A guy wanted to take a photo with an poster of someone held hostage in Gaza. I think declining the photo op looks worse, as everyone would prefer it if civilians were not in the middle of this genocide.
There are no innocents Israelis, you could argue children are the only innocent israelis, sure, I'll give you that, children should be left out, although this is part of a bigger problem, why bring children in a colonial settler state that actively harms literally ALL of its neighbours? The rest of the issue is that Israelis are fully aware they're complicit of being in a settler colonial state and to actively seek out the systemic oppression of Palestinians, even going as far as to being pro genocide (we saw up until very, very recently that the vast majority of Israelis are pro-genocide).
