured.

Frankly, I cringe whenever I see anything said by Ben Gvir or Smotrich.
