"Israel has to do genocide or the people Israel funded might to genocide"
You know Israel could just try to be a pluralistic society that doesn't do genocide or apartheid right? But then it wouldn't really be Israel would it?
How exactly could Israel try to be a pluralistic society? Neither side will accept a one state solution.
Well, Israel could start funding socialist opposition who wouldn't do sectarian violence to them if apartheid ended. It worked with Hamas, it should work the other way around.
And other things that won't happen because again, Israel is a settler colonialist ethnostate bent on exterminating Palestinians.
No amount of money is going to change attitudes that severely without some sort of forced indoctrination. It didn't work with Hamas, their attitude was there from the start, and years of Israeli and Iranian funding has only helped them remain one of the major Palestinian political organisations.
And please, Israel is an apartheid state sure, no arguments here, but the Palestinian population is one of the fasted growing in the world. They are entirely at the mercy of the Israeli state, and if the Israeli goal were to exterminate them as you say, they would have had some results in the past seventy years.
