Yes there are people out there, but who are those people? One one side you have edgy 19 year olds who are "pro-hamas" who will probably never even see an AK-47 up close. On the other side you have Isreali ministers, with direct access to Bibi Netanyahu, who are calling to nuke gaza, a claim so violent and egregious, that the Russian government had to take the claim seriously.
It's very scary that the voices of the most violent nobodies on the largely pro-Palestinian, anti-genocide side get amplified, but literal members of the Isreali government calling for dropping nukes get swept under the rug. Being pro-hamas is in no way a mainstream position. To call "bullshit" so strongly when the other side is literally threatening to use nukes is insane.

Amichay Eliyahu is the "minister of heritage" e.g. someone with no military involvement and a position so pointless it's been left vacant for decades before. Regardless of that, he wasn't suggesting to do it, he was asked if it was an option and, yes, it is technically an option, albeit a completely horrific and bad one. Regardless of all of that, he made the comments in an interview on a Sunday morning and was fired on Monday, as he should have been. Nothing he did was swept under the rug, it was swiftly and roundly dealt with. When was the last time you saw someone in palestinian society be so quickly condemned for chanting the far more genocidal "from the river to the sea" ?
