Moshe Saada is a member of Likud. He’s not from a fringe right wing party, he’s from Netanyahu’s own party.
I mean, it’s not surprising that someone from Likud is explicitly genocidal, as that is pretty standard. But let’s not cast this as the fringes of Israeli society having disproportionate influence due to coalition or anything.

I'd say it's shocking that the far right have come to power. One of the risks of coalition governments I guess.
Sadly I don't find it the least bit surprising that a far right extremist is proposing genocide. I also don't believe that it has any connection to the Hamas attacks beyond being an opportunist political move (like any other in history) . If anything the Hamas attacks are probably the best thing the far right could have wished for - "oh look, it's not the knock-on effect of filling posts with incompetent boot-lickers and missing the warnings, or years of Settler expansion that's the problem. It's the very existence of another group of people".
