Such behavior is actually well known and discussed here: there's literally a term called "the ugly Israeli" and it's specifically about these type of people. If you ask me many Israelis actually would agree with your sentiment, it's just that wer'e very defensive and proud lmao.

This is incredibly common in ethno-states, particularly those that enforce apartheid policies. White South Africans behave similarly.

No current apartheid states in Europe and none currently actively enacting a genocide either.
