Well, better a stupid teenager than a stupid adult. There is hope. Not much, but a little at least.
Edge Lord asked for that
The moron would fit in with the Government of Putin and Hitler was part Jewish.
Fuck Israel
Personally knowing some young Israeli’s.
A lot of them don’t take the holocaust very seriously and tend to joke about it a lot, (maybe it’s a coping mechanism)? In any case, this is probably a case of an edgy high schooler trying to make their friends laugh.
Fun fact Israelis in large part are not and were not German Jewish immigrants from WW2 and in fact there was a large vocal cadre of actual Holocaust survivors that weren't and aren't in favor of Israel as a country created in the mandate of Palestine in large part because of the whole terrorism and murdering Muslims thing.
More like they deminish it so its not a big deal so they can execute Holocaust 2.0 Palestinian Boogaloo.
Could be a coping mechanism. If they took it seriously they would probably have to reflect about the similarities between the Nazis and Israel.
could be a coping mechanism
it's not. it's just a nazi do'in nazi shit.
It’s not that deep. Lots of teenagers do edgy stuff just because it’s edgy and not allowed.
He’ll look back in 10 years cringing about himself.
zionists do not regret being nazis. they just do more nazi shit.
The world is not that black and white my dude, go outside sometimes

It makes sense, essentially by remaining oblivious and reductive about one act you can then allow yourself to also be blind to your own current amoral actions. Essentially it's easier to stay dense than it is to actually face the reality you are a part of.
no. No I think they know what side of that conflict they would have been on. because it's the side their ancestors were on-literally, look at what the zionists were doing during the run-up to world war two. it's so bad. then look at how they treated holocaust survivors after. also not great.
Fuck around and find out
Are they sending their youth to teach them how to deal with Palestinians?

No need to put a stupid teenager in prison for a longer time for being stupid, but: A day or two behind bars on top of the fine might have had a better educational effect.
Put him in the middle of Gaza with no help and see how funny he finds himself.
Are you suggesting something bad would happen to a teenage Israeli student if he happened to be in the middle of Gaza with no help? Curious.
Not per se, bit he'd have a more poignant look at persecution and extermination of people. If historical evidence falls to impress him maybe direct confrontation with violence might connect to his synapses
I took it as "Put him, alone, in the middle of people his country is currently genociding so so he can see the horrors of Genocide, the kind his own people once faced. This should reframe why his Nazi salute was a poor decision." But I can see how it can be interpreted the other way by looking at the "with no help" part.
He didn't do it on accident and was fully aware of what he was doing and where he was doing it. Lock that scum up I say.

This is an idiotic teenager and should have no bearing on your opinion of Israel. (I shouldn't have to say this, but if I don't somebody will m'accuse: please note that I'm not defending Israel.)
