The discussion was about whether or not it’s immoral or hateful to say “Death to the IDF”. You said the guy was hateful. In light of an active genocide, I’m saying it is the moral position to take, to hope for military victory against the IDF. All the details are for the purpose of elucidating this point. Even still, “Death to the IDF” means the organization, it doesn’t have to mean killing anyone. Though that’s unlikely.
The “real issues”? What are the real issues you are referring to that I am avoiding?
Oh, wow! Look at those goalposts change again! You really don’t see the irony, do you? Suddenly the call to violence is actually just a metaphorical call to violence against an organization that definitely doesn’t consist of humans who will die because of this rhetoric. I urge you to look into the concept of cognitive dissonance; I think you’ll find that it’s quite a good fit for your perspectives.

It’s not as catchy to chant “Kill the Genociding Soldiers!” But that would have been popular too probably. Still not hateful.
Right, because killing is never hateful.
