Israel’s policies take more from Nazi German occupational practices than Nazi German domestic race laws (which are what drew from the ‘Jim Crow’ laws of the US South).
Dismantling all relevant institutions and starving the occupied population en masse, proclaiming how ‘humane’ your treatment is to the international community whilst laughing at the deaths of ‘subhumans’ in domestic propaganda, and engaging in intermittent ‘bandit hunting’ campaigns that target almost exclusively civilians, with the end goal of achieving a reduced enough population for colonist ‘lebensraum’.
It would probably be more accurate to connect late 19th century US policy towards Native Americans with this chain, rather than Jim Crow.

As someone whose family was impacted by those bullshit politics,
Thank you. This isn’t an apt comparison, at all. American/Indian genocide is more on point.
