No, it is not.
It is the kind of extremism that causes major wars. There is nothing remotely legitimate, or political, about it.
Thinking the state of Israel
should not have been created is an acceptable judgment of history. I hope that’s what you were driving at. Nevertheless that view can only endure as an assessment of historical events and it absolutely cannot be used to advance the idea that a modern, democratic nation state, that participates in normal international bodies and conventions, would be better off extinct. What you consider to be virtue-signalling words on an Internet forum, others take as legitimising their desire to commit genocide.
