Right, right, they just proclaimed Palestine doesn’t exist:
Israeli Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich delivered a speech in Paris saying the notion of a Palestinian people was artificial.
“There is no such thing as a Palestinian nation. There is no Palestinian history. There is no Palestinian language,” he said in France late Sunday. He spoke at a lectern draped with what appeared to be an image showing the map of Israel that included the occupied West Bank, Gaza and Jordan.
If someone claims a culture doesn’t exist at all, sure sounds like they want to wipe out that culture to people who understand that it does exist.
(I found this by simply searching “Israel statements on Palestine” and it was the 2nd link. The first link had plenty of examples of Israel’s war crimes, but no direct statements from Israel. )
Ah, so a public official making it clear that want to wipe out, say, the USA, would be perfectly acceptable as long as they didn’t say they want to wipe out Caucasians?

Be aware of not confusing nation state with cultural group or ethnicity. Palestinians are basically Arabs.
The state of Israel never said that they want to wipe out another culture, like the Arabs. It is actually the other way around.
