In this sense, the fantasy of immunity granted by the army runs even deeper in the Zionist left than on the right. The right’s answer to its security anxiety is annihilation and ethnic cleansing — that’s its endgame. But the center-left places its faith almost entirely in the army’s supposedly limitless capabilities. Without question, the Jewish center-left in Israel worships the military far more fervently than the right, which treats it merely as a tool to execute its vision of destruction and ethnic cleansing.
What's the bet they're talking about Liberals and not Leftists.
It's not really "hubris". Zionism is a genocidal cult. It's just doing what it was designed to do. Maybe the founders of zionism were hubristic but they've been achieving their stated goals for more than a hundred years. Why stop now when the genocide is really rolling?
