Quite, so kill every firstborn before they come after me?

This cannot be the will of the Jewish diaspora

I'd edit this if I were you.

The 'will of the Jewish diaspora' isn't some monolithic world view. Particularly in the US Jews have been leading the protests against Israel's attacks on Gaza and there has been a Jewish bloc at the London demonstrations for example. Jewish opposition to Zionism has always existed and Jews play a prominent role today in criticising the political ideology of Zionism and the actions of the state of Israel.

I think it’s ok. I read it as being: it’s nonsense to say ‘extreme statement x is the will of the diaspora’.

Just as it was nonsense to say x is the will of Palestinians in the Gaza Strip (on the last page).

I understand how it could be read differently though (so perhaps worth an edit anyway).

Yeah fair enough, I can see it that way too.
