Yes, because the extremist settlers exist in a void. Let us lay blame onto the resistance groups for not being perfect victims rather than the people that founded their state and continue to perpetuate it through the mass murder, theft, rape, torture, subjugation and oppression of the Palestinian people. All the citizens of Israel are free of guilt, responsibility, and consequence despite the fact that they are not only benefactors of their genocidal state but also overwhelmingly (~72% as of March) support Israel's crimes against the people of Gaza.

Realistically speaking, if Israel was tried and given the same treatment as the Germans were in the Nuremberg trials, there would not be enough free Zionists to even put up a facade of a state.
