Again, free speech has never been the right to not be trolled, or criticized, or made fun of, or debunked. Swap out the IDF for JK Rowling or Bill Gates sending their followers at someone; there's never been a requirement for equal power between the two speakers for the right to exist.

(It's not like pg doesn't have his own resources and connections, anyways.)

A "the IDF cannot troll people on Twitter" law would seem to limit free speech, not enhance it.

You are coming up with some really spectacular arguments.

We don't have to go as far as JK Rowling or Bill Gates. There's a billionaire Harvard alumni on Twitter using his "free speech" to harass and doxx Harvard grad students right now.

PG cannot detain people or bomb settlements. IDF can and does. They are not merely trolling here.
