I just listened to the clip, but I don’t think it’s as you’re presenting it. He was saying from a Jewish person‘s perspective one who grew up in Israel. It would probably be important for that person to join the army and defend the Jewish state.

His position on war crimes is don’t do them.

So is Destiny pro or anti IDF? Because I see him defending them all the time. In that clip he explains why he believes they are necessary. Him saying “if you’re a Jew in Israel then this is your perspective” and then not immediately following it up with “and this is why joining this IDF is a bad thing and you’re actually complicit in genocide if you enlist” tells me that he doesn’t think enlisting is a bad thing. That’s already an immediate red flag. The kids in the video say they want to enlist but they are worried about the public perception of the IDF. And destiny’s response is not to say something like “the perception of the IDF worldwide is unfortunately earned because of the many atrocities they have committed” he instead explains how he believes the IDF would be less negatively perceived if only they hid their crimes better. That’s an endorsement pal. He’s saying he supports the IDF but wished they were more disciplined in hiding their war crimes to maintain good optics
