Holy shit I thought this was a fake article, it’s real https://blogs.timesofisrael.com/lebensraum-needed-for-israels-exploding-population/ Edit: it has been taken down as of now, looks like it made them look too bad

Had the same reaction, the top comment on the article itself is baffled that the headline got approved by an editor.

I'm pretty sure headlines are written by the editor. The columnist doesn't get to decide what it will be.

This was from their "blogs" site which they don't control editorially, essentially self-published opinion pieces

I see. We'll that's horrible. I also see that the name of the author is not attached. Perhaps they knew what they were writing was outrageous.

The author's name is in the archive link that someone shared, he has a ton of other blog posts that are rambling and poorly written with a very strange combination of left and right ideologies

Edit: Personally, I find it quite amusing this Zionist is (apparently) a German descendant, judging by the name.

Do you think he’s just trolling as a kind of cryptic critique? Like it was done in irony?!?!??? I can’t possibly imagine someone would be this dumb????
