I think it all follows the same structure. There's an imagined wholeness and peace that was beset by something alien, eliminating that alien threat will get us back to how things were. In case of Israel for example, things were great before October 7th and then something was introduced and we need to eliminate it. The imagined wholeness is always a fascistic nostalgia for a state that never was, and the alien threat element is a scapegoat for the problems they don't wanna face. Genocide is the fascistic structure taken to its limit. We find this now in Trump's rhetoric about how things were great before the alien emigrants and how getting rid of them will turn us into this imagined state of wholeness and belonging, it's always scapegoating and focusing internal issues on one group in order to avoid facing them.
