Same reason Nazi Germany killed people with intellectual and/or physical disabilities at the beginning of the holocaust.

They killed him because they could, destroying anyone who is different is what fascist do.

As other’s have mentioned, it’s what the Nazi’s did.

It’s the whole cycle of violence thing. The Nazi’s did it to the Jews, who were less powerful than them. And now the Jews are passing it along to a people that are less powerful than they are.

Jews have long been proud of their tradition of questioning and reasoning. What I want to hear is Netanyahu in court explaining why his government did this. And it has to be more than a “they did it first” argument.

Comments are misinformation.

They didn't kill him because he has down syndrome. They killed him because he's Palestinian.

Dont confuse Trump and Hitler and Netanyaho. They have different motives for the genocides they commit.
