A taste of their own medicine, they call it.
Amid the ongoing genocide in Gaza in which Israel has killed an estimated 200,000 Palestinians, most of them civilians and flattened much of the densely populated strip, a home to more than two million people, it’s hardly surprising that Israelis don’t get any sympathy from the world when they circulate images of wrecked buildings and charred vehicles hit by Iranian missiles in Israeli cities.
The latest fatalities in Israel, reported by Israel’s national emergency services, raised its death toll to 23 since Friday. Israeli attacks in Iran have killed at least 224 people since Friday, Iran’s health ministry has said.
After watching prolonged and brutal military operations against Gaza, social media users often seem to be found relishing seeing Israel experiencing fear and a sense of insecurity for the first time.

Numerous videos are circulating on international media and social platforms showing Israeli civilians taking shelter in underground bunkers and appearing fearful of Iranian missile strikes.
Amid this situation, Israel is facing widespread ridicule across the world. In this context, a song titled “Boom Boom Tel Aviv” has gone viral on social media.

The lyrics specifically criticize Israel and Tel Aviv, saying that Israel is now facing the consequences of its own actions. The song claims that while Israel once rejoiced over the killing of innocent children in Gaza, it is now its own turn to bleed.
